So I have been thinking...

A lot of popular YA (Young Adult) books are in production/optioned lately to be movies.

Not that I mind, I hope they are good and all [read as: YOU BETTER NOT MESS UP TFioS HOLLYWOOD!], but I worry that Hollywood just... isn't trying anymore.

Since the blow up of the Harry Potter movies, other books to movie in the YA and MG (Middle Grade) have been showing up more and more.

Sure, I loved Hunger Games, and absolutely loathed Twilight, but when will this trend end? Do we want it too? Is there a limit to what is acceptable and what is just.. excessive?

I haven't seen Catching Fire/Enders Game/Beautiful Creatures/Percy Jackson Lightining Thief-Sea of Monsters yet and I am not quite sure I am going to see Vampire Academy or Divergent when it first comes out. I am actually SCARED of what they might become. With so many hit or misses, what is a fan girl to do?

Should I cling to my books and hope for the best? Should I hide behind them and let them know it's okay. That I will love them regardless of what HollyWEIRD does to them?

Should I stand firm and watch the movies with a brave face?

This booknerdigans solider has no idea how to respond in the face of the tweakers and editors of Hollywood.

So, it's been a little while...

 

Since the last time I posted, I hve been though QUITE A BIT...

 

 

I broke my glasses (more), I have been sick and random babblings.

 

 

I have got quite a few books, including the last three Vampire Academy books and The Golden Lily...

 

 

I would have Bloodlines and the first three if it hadn't been for some woman snatching them off my safe table. >(

 

I found a very nice boxset of Lord of the Rings + The Hobbit!!! I will be posting pictures (maybe) soonish of my bookhauls!

 

I am still debating making a booktube account. D: It scares me but I have been easing myself into it with my Instagram account.

 

Currently I am reading Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell with a friend. OH MY GOD I AM LOVING IT.
