The Unlikely Librarian: Upcoming Books to Movies!

So at work the other day I decided to put together a book to movie display and while doing some very important research, I couldn't believe all of the book -> movies coming out in the next couple of years! Some of them haven’t been “green-lighted” yet, but all of them do have some sort of “movie deal”. I have read quite a few of them already like:

Laini Taylor’s Daughter of Smoke and Bone

Madeleine L’Engle’s A Wrinkle in Time

Markus Zusak’s The Book Thief

Veronica Roth’s Divergent

Lowry’s The Giver

Libba Bray’s A Great and Terrible Beauty

Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby

Suzanne Colin’s Catching Fire

Ally Condie’s Matched

Ransom Rigg’s Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children

Melissa Marr’s Wicked Lovely

(Unfortunately)Stephenie Meyer’s The Host

I’d have to say I’m most excited for Cassandra Clare’s City of Bones to come out! I love Lily Collins, but I despise who they picked for the heartthrob of the series Jace. He is seriously my number 1 of all time bookman, but he is soo not what I pictured. So no matter what you do…DO NOT look him up online or watch the movie before you read this series. It will ruin so, so, so much.

I’m also really, really excited for The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern whenever it gets made. It was easily my favorite book of 2012.

And I can’t wait for Percy Jackson and the Sea of Monsters to come out, since I did like Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief even if it wasn’t like Riordan’s book AT ALL. The movie setting the book aside was entertaining.
