Forget about breezy beach reads — several of those mystery novels and noir thrillers you’ll bring to the seashore this summer have been turned into TV shows.

One of this summer’s hot small-screen trends is crime shows based on novels. Season 2 of last summer’s hit “Big Little Lies” doesn’t yet have an airdate (it’s expected next year), but plenty of shows are vying to take its place this season. From period pieces to spy thrillers, here’s what to look out for.

“Picnic At Hanging Rock” (Amazon)

The six-episode miniseries, which stars Natalie Dormer (“Game of Thrones”) and is currently streaming, is based on a book by Joan Lindsay originally published in 1967. (But it’s most famous for a 1975 film adaptation from Peter Weir). Set in 1900 Australia, the story follows a group of girls who mysteriously disappear from a boarding school. The TV adaptation is ominous and atmospheric, with shadows lurking even on the sunniest days. Think “Lost” meets “Howards End.”

“Condor” (Audience Network)

This thriller is currently airing (Wednesdays at 10) and based on the 1974 novel “Six Days of the Condor” by James Grady. The show follows a young CIA analyst (Max Irons), an idealistic millennial who must compromise his principles when he discovers a dangerous plot.

“Sharp Objects” (HBO)

Premiering July 8 and starring Oscar-nominated Amy Adams, “Sharp Objects” is based on a 2006 book by Gillian Flynn, who also wrote the popular “Gone Girl.” This story is more about an individual than a marriage, as Adams’ character Camille returns to her dead-end hometown for a work assignment. But just like “Gone Girl,” expect a damaged and abrasive female lead with dark secrets.

“Kiss Me First” (Netflix)

Based on a 2013 book by Lottie Moggach, this British series comes from Bryan Elsley, the co-creator of popular UK series “Skins.” The show (premiering June 29) follows a lonely teenage girl (Tallulah Haddon) who makes a friend on an online gaming site. After her new friend (Simona Brown) vanishes, she assumes her identity and gets drawn into the mystery.

“Castle Rock” (Hulu)

Premiering July 25, this series isn’t based on one book but rather on the collective stories of Stephen King. Set in the fictional town of Castle Rock (located in Maine, where else for a King story?), it boasts an all-star cast including Sissy Spacek, Andre Holland (“Moonlight,” “The Knick”) and Bill Skarsgard (who starred in another King adaptation, the big-screen hit “It.”)

“Jack Ryan” (Amazon)

On Aug. 31, John Krasinski will continue his trend of playing action heroes in order to pave over the memory of his most iconic role, mild-mannered Jim from “The Office.” “Jack Ryan,” based on Tom Clancy’s bestselling series of the same name, stars Krasinski in the titular role of a CIA analyst who must leave his desk job to investigate and stop a terrorist.
