Favorite Books that were turned into films?

What is your favorite book that was eventually transferred into a movie? For me, I enjoyed The Martian and The Maze Runner.

They were both pretty good novels, recommend them both strongly.
The films weren't too bad either, stayed somewhat faithful.

I can't wait to see the new Scorch Trials movie, I should finish the book first though.

Edit: Wrong thread, sorry.

The Shining

I would be happy if some of my Fav Books were turned into GOOD Films. Yes I am looking at you Hitchhikers!
