I saw some posts on here about good vs bad books adaptations, and it got me thinking about books that probably shouldn't or can't be adapted and why.
I know before the recent Dune movie releases people were saying that it would be too difficult to make a good adaption of the book due to the scale, need for special effects, etc. (Yet, the movies turned out really really good imo.) I just finished Coldwire and that's another one that I don't think can be adapted in a way that would work well- iykyk.
What are some books that you think shouldn't or can't be adapted into a tv show or movie?

loved the setting, loved the story and plot, had a little trouble connecting to the characters at times.

Kind, beefy, and bumbling, these male love interests are sweet and maybe a tad spicy.

• Can either be fantasy or scifi (open to any subgenre of both!)/standalone or series. • Certain tropes that I want to see:
1.) Unlikely poor chosen one x wealthy fiery bodyguard(/best friend) 2.) Different social classes/lifestyles 3.) Experiencing a shift in the relationship after the heroine's chosen one/"secret" reveal 4.) Complex parent and daughter dynamic (*Complex mother and daughter dynamic for the Rangi-esque character, in particular)
Thank you!

I'm sure this has been asked here before, but I haven't seen it recently, so I'm curious! What was your favorite childhood/middle grade book or book series? I'm talking books that had a bit more to them than picture books/early reader books, but weren't quite YA yet.
For me, it's A Series of Unfortunate Events which I remember reading during indoor recess in 4th or 5th grade. I also really liked Warrior Cats and I can distinctly remember where in my middle school library they were located.
