Twenty top book-to-film adaptations of 2015

The editors at B & N Reads tagged twenty top book-to-film adaptations of 2015, including:
The Price of Salt, by Patricia Highsmith

Nobody does sexual obsession like Patricia Highsmith. In the forthcoming adaptation of her cult classic novel The Price of Salt (to be released with its alternate title, Carol), Rooney Mara’s dissatisfied shopgirl has a chance meeting with Cate Blanchett’s elegant housewife, and love, dreams of escape, and blackmail follow. We can’t wait to see what Todd Haynes, known for his incredible direction of women, does with this one.

The Price of Salt made Carmela Ciuraru's top ten list of great books written by pseudonymous authors.
