Movies into other media

Hi folks!

This month I've been working on a books that were made into movies of TV shows. Given this year that we've already had A Wrinkle In Time and Ready Player One hit the big screen, it seemed like a good time for this list.

It's a shorter list, as I've had other commitments, and will continue to add to the list as I have time.

I've also been updating the Historical fiction list, too.

Without further ado:

I'm working on a list of LGBTQIA+ books for next month.

Ta!

Some people have asked about historical fiction for middle to high schoolers, so I started compiling a list of Historical Fiction for about grades 6-12. (About.) I've tried to see what reviews have suggested the book for, but don't take that as hard and fast. If your kid wants to read something, let them. As my friend mentioned, Homeschoolers don't always have an idea of what grade translates to what age, since homeschoolers may not follow the same format as institutional school. As a general rule, in 12th grade, children turn 18. So, the grade plus six (or the child's age minus five or six, depending on if they've had their birthday yet during the school year), will give you about what age is in that grade. I'll be updating this as I go, but figured others might find it useful. Check back, and see what's been added. Other quick notes: SLJ refers to School Library Journal, and their recommendations are done by grade. BL refers to BookList, and their ...

YA titles dealing with Mental Illness

This is a list of titles for teens/young adults (YA) that have at least one character that deals with a mental illness, be it the main character or a major supporting one. Again, many thanks to Bri Saab for all their help. You, my dear, are amazing. As always, these lists are works in progress. I'll try to keep them updated over the coming months/years, as well as flesh out some more of the titles on the list. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/150mFjRST6kwaogCODBWK3ziwL6QL3P-Bb1rBfiWass4/edit?usp=sharing

Why I'm dreading the new Wrinkle in Time movie

Image
There's several big (named) reasons that I'm dreading the new Wrinkle In Time movie. Now, this is the book (series) that more than anything got me into SciFiFan. While most of my friends will point to Tolkein or Lewis as the books that got them started, I can in through L'Engle. Specifically Meg Murray. Now, you might think I have a problem with the young actress playing Meg, and the only problem I have with her (is the same problem I have with the movie version of Hermoine) is that she's too adorable/attractive. Meg is an ugly duckling. She's gangly, and awkward, and smart, and will grow into her self and who she is, but first, she has to learn to accept her faults and herself. She doesn't have to be perfect, she just has to be herself, and true to herself. So, until  I see the movie, that's my biggest problem with her. She's too adorable. (I'm guessing that they're going to be using race as what makes her awkward, instead of the typical ...
