Read More The Adaptation Watch – Part 2It’s time to see what adaptations are coming up in 2020 – your Novel2Screen abridged list. Yes, abridged because there are a LOT of books being adapted to films and limited release TV series this year, thanks to the content demand from numerous streaming services. I’ve got your list boiled down into three simple categories: […]
Read More The Adaptation Watch 2020 – Part 1Hello, amazing Novel2Screen readers! Rebecca and I have been on hiatus working on our novels. More Novel2Screen articles are on their way, but we promise the silence has all been for good as I have an amazing announcement to make…. Drum roll, please! Rebecca Phelps’ YA Sci-Fi novel Down World WON a Watty for Best Young […]
Read More Down World Wins Watty AwardAngels, I’ve taken forever to digest the ending of Shadowhunters. Not because it was a fantastic show that ended on its highest achievement. Not because it was a fantastic show that in the last season made its main female protagonist turn crazy wanting to burn down cities. Actually, it kind of did do that. But no, […]
Read More Shadowhunters – Must Come to an EndSpoiler Warning. Angels, I’ve been struggling this season. We’re only four episodes in, but I feel like we’ve seen so many repeated plot points and wayward trajectories that I’m holding on to this finale by a thread. A final season shouldn’t mean a failing season, but that’s what it feels like to me. Through Lost Souls, Original Sin, Beati […]
Read More Shadowhunters – Lost SeasonI’ve stayed away from discussing Marvel movies on Novel2Screen. Why? Because there are a million and one articles about Marvel movies. Two, I’m not a comic book junkie. If you want to read an in depth dissection of the movies compared to the comics, I’m not your girl. Someone out there has done it better. […]
Read More Captain Marvel – Just a GirlWith the series finale of Shadowhunters kicking off tonight, I thought it would be fun to look back at the past 3 seasons in memes. I’ve loved covering this show. I’m a fan of the novels who grew to be a fan of the show. Is Shadowhunters perfect? No. But maybe that’s what makes it endearing. […]
Read More Shadowhunters – A Look Back in MemesCould any other bear be so adorable? No. Absolutely not. He’s that ragged artist, brooding over his drink in the dark corner of the wine bar, who you’ve decided you can change. Others have tried and failed, but you’re different. Hopeless cases are your weakness. You like scrubbing the bad luck off a person and […]
Read More The Magicians – The Bad News BearLast week’s episode of The Magicians didn’t have me jumping out of my sofa (like the Les Miz episode) or screaming at the screen “That’s awesome writing!” like Be the Penny. Probably because it was the reveal episode. Spell gone. Thank Julia again, for better or worse. But it did have one element that I’ve grown […]
Read More The Magicians – Lost, Found, F…edIt feels like ages since we last saw our favorite ensemble on screen. Honestly, I had forgotten some key plot points because a year is just too long, SyFy. It probably doesn’t help that I’m in the middle of reading The Magician’s Land, which only now in book three reveals Alice the Niffin, where magic […]
