So it looks like pretty much every YA novel you love will one day end up on the big screen, and Rainbow Rowell’s Eleanor and Park is no exception to the rule. In this case, I’m totally okay with that and will be crazy excited to see it made! I’m excited for a couple of reasons:

1. Rainbow Rowell herself is actually writing the movie, so we know that it probably won’t get some slapped-on happy Hollywood ending.

2. Eleanor and Park aren’t your typical teen movie roles and (hopefully) will be played by actors that most people can actually relate to.

I came across this article on www.bookriot.com, that does an awesome job of explaining why it’s so important that this movie is being made.  Check it out and let us know what you think.
