Netflix aims to turn readers’ “To Be Read” lists into subscribers’ “To Be Watched” queues this summer with the launch of its new book-lovers-themed hub Tuesday.
Debuting today, the streamer’s “Watch Your Favorite Books” page is described as a “dedicated destination that brings together the best of Netflix’s book-inspired storytelling in one space,” including “Bridgerton,” “The Gray Man,” “The Queen’s Gambit,” and more of Netflix’s book-to-screen adaptations.
Netflix is breaking the hub into nine sections dedicated to different reader types, including:
● You Crave Amazing Characters● You’re into Immersive World-Building● You Love a Great Plot Twist● You Savor Swoonworthy Romances● You’re a Nonfiction Fanatic● You’re a History and Period Piece Buff● You Adore All-Ages Adventures● You Collect Manga and Comics● You’re Wild About Web Stories
For example, “All-Ages Adventures” will include the Neil Patrick Harris-led “A Series of Unfortunate Events” show, while the newly released “Remarkably Bright Creatures” film adaptation, starring Sally Field and Lewis Pullman, will be found under “Amazing Characters.”
