The 10 Most Anticipated Book Adaptations Of Fall 2025
2025 has been filled with incredible new book releases. For some reason, most of the book adaptations are released in the last quarter of the year. There are film adaptations that everyone is excited about. Some may not be aware that these books are being adapted, so MBC is here to help you all.
The books listed below are also among my most anticipated for the second half of the year. Hopefully, we can read them before they head to the big screen. From romance to horror to sci-fi, here are the 10 most anticipated book adaptations for the rest of 2025.

If You Like Matchmaking Add These To Your TBR
There are plenty of romantic tropes we’ve grown to love, but not many people explore the world of matchmaking. Modern dating has changed drastically, and it’s up to authors to create romantic stories for us to fantasize about.
In Celine Song’s sophomore feature, Materialists, she returns to the origin of what it means to be a partner. Simplicity was the focus for Song on telling this modern romantic drama.

‘Divine Rivals’ Adaptation Moving Forward At Paramount
Amid the ACOTAR series adaptation falling through and Rebecca Yarros’ Empyrean series still in pre-production, Paramount has acquired the rights to the Letters of Enchantment Romantasy series Divine Rivals by Rebecca Ross.

Which ‘Onyx Storm’ Fan Art is Your Favourite?
Hello, Onyx Storm fans!
We LOVE diving into the Empyrean series as our BONUS BOOK of the month. This month we chose Onyx Storm after reading Fourth Wing and Iron Flame by Rebecca Yarros for book club last year.
Whether you’re a fan of Violet Sorrengail, Xaden Riorson or Violet’s besties Rhiannon, Sawyer and Ridoc, here’s some unique fan art for everyone!

Which Second In Command fanart from ‘ACOTAR’ Is Your Favourite?
Rhysand’s seconds-in-command are two beauties who bite. Amren and Morrigan “Mor” keep everyone in line in the Night Court.
Mor and Amren have gone through so much and have persevered in the darkest times. They are the glue holding everyone together with Rhysand.

Which Archeron Sister Fanart From ‘ACOTAR’ Is Your Favourite?
The Archeron sisters have been interesting to follow the more Feyre interacts with them as a Fae. Nesta and Elain are vastly different, but they agree that remaining together is the best decision.
The sisters are all described beautifully in the book and the artistry in the fanart is nothing short of gorgeous.

Which BatBoys Fanart From ‘ACOTAR’ Is Your Favourite?
We LOVED A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Maas, one of Maude Garrett’s favourite books.
The three characters who stood out in this sequel are the “BatBoys.” They are pure Night Court Royalty. If you’ve been a fan of Rhysand, Cassian and Azriel, the three combined are lethal.

Which Rhysand Fanart Is Your Favourite?
We LOVED A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Maas, one of Maude Garrett’s favourite books.
There is one character who stands above the rest and that is, of course, Rhysand. We have searched to collect fanart for the High Lord of the Night Court.

The debut novel is a contemporary romance, which is a soft spot for many in our community.

Ranking Emily Henry’s Romance Novels
Maude Garrett has read every single Emily Henry novel and she has her ranking. Thankfully, because of Maude, I started reading her novels too. The list below is my ranking of the Henry romance novels because I devoured all of them.
Henry knows how to connect readers to her characters and use the best tropes to make you fall in love with them. Whether you end up loving or disliking one of her novels, it’s all about the journey to read them.
