If You Like ‘The Running Man’ Add These Books To Your TBR
2025 has been Stephen King’s year!
Adaptations of If It Bleeds, The Long Walk, IT, and The Running Man have all been well-received by audiences.
The Running Man was adapted in 1987 with Arnold Schwarzenegger playing the title role of Ben Richards. Stephen King wrote this novel and The Long Walk under the pseudonym Richard Bachman.
After reading The Running Man, it goes without saying that Edgar Wright’s visionary filmmaking is the best fit to capture the fast-paced energy of the novel.
Here are the five books we recommend!

If You Like ‘Frankenstein’ Add These Books To Your TBR
The month of October may be over. But some people are drawn to the misunderstood characters and the obscure.
The novel that has been adapted many times over is Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. Each adaptation offers a new perspective on the novel, but Guillermo del Toro has created the perfect adaptation. Not only does he have a firm grasp of what Victor Frankenstein’s intention was with the undead, but he also makes him the villain of the story.
Del Toro’s love for Shelley’s novel and the depiction of The Creature is profound. It is one of the most beautiful films of the year and the definitive adaptation of Shelley’s novel.
Here are the five books we recommend!
