It’s September 23 and you know what that means: summer is officially over and it’s autumn’s time to shine. Out of the many reasons to love the fall (cool weather, scarves, plaid, pumpkin spice EVERYTHING), one of my favourites is the kick-off of the new movie season. It’s time for our beloved superheroes and engineered dinosaurs to take a seat and open up the floor to more serious fare. It’s time for the “award season” to begin. Of course, each year this season dependably serves us several book adaptations, and this year is no different. So what are some adaptations to look out for? In the interest of keeping the list relatively short, I’ve left out the obvious blockbusters (The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2 and The Martian). Remember, you can always check out a copy of the books at your local VPL branch before they hit the big screen!
