Netflix is making it easier to crack open a new book-to-screen adaptation with a new dedicated hub called “Watch Your Favorite Books.”
The destination for book adaptations is available globally starting today on the Netflix homepage, through search or at netflix.com/books. Nine reader types organize titles based on your preferred genres and styles, including “You’re a Nonfiction Fanatic,” “You Love a Great Plot Twist,” “You Savor Swoonworthy Romances” and “You Collect Manga and Comics.” It isn’t the only fan-inspired collection you’ll find on the streaming service — you can also check out the astrology hub Your Zodiac Watchlist.
“We’ve seen a real passion from fans around Netflix’s library of book adaptations,” Mansi Patel, Netflix’s senior director of product merchandising, said in a statement. “Our team looked to celebrate that fandom by creating a destination on Netflix for enthusiasts to explore their favorites and find more stories they’ll love.”
In addition to Bridgerton and the Guillermo del Toro-directed Frankenstein, more book adaptations set to hit Netflix this year include the film The Whisper Man and the series East of Eden, starring Florence Pugh. A subscription runs $9 per month for Standard with ads, $20 per month for Standard and $27 per month for Premium.
