Books Turning Into Movies or TV Series in 2019

Picture
Unlike me, you probably have time to watch grownup TV and/or Movies.  Now-a-days all I watch is PBS kids shows.  If for some reason the other adult is able to wrestle the remote away suddenly I'm watching sports.  Needless to say I'm not winning.  Some people have suggested that when she is down for the night I should watch something.  Let me just say, by the time I'm laying in my bed after going into her room dozens of times because she wants water, she thinks she needs to pee (nope, she doesn't) or she needs to remind me I said I would check on her later, I've fallen asleep.

Here is a list of books/comics being turned into movies or TV series this year.  You still have time to read the books before the movie comes out.  Enjoy!
