There’s nothing better than a book-to-screen adaptation. Except maybe dissecting the adaptation with your friends and debating whether or not it does the book justice! Enter The Adaptables, the podcast that dives into your favorite book-to-screen adaptations. Hosted by two binge-watching and book-loving besties, Abbe Wright (Senior Editor of Read it Forward) and Emma Shafer (Product Manager at Penguin Random House), this season is all about the Hulu adaptation of Little Fires Everywhere. Join Emma and Abbe as they chat with authors, insiders, and Celeste Ng, herself, about the makings of a great adaptable, why watching and reading are important self-care rituals, and the many other books and shows they’re binging and loving. Because at The Adaptables, we love to watch what we read. Warning: there will be little spoilers everywhere.
