8 Boekverfilmingen in 2018 waarvan ik het boek nog wil lezen!

In 2018 komen er weer een aantal films uit waarvan ik het boek nog wil lezen. Sinds ik weer meer aan het lezen ben, ben ik dol op boekverfilmingen. En alhoewel ik nog geen film gevonden heb, die beter is dan het boek, kan ik hier toch wel van genieten. Deze boekverfilmingen in 2018 zet ik in ieder geval op mijn lijstje!

Of het me ook daadwerkelijk lukt om ze in 2018 te lezen weet ik niet, maar ik ga mijn best doen. Zoals je in mijn Reading Challenges kon lezen, doe ik dit jaar mee met de Book to Movie Reading Challenge (#Book2MovieRC) van Gather Together and Read. Hierin heb ik mezelf sowieso uitgedaagd om drie boeken te lezen, waarvan ik vervolgens ook de film moet kijken. Het meisje in de trein heb ik al gelezen en kan niet wachten om de film te zien!

Boekverfilmingen in 2018

Illuminae by Amie Kaufman, Jay Kristoff

This morning, Kady thought breaking up with Ezra was the hardest thing she’d have to do. This afternoon, her planet was invaded.

The year is 2575, and two rival megacorporations are at war over a planet that’s little more than an ice-covered speck at the edge of the universe. Too bad nobody thought to warn the people living on it. With enemy fire raining down on them, Kady and Ezra—who are barely even talking to each other—are forced to fight their way onto an evacuating fleet, with an enemy warship in hot pursuit.

But their problems are just getting started. A deadly plague has broken out and is mutating, with terrifying results; the fleet's AI, which should be protecting them, may actually be their enemy; and nobody in charge will say what’s really going on. As Kady hacks into a tangled web of data to find the truth, it's clear only one person can help her bring it all to light: the ex-boyfriend she swore she'd never speak to again.

BRIEFING NOTE: Told through a fascinating dossier of hacked documents—including emails, schematics, military files, IMs, medical reports, interviews, and more—Illuminae is the first book in a heart-stopping, high-octane trilogy about lives interrupted, the price of truth, and the courage of everyday heroes.

Over deze serie heb ik zo enorm veel goede verhalen gehoord. Ik ben dol op sci-fi! Er zijn ondertussen al drie boeken. Binnenkort wordt de eerste, Illuminae verfilmd. Hoogste tijd om de serie te lezen dus!

[divider] Every Day by David Levithan
Gepubliceerd door Electric Monkey (Egmont Books) op 2 september 2013
Genres: Young Adult

Every day I am someone else. I am myself - I know I am myself - but I am also someone else. It has always been like this.

Each morning, A wakes up in a different body. There's never any warning about who it will be, but A is used to that. Never get too attached. Avoid being noticed. Do not interfere. And that's fine - until A wakes up in the body of Justin and meets Justin's girlfriend, Rhiannon. From that moment, the rules by which A has been living no longer apply.

Dit klinkt als een leuk romantisch verhaal met een twist. Dus deze gaat op mijn lijstje!

[divider] Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard
Gepubliceerd door HarperTeen op 7 juni 2016
Genres: Fantasy
Pagina's: 388
Bol.com | Goodreads

Victoria Aveyard’s internationally beloved #1 New York Times bestseller is now in paperback!

Mare Barrow’s world is divided by blood—those with common, Red blood serve the Silver-blooded elite, who are gifted with superhuman abilities. Mare is a Red, scraping by as a thief in a poor, rural village, until a twist of fate throws her in front of the Silver court. There, before the king, princes, and all the nobles, she discovers she has an ability of her own.

To cover up this impossibility, the king forces her to play the role of a lost Silver princess, and betroths her to one of his own sons. As Mare is drawn further into the Silver world, she risks everything and uses her new position to help the Scarlet Guard—a growing Red rebellion—even as her heart tugs her in an impossible direction. One wrong move can lead to her death, but in the dangerous game she plays the only certainty is betrayal.

This sweeping story of palace intrigue, class hierarchy, and deception will keep readers hurtling along, desperate to find out Mare’s fate. Her honesty and determination, quick wit, and no-holds-barred attitude will surely make readers fall in love with her.

Ook over deze serie heb ik veel goede dingen gehoord en gelezen. Tijd om deze op te pakken!

[divider] The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken
Gepubliceerd door Disney-Hyperion op 22 oktober 2013

Bol.com | Goodreads

When Ruby woke up on her tenth birthday, something about her had changed. Something frightening enough to make her parents lock her in the garage and call the police. Something that got her sent to Thurmond, a brutal government “rehabilitation camp.” She might have survived the mysterious disease that had killed most of America’s children, but she and the others emerged with something far worse: frightening abilities they could not control.

Now sixteen, Ruby is one of the dangerous ones. When the truth comes out, Ruby barely escapes Thurmond with her life. She is on the run, desperate to find the only safe haven left for kids like her—East River. She joins a group of kids who have escaped their own camp. Liam, their brave leader, is falling hard for Ruby. But no matter how much she aches for him, Ruby can’t risk getting close. Not after what happened to her parents. When they arrive at East River, nothing is as it seems, least of all its mysterious leader. But there are other forces at work, people who will stop at nothing to use Ruby in their fight against the government. Ruby will be faced with a terrible choice, one that may mean giving up her only chance at having a life worth living.

Ik had me eerder dit jaar al voorgenomen om deze serie te lezen en de boeken aan mijn Goodreads lijstje toegevoegd. Nu ik zie dat het eerste deel verfilmd wordt, kan ik helemaal niet meer wachten om het te lezen!

[divider] Luckiest Girl Alive by Jessica Knoll
op 12 mei 2015
Genres: Thriller
Pagina's: 416
Bol.com | Goodreads

As a teenager at the prestigious Bradley School, Ani FaNelli endured a shocking, public humiliation that left her desperate to reinvent herself. Now, with a glamorous job, expensive wardrobe, and handsome blue blood fiancé, she’s this close to living the perfect life she’s worked so hard to achieve.

But Ani has a secret.

There’s something else buried in her past that still haunts her, something private and painful that threatens to bubble to the surface and destroy everything.

With a singular voice and twists you won’t see coming, Luckiest Girl Alive explores the unbearable pressure that so many women feel to “have it all” and introduces a heroine whose sharp edges and cutthroat ambition have been protecting a scandalous truth, and a heart that's bigger than it first appears.

The question remains: will breaking her silence destroy all that she has worked for—or, will it at long last, set Ani free?

Een thriller is een welkome afwisseling tussendoor. Thrillers lezen heerlijk makkelijk weg en zorgen er vaak voor dat ik een boek niet meer weg wil leggen.

[divider] The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah

Pagina's: 464
Bol.com | Goodreads

In love we find out who we want to be. In war we find out who we are.

FRANCE, 1939

In the quiet village of Carriveau, Vianne Mauriac says goodbye to her husband, Antoine, as he heads for the Front. She doesn’t believe that the Nazis will invade France...but invade they do, in droves of marching soldiers, in caravans of trucks and tanks, in planes that fill the skies and drop bombs upon the innocent. When France is overrun, Vianne is forced to take an enemy into her house, and suddenly her every move is watched; her life and her child’s life is at constant risk. Without food or money or hope, as danger escalates around her, she must make one terrible choice after another.

Vianne’s sister, Isabelle, is a rebellious eighteen-year-old girl, searching for purpose with all the reckless passion of youth. While thousands of Parisians march into the unknown terrors of war, she meets the compelling and mysterious Gäetan, a partisan who believes the French can fight the Nazis from within France, and she falls in love as only the young can...completely. When he betrays her, Isabelle races headlong into danger and joins the Resistance, never looking back or giving a thought to the real--and deadly--consequences.

Van Kristin Hannah heb ik twee boeken in mijn kast liggen, maar nog niet gelezen… Helaas zit de Nightingale er niet bij. Verhalen over de oorlog vind ik altijd erg interessant, aangrijpend en soms mooi om te lezen/zien. Ook al vaak getipt op Bookstagram, dus deze mag niet ontbreken.

[divider] Into the Water by Paula Hawkins
Gepubliceerd door Doubleday op 2 mei 2017
Genres: Thriller
Pagina's: 356
Bol.com | Goodreads

‘Julia, it’s me. I need you to call me back. Please, Julia, it’s important…’

In the last days before her death, Nel Abbott called her sister.

Jules didn’t pick up the phone, ignoring her plea for help.

Now Nel is dead. They say she jumped. And Jules has been dragged back to the one place she hoped she had escaped for good, to care for the teenage girl her sister left behind.

But Jules is afraid. So afraid. Of her long-buried memories, of the old Mill House, of knowing that Nel would never have jumped.

And most of all she’s afraid of the water, and the place they call the Drowning Pool…

With the same propulsive writing and acute understanding of human instincts that captivated millions of readers around the world in her explosive debut thriller, The Girl on the Train, Paula Hawkins delivers an urgent, satisfying read that hinges on the stories we tell about our pasts and their power to destroy the lives we live now.

Zoals ik hierboven al aangaf, vond ik ‘ het Meisje in de trein’  van Paula Hawkins helemaal het einde. Deze film wil ik dolgraag zien. Ik kan dus niet anders dan ‘In het water’ aan mijn lijstje toe te voegen.

[divider] Six Years by Harlan Coben
op 27 februari 2014
Genres: Thriller
Pagina's: 358
Bol.com | Goodreads

Six years have passed since Jake Fisher watched Natalie, the love of his life, marry another man. Six years of hiding a broken heart by throwing himself into his career. Six years of keeping his promise to leave Natalie alone, and six years of tortured dreams of her life with her new husband, Todd.

But six years haven't come close to extinguishing his feelings, and when Jake comes across Todd's obituary, he can't keep himself away from the funeral. There he gets the glimpse of Todd's wife he's hoping for... but she is not Natalie - and Jake's world is turned completely inside out.

As Jake searches for the truth, his picture-perfect memories of Natalie begin to unravel. Mutual friends of the couple either can't be found or don't remember Jake. No one has seen Natalie in years. Jake's search for the woman who broke his heart - and who lied to him - soon puts his very life at risk as it dawns on him that the man he has become may be based on carefully constructed fiction.

En dan last, maar zeker niet the least… Een boekverfilming van Harlan Coben!! Is this for real??? Ik heb pas drie boeken van deze thriller auteur gelezen, maar ik ben fan!! Dit boek moet ik dus absoluut snel gaan lezen!
