There are several movies and TV shows coming out this spring based on books. Several book adaptations have been released as TV series or films earlier this year as well. It can be really enjoyable to read the book and watch the show or movie. So far, I've watched The Plot Against America, Killing Eve, and Normal People. I'm currently reading Just Mercy and then plan to watch the film. Little Fires Everywhere is in my book stack to read, and I want to watch the show as well.
