Streaming services such as Netflix have been constantly churning out new TV shows over the past couple of years. Many of these have been adaptations of books old and new such as those on Bookvus. While adaptations don’t always work out, it can be interesting to see how it translates to the small screen. Here are some of the TV shows adapted from books that are headed your way in 2021.
The One – Netflix
This new show based on the book of the same name by John Marrs, puts you in a world where DNA can show you who your ideal partner is. Unsurprisingly, this creates a ripple effect with those existing couples who start to doubt their original choices.
Shadow and Bone – Netflix
The adaptation of Leigh Bardugo's Grishaverse novels has caused a lot of excitement among fans of her books. Producers have chosen to use largely up-and-coming actors as well which will bring less distraction from past roles. You can catch up on Bardugo’s novels on Bookvus. The series is due to air on April 23rd.
The Underground Railroad - Prime video
Adapted from the novel of the same name by Colston Whitehead, it follows a girl as she escapes a Georgian plantation and finds an underground railroad. Unknown to her, a bounty hunter is hot on her trail, tasked with bringing her back. This mini-series has no confirmed release date in 2021 yet.
You can find these and many other novels when you check out the library on Bookvus.
