17 YA Book Adaptations Readers Would Rather See Onscreen Than Another "Harry Potter" Or "Twilight" Adaptation

1 year ago 2

In our current entertainment landscape of never-ending remakes and reboots, it truly seems like there is nothing new under the sun. For example, Max recently announced its plans to adapt Harry Potter into a TV series, and Lionsgate Television reportedly has a potential Twilight show in the works.

However, if TV and movie studios looked past the same franchises that were popular 10 or 20 years ago, then they'd find so many amazing stories that fans would love to see onscreen. So, I asked the BuzzFeed Community which YA books and series they think deserve TV adaptations.

Note: The comments on the original post had so many great suggestions that are actually already in development (like A Good Girl's Guide to Murder by Holly Jackson and Amari and the Night Brothers by B.B. Alston), so they haven't been included here. But definitely keep an eye out for them onscreen!

Here are 17 of their top answers:

17. And finally, Gone by Michael Grant
