I'm in the middle of Allegiant, and I wonder if these might not make better movies than books.
Which isn't a definitive answer, but I do think it's a generally interesting story, and the elder portion of the cast should be good.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Four looks hunky. (That's all I got.)
t edit Okay, I just looked at the IMDB page -- Kate Winslet is Jeanine Matthews??? I'm more intrigued now.
Well, I quite liked the first book. The second NSM, and the third I haven't read, given the reviews I've seen. But I'd enjoy seeing the movie, of the first one. Plus it sounds like they got a good cast.
Yeah, not wanting to be Mockingjay'ed, I've already decided not to read any of them.

Hah. I feel like ALL the YAs have this "Must be a trilogy!!" thing going on, and it irks. There are some that would be so much better as stand-alones (...though I get that marketing-wise that's not as worth it), or at most with a sequel.
I would totally see the movie. I suspect it will translate very well to film.
I just read "where'd you go Bernadette", which I can't decide if I liked. Maybe it was just overhyped. It had some cute very seattle things. But the plot was...odd? Confusing? Something.
Wow, you guys weren't kidding about Allegiant. That was terrible.
I think I liked the mixture of styles and stuff more than the story, Meara. It was cute, but I do sort of not like that, once you decide you've written a comic novel, you can throw the kitchen sink in too, because it's wacky and it doesn't have to make sense. The best stand-up does.
