Hey Netflix! These books are READY!

After all the recent announcements and film adaptations, we’ve been thinking it’s time to put together a list of nominations for what hits the screen next. Because between Beasts of Prey getting picked up by Netflix, Vampire Academy getting picked up by Peacock, and There’s Someone Inside Your House JUST hitting screens this month, we have some requests!

 

An Ember in the Ashes by Sabaa Tahir

If we’ve said it once, we’ve said it a thousand times. But we just KNOW an adaptation of this series has the potential to raise Game of Thrones levels of obsession.

 

The Falling Girls by Hayley Krischer

Shadow & Bone proved Netflix can do a fantasy mini series right, so we’d respectfully like to nominate this book before it even hits shelves. Because we promise, between the Indiana Jones vibes and Sleeping Beauty retelling, you’re going to be obsessed.

 

Hotel Magnifique by Emily J. Taylor – Coming March, 2022

We know this one hasn’t hit shelves yet, but a magical traveling hotel is something we NEED both on our shelves and on our screens.
