Books to Movies...What's Coming Soon?

We all know that Mockingjay Part 2 is being released this year, but what other great YA books are being made into movies?

  • Me and Earl and the Dying Girl (June, 2015)- Friends Greg and Earl are into making home-made movies (okay, maybe they're not the greatest movies, but it's the thought that counts, right?). When Greg's friend Rachel is diagnosed with cancer, the pair set out to make a movie just for her. This book will have you laughing the whole way through.

  • Paper Towns (July, 2015)- John Green is at it again. Follow Quentin in his search for the mysterious Margo Roth Spiegelman when she suddenly disappears...and leaves a trail of clues for Quentin.

  • The Scorch Trials (September, 2015)- Escaping the Maze was just the beginning. Thomas must survive the next Phase.

  • The 5th Wave (January, 2016)- There were four waves, wiping out many of the people on earth. Now, in the 5th wave, Cassie must fight for survival against aliens out to destroy humanity.

  • Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children (March, 2016)- Jacob, exploring an island off Wales, finds what once was Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children. The children here were indeed peculiar. The highlight of the book is the collection of amazing and haunting photographs scattered throughout the pages. This book is a must-read before you see the movie (since it comes out next March, you have plenty of time to read it and even the sequel, Hollow City)!
