Top Ten Book To Movie Adaptations I'm Looking Forward To

There are actually going to be some of my favorites coming to the big screens soon! And when I say soon, I unfortunately mean a couple years from now. But that's okay right? I can always wait? (No I cannot). I guess the only thing I have to worry about is the casting. Will the cast fit my favorite characters? WILL THEY? I guess we'll find out!

Also, I have no idea whether any of these are confirmed? I'm pretty sure most of them are?

Daughter of Smoke & Bone by Laini Taylor - I would pay with everything I have to watch this now. I literally do not know HOW they will create this film because it just seems so complicated! I guess it will all be CGI basically? STILL WANNA SEE IT.

The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater - Oh man the casting will have to be perfect for this!

The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry - Need I say more than watch this trailer?

All The Bright Places by Jennifer Niven - I'm pretty sure Jennifer Niven was going to be her own screenwriter, but who knows?

Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo - I didn't know this would be an option! I badly wish for this to happen! (And then I'll have to finish the series).

Unwind by Neal Shusterman - I HAD NO IDEA THIS WAS GOING TO BE A THING EITHER. Man Shannon must be really happy that this is an option.

Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs - This is in development I'm pretty sure? I have read this a long time ago, but I did enjoy it, so I do want to see where they take it.

The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman - IF THIS IS GOING TO BE A MOVIE I WILL BE SO FREAKING EXCITED. I loved this book. Did I mention that? This reminds me that I need to get my hands on the graphic novel.

The BFG by Roald Dahl - I could've SWORN I saw some animated version of this book when I was younger and in elementary school. BUT OK I will take the live action version!

I skipped out on #10 because I am still confused on what is confirmed and what is optioned. I don't want to get my hopes up ahahah.

What movies are you looking forward to?

So I haven't read any of those. All the Bright Places is on my list to get to before the end of the year though. My top ones to look forward to are The Girl on the Train and Me Before You. Great list!!!

I've heard about Me Before You! I have yet to read though, even though it isn't in my comfort zone I think. But still, WILL HAVE TO GET TO IT!

If the Grisha Trilogy are made into movies I would freak out (in a good way). To see that world come to life would be so amazing. I just hope that they wouldn't mess it up.

I didn't either until now! It might just be an option though, but hopefully it will get to the big screen!

Oh I had no idea Shadow and Bone was optioned!!! I just read the trilogy recently and would love to see it adapted. It would be so awesome to see the Grisha powers on screen! And I'm soooo looking forward to Miss Peregrine's! It might be my most anticipated right now.

I didn't realise there was a trailer for The Little Prince movie? WHAT IS LIFE? WHY DOES IT LOOK SO MARVELLOUS?
And forget about the Grisha movie, I need them to promptly move on and just make Six of Crows into a movie already, I love it so much, and the plot is obviously MADE for cinematography magic? YES?
Unwind would be freaking terrifying as a movie. I am still scarred from reading *that* scene.

Unwind would scar me for life. I don't even know how that is going to be general admission. Maybe pg13? Man. AND YES JUST SKIP TO SIX OF CROWS. That would be amazing.

I cannot wait for The Little Prince movie, I NEED IT IN MY LIFE

WAIT THE RAVEN BOYS HAS BEEN OPTIONED? gah, they better not ruin the casting. THEY BETTER NOT. Also same with Daughter of Smoke and Bone, I had no idea. I'm assuming most of these have just been optioned and aren't becoming movies anytime soon. ALSO I AM SO EXCITED FOR MISS PEREGRINE'S. I adored that book. (I haven't read the rest, except ATBP and I'm excited for that movie as well).

YES I AM PRETTY SURE IT HAS BEEN OPTIONED. MAYBE. Whatever. And yeah, I swear if anyone ruins my beautiful books, I will hurt someone...in my head.....internally.
