Here is the book:
And a picture from a part of the movie:
I watched the movie and I actually really liked it, it was really sweet and cute, I wouldn't know if the book was better, though to be honest it most likely is because books are usually better than the movie (except maybe with New Moon... but that's most likely because all Bella did was moan, personal opinion no offense meant).
Anyway and I wanted to see which other books were possibly been adapted for the movies or for TV and I found a lot! I literally had no idea about some, so yeh here they are:
UGLIES
I love this book, my friend Alice told me to read it and I'm so glad I did, if you haven't read this then DO! Seriously cannot believe it's being turned into a movie! Woah! Here you can find what Scott Westerfield wrote on his blog. And the release date has not yet been released but it will be out sometime in 2012, so hopefully not too long.
THE FOREST OF HANDS AND TEETH
Haven't personally read this book but I have heard it's good, and definitely planning too, I think this is coming out sometime 2013? Correct me if I'm wrong, I'm not sure.
THE HOUSE OF NIGHT
Good book series, even though it sorta was slightly too long, I have a feeling this would probably work out better as a TV series but so far it is being optioned for film, and could possibly be released sometime 2013.
BEAUTIFUL CREATURES
Originally Jack O’Connell was supposed to play Ethan but because of scheduling conflict now Alden Ehrenreich will be taking over the role, look out fo this in 2013.
THE MORTAL INSTRUMENTS: CITY OF BONES
I think the release date for this is 23rd of August 2013 here in the UK, and click here for more info and the cast.
SHIVER
Literally so excited for this!!!! I love this book and woah who are they going to cast for Sam??! No release date as of yet..... ahhh cannot wait but somewhere I read sometime 2012?? Oh and this is what Maggie Stiefvater said on her blog.
FALLEN
Ok this shocked me the most, not cos it's not a good book, cos it is, but I don't know... it just did....
HEIST SOCIETY
Cannot wait for this! Sounds good and Drew Barrymore is producing and directing it, find out what Ally Carter said here.
VAMPIRE ACADEMY
Movie is coming in 2013, no joke this is killing me, I want to see this so bad...
MAXIMUM RIDE
I think this was supposed to come out in 2010, but now it's coming out hopefully in 2013.
Cannot wait for all of these and it seems like 2013 will particularly be a busy year! I look forward to it....
I totally agree about books usually being better than the movies that come from them. The only up side is that the movie often gets people interested enough to go out and read the book. Found your blog over on Book Blogs and hopped by to follow you. Love your blog and look forward to reading your reviews.
ReplyDeleteYeh that's true, the publicity the movie brings definitely helps. Thanks! :)
DeleteI can't wait for the Vampire Academy movie, either!
