The good news: Hollywood producers have decided YA books make great movies. The bad news: Some YA movies don’t do justice to great YA books. But extra good news is that Hollywood is going to keep on trying. That means you’ll be seeing more and more of your favorite blockbuster books remade for the big screen.

Some of what’s coming up – with links to the authors (in order of release dates)

Ender’s Game by Orson Scott Card  Ender Wiggin and the Buggers on a big screen! Asa Butterfield (Ender) also played Hugo in the movie based on Brian Selznick’s The Invention of Hugo Cabret. Release date is November 1, 2013. (Note: Has anybody else seen the poster with the added tagline – This Is Not A Game? What a spoiler shame!)

The Book Thief by Markus Zusak   Death narrates this World War II story about a girl’s love affair with books. Release date November 15, 2013. Check here for cool production images from the film.
