“When I was younger,” Henry says, “I had this very elaborate idea of taking somebody I loved here and standing inside the chapel, that he’d love it as much as I did, and we’d slow dance right in front of the Blessed Mother. Just a … daft pubescent fantasy.” Alex takes his hand, and Henry turns to face the chapel like a nervous postulant, his cheeks hollowed out in the low light, before pulling Alex into it. When they kiss, Alex can hear a half-remembered old proverb from catechism, mixed up between translations of the book: “Come, hijo mío, de la miel, porque es buena, and the honeycomb, sweet to thy taste.” He wonders what Santa Chiara would think of them, a lost David and Jonathan, turning slowly on the spot. He brings Henry’s hand to his mouth and kisses the little knob of his knuckle, the skin over the blue vein there, bloodlines, pulses, the old blood kept in perpetuity within these walls, and he thinks, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, amen.

What is your favorite book to movie adaptation? 🎥 Mine is not actually in this photo ... it's STARDUST by Neil Gaiman, and I actually like the movie version just a teensy bit more. 🙈 . . For YA books, I thought the movie LOVE, SIMON was most excellent & I'll forever hold a special place in my heart for THE PERKS OF BEING A WALLFLOWER, which was a very important book to me as a teenager. I was lucky enough to be invited out to the set when the movie was filming, and got to interview the cast and author/director Stephen Chbosky. . . #FearYourNovel - Books & Popcorn #booksofmar20 - page to screen . . #seaofbooks #yabooks #booktoscreen #yabookstagram #bookflatlay #booksandfood #mybookstagram #mybookfeatures #lovesimon #simonvsthehomosapiensagenda #theperksofbeingawallflower #thehungergames #harrypotterbooks #dumplinbook #thefaultinourstars #twilightsaga https://www.instagram.com/p/B9eqkFAASLI/?igshid=79bix74w83s

Henry’s grin takes over his entire face, not his photograph grin, but one that is crinkly and unguarded and infectious. He hooks his fingertips behind Alex’s elbow, and Alex follows his lead, bare feet nudging between Henry’s dress shoes. Henry’s breath ghosts over Alex’s lips, their noses brushing, and when he finally connects, he’s smiling into it. [...] Turns out being on the receiving end of Henry’s royal authority is an extreme fucking turn-on. Henry gets a grip on Alex’s hips and pulls him close, so Alex is properly straddling his lap, and he kisses hard now, more like he had in the Red Room, with teeth. It shouldn’t work so perfectly—it makes absolutely no sense—but it does. There’s something about the two of them, the way they ignite at different temperatures, Alex’s frenetic energy and Henry’s aching sureness. — RED, WHITE & ROYAL BLUE (chapter six, page 136-138)

Auntie Mame: An Irreverent Escapade is a 1955 novel by American author Patrick Dennis chronicling the madcap adventures of a boy, Patrick, growing up as the ward of his Aunt Mame Dennis, the sister of his dead father. The book is often described as having been inspired by Dennis' real-life eccentric aunt, Marion Tanner, whose life and outlook mirrored those of Mame, but Dennis denied the connection. The novel was a runaway bestseller, setting records on the New York Times bestseller list, with more than 2 million copies in print during its initial publication. It became the basis of a stage play, a film, a stage musical, and a film musical. In 1958, Dennis wrote a sequel titled Around the World with Auntie Mame. Auntie Mame is a 1958 American Technirama Technicolor comedy film based on the 1955 novel of the same name by Edward Everett Tanner III (under the pseudonym Patrick Dennis) and its 1956 theatrical adaptation by Jerome Lawrence and Robert Edwin Lee. This film version stars Rosalind Russell and was directed by Morton DaCosta. It is not to be confused with a musical version of the same story that appeared on Broadway in 1966 and was later made into a 1974 film, Mame, starring Lucille Ball as the title character.

@deadlinecom has announced the #rebeccayarros's #FourthWing has been optioned by #michaelbjordan 's #outlier_society and #amazonstudios. The article shared that the rights were sold in 2021 and seems to indicate only the rights to book 1, Fourth Wing, were part of this deal. The article states "Should the adaptation prove a success, we hear, there’s the potential for each book in Yarros’ series to be developed into its own separate TV project."

Since the book has only grown in popularity over the last year, I can only assume, if the series moves forward to begin with, that we'll get the full series adaptation.

Yarros had Liz Pelletier from Entangled Publishing are also set to be EPs on the project. It will be interesting to see how this author/production relationship will play out. Since the series isn't fully written, presumably at some point Yarros will have to step back to write, so the show does not outpace the books.

I will caution fans to remember, this is an adaptation. And this series will be no easy, or cheap feat to produce. Hopefully the production will keep the heart of the story, even when it can't give us 100% the book.

ℚ𝕆𝕋𝔻: Do you have a favorite animal? What is it? ⁣ ⁣ I have two favorites that I can’t choose between . . . sloths 🦥 and elephants 🐘! Owls🦉are also up there! ⁣ ⁣ Beasts of Prey features some of the coolest (and freakiest) magical beasts and animals! I read this awesome book last week and I absolutely loved it. It was a bit slow to start, but once it got going I could not put it down! The cliffhanger ending was totally epic and I can’t wait to find out what happens next. ⁣ ⁣ My favorite part was definitely the imagery and the depictions of all the beasts! I can’t wait to see how they look on screen in the Netflix adaptation! I do have one complaint though … why is it always spiders!! Warning to all arachnophobes, there is a horrible sequence involving spiders that I had to skim through. I really hope the show doesn’t include this scene! ⁣ ⁣ Huge thank you to the Penguin Teen Influencers program for sharing this e-arc with me! ⁣ ⁣ ✨Challenges✨⁣ #MyFictionalMusings - monsters ⁣ #MyFandomObsessionsOct21 - wicked #fantasyfriday⁣ ⁣ ✨Hashtags✨⁣ #PenguinTeen #BeastsOfPrey #PenguinTeenInfluencers #BookToScreen #FairyLoot #PrettyCovers #AdvancedReadersCopy #ARCReview #ReadersAssemble #MagicalBeasts #MagicalReads #Cliffhanger #DebutAuthors #AyanaGray #MonstersAndMagic https://www.instagram.com/p/CVDQFDXrhKI/?utm_medium=tumblr

And my next #booktoscreen read was #rebecca by #daphnedumaurier I think I had the wrong impression of what this book was about before reading it. I had it in my head that this was gonna be a ghost story in an old creepy mansion. I was ready for hauntings and scares. This was not what this story was, so for me it was a disappointment. I still watched the movie though. It was good. Kristin Scott Thomas played her role as the mean house manager well. But though I tried to let them go, my original expectations marred how I felt. I was underwhelmed and disappointed. This is why I try not to know too much before I read or watch a movie usually. Oh well, what do you do? Onto the next book I go #bookstagram #movies #bookgeek #readersofinstagram #bookworm #readmorebooks #booknerd #bookish #movienight #books #bibliophile #bookaddict #bookaholic #bibliotherapy #read #reading https://www.instagram.com/p/CQP0St3r974/?utm_medium=tumblr
