Looking for a list of Books that became TV Shows! No Wikipedia!?

I am looking for a list of books that also lists the TV shows they became.
[I have already checked Wikipedia.]

Example: Darkly Dreaming Dexter by Jeff Lindsay - Dexter
I'm looking for a list that gives a side by side listing of books and TV shows. I could compile the list myself from all the ones I know but I'm looking for a complete list.

Is Pride & Prejudice - Jane Austen..a good book?

I'm planning to read this book for a book report. I've seen the movie, fell in love. But is the book better?

Also, if anyone knows..
Number of pages in this book?



Answer
Pride and Prejudice is one of my all-time favorite books. It is witty, romantic, a great story, and lots of fun to read. The book is much better than the most recent film, the one with Keira Knightley. I really liked the BBC production with Colin Firth, but the book is still better. It varies in length depending on the copy, but it seems to average around 350-400 pages. I hope you enjoy it!
