Robin Hobbs the live ship traders trilogy
I’ve not read these yet but I have one lined up for this year 🙂
Yada Yada Prayer Group series by Neta Jackson
Patrick Kenzie / Angela Gennaro series by Dennis Lehane.
Definitely the Red Rising series by Pierce Brown. Technically it is supposed to be made into a movie and it’s had a director for a couple years, but that’s all so far.
Stanley Park by Timothy Taylor
Great question, but is it weird to say nothing because the books are always better?!???♀️…maybe Stephanie Plum Series
One for the Money was made into a movie but it seemed to end there
I always wanted Bitten to be made into a TV show…..then it was. So much disappointment.
The Alex Delaware books by Jonathan Kellerman and more of Jeffrey Deaver’s Lincoln Rhyme books – as far as I know only The Bone Collector made it to the big screen.
Any of Kristen Ashley’s series. Love her style.
The Guardians by Lola Stvil.
Honestly nothing. Not to be negative but Hollywood chooses name celebrities and social justice over staying true to source material.
The Gone Series or The Forest of Hands and Teeth Series!!! ????
WOULD LOVE TO SEE THE GONE SERIES DONE
Would be so good!!! ??? Why hasnt it been done is my question!
Clan of the cave Bear as a (very long) series or I am Legend the way Richard Matheson actually wrote it. The film was great but so far from the actual book it shouldn’t really have been called by that name. Or maybe Eva by Peter Dickenson.
I would love Clan of the cave bear too there was a film out with Daryl Hannah as Ayla which wasn’t bad but not the rest of the series ?
I saw the film, it wasn’t too bad. If they did them Peter Jackson would need to direct them.
Ghost whisperer was,enjoyed both books and series.
39 clues? I’m interested
Women’s murder mystery club!
CJ Box’s Joe Pickett Series
Randy Wayne White’s Doc Ford Series
The shoemakers wife
C J Sansom’s Shardlake series
Yes!
OMG that would be brilliant.
Die and go to heaven if this was made into a series, but who to play the great man and who to play his assistant, and who would you have play Sir Richard
The name of the wind and wise man’s fear by Patrick rothfuss would be amazing to see
Fitz and the fool books, Robin Hobb. The live ship and the dragon traders books fall in between those as well so your could do them with it. I would love to see Raymond E Feist books in live action but there are lots of them!
Bud, Not Buddy
The Racketeer
I am Pilgrim
This would be an awesome film.
MGM have bought the rights. They are in the process of making it!
Rivers of London – Ben aaronovitch

Ooh yes, I’m reading Moon Over Soho at the moment
I enjoyed that, it could make a good movie

The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant by Stephen R Donaldson has anyone else read them? Wonderful ?

I Heart series by Lindsey Kelk
the Joshua series by Joseph girzone and this present darkness and piercing the darkness by Frank Peretti
Skulduggery Pleasant or Artemis Fowl. I was going to say the Reacher series but bloody Tom Cruise is already butchering those.
YES to Skulduggery Pleasant love love love that series, got Artemis Fowl for Christmas so looking forward to starting those
Might seem bizarre but These Old Shades by Georgette Heyer! Not normally my genre but my sister and I have read all her Regency novels over and over again. Predictable ending always but light hearted easy reading. Would love to see the characters come to life
I’ve always wondered why there have been no adaptations of Georgette Heyer’s books.
Me too @Rachel. So sweet and innocent!
Penryn And The End Of Days trilogy by Susan Ee, Wicked Lovely series by Melissa Marr, Wolves Of Mercy Falls series by Maggie Stiefvater, Ben Hope series by Scott Mariani, Chaos Walking trilogy by Patrick Ness, The Gatekeepers series by Anthony Horowitz. Would love to say Black Dagger Brotherhood, Lords Of The Underworld, Dark Hunter, Dark Carpathian, Ghostwalkers, Psy-Changling, Guild Hunter but those are probably a little too racy to be made lol
Elvis Cole and Joe Pike books but I know they’d be crap and so does the author which is why he refuses to let them! I was so excited when I heard they were making Agatha Raisin and then gutted as they made her blonde instead of dark as it’s such an easy thing to do!
The nightingale or Eleanor Oliphant is completely fine.
This man by @Jodi ❤??
Kim Harrison the hollows series
Body and Soul, by Ryan Guth. From the publisher’s page for the book: “When the deaths of her ex-convict father and pedophile grandfather trigger a flood of repressed sex-abuse memories from her childhood, divorcee Cassandra Hart descends into alcoholism and destructive sexual relationships, until repeated DUI convictions finally land her in a court-ordered treatment facility. There she begins – reluctantly at first – the hard work of physical and psychological recovery. As she learns to trust her own spiritual inclinations and her capacity for self-reinvention, she is ultimately able to reclaim her life and achieve a long-delayed moral victory over her abusers. Within this narrative framework of verse, prose, and other hybrid forms, author Ryan Guth has interspersed other lyrics exploring the quintessentially southwestern mix of Hispanic, Anglo and Pueblo lore which informs Cassandra’s personal theology and sense of self.”
