[aisle] HS Show Readalikes

[Lauren Ochs]

Hi all,

 An English teacher had a great idea to help some of her students who
struggle finding books submit shows they really like so we could pull books
based on them...BUT she accidentally forgot to loop me in and needs books
tomorrow, and I am scheduled to be out of the building for the day starting
at 11. Oops! Has this happened to you?

Luckily, only a few students took her up on the offer, and she is coming in
next hour to help me start pulling things. I would love any suggestions you
could add to my super fast brainstorming.

This is what she sent me from the student survey:

   - Outerbanks - romance/drama and adventure
   - Blue Bloods/Criminal Minds - cop/detective
   - Greys Anatomy - romance real life drama
   - All - American - race inequality, sports, drama
   - Mandalorian - sci fi / star wars
   - Vampire Academy - fantasy and romance
   - Marvel Movies - superheroes / action
   - Movies that are books: Me Before You and The Help
   - Bridgerton - english period drama and romance
   - Fast and Furious - cars/ action and drama

Here is a link to my Google Sheet brainstorm (you can add directly to it):

The only show I'm not familiar with is Outerbanks, but I'm also struggling
with what to offer freshmen who liked Bridgerton. I have all kinds of adult
romance novels to suggest, but haven't bought a ton of historical fiction
the last couple of years because it hasn't gone out.

Thanks for any help you can provide!
