From Page to Screen #2

Fallen

Now, I don't know if you lot have heard but Fallen by Lauren Kate is currently in the process of being made into a movie! I only found out yesterday and I'm still a little giddy from the news. 

Filming has already begun and the blockbuster is due to hit our screens some point next year. The cast include, Addison Timlin as Luce - you might know her from Californication and Zero Hour. The one and only Jeremy Irvine as Daniel - think Now is Good and War Horse. As well as Harrison Gilbertson - AWESOME name by the way - as Cam! 

The film itself is directed by Scott Hicks, now if you didn't know he is responsible for The Lucky One featuring one Mr Zac Efron.

Story Line (via IMDb)

"There's something achingly familiar about Daniel Grigori. Mysterious and aloof, he captures Luce Price's attention from the moment she sees him on her first day at Sword & Cross boarding school. Except Daniel wants nothing to do with Luce - he goes out of his way to make that very clear. But she can't let it go. Drawn to him like a moth to a flame, Luce has to find out what Daniel is so desperate to keep secret. Ever if it kills her."

Cover Love

When it comes to book a series each book has to have it's own unique cover, as well as fitting in with the rest. Now sometimes they do this perfectly, take Morganville Vampire for example. But then sometimes they don't do such a great job, no names *cough* The forest of Hands and Teeth *cough.*

So I wanted to share with you my FAVOURITE cover series. Drum roll please...

Fallen, by Lauren Kate.

There's something about these cover's that makes me want to read the books. I'm a little on the fence about Passion, but the other's completely make up for it. Also there actually pretty decent books, which I will review at some point this year. A love triangle that last's a lifetime, or several lifetimes I guess.

My Edit

Give Me A Love Story...

YA is such a wide genre, to the point where it can really be just about anything that a teenager would find interesting. The majority of the books i'm going to look at and review to start with are going to be more Fantasy based as those tend to be the ones I like to read. However, one of the core parts of any YA novel is a love story.

So as in case I don't get around to reviewing these for a while here is a list of some Romance books I've read and would highly recommend:
