If you’re a reader who loves seeing your favorite books come to life on screen, there’s something especially fun about a good book-to-movie adaptation. You get the familiar characters and story you loved in the book, but with a completely different experience.

And Netflix has plenty to choose from, from cozy romances and coming-of-age stories to mysteries, thrillers, classics, and fantasy. Netflix itself has a dedicated Movies Based on Books category with dozens of adaptations.
