Bookish news: Paper Towns trailer!

It is finally here! I bet most of you have seen the trailer already, but just in case, watch it here: 


I haven't read the book yet, but that doesn't stop me for being so excited about the movie! Hopefully I'll have the chance to read it before the movie comes out though ;)

The combination of Cara Delevingne and Nat Wolff is perfectttttt!!! I've always loved Cara (seriously, she makes me question my sexuality) and Nat is amazing. I loved him in TFIOS so I cannot wait to see more of him.

What are your thoughts? Have you read the book? Are you excited?? ;)

Gone Girl: the movie



Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn, the book:

Who are you?
What have we done to each other?
These are the questions Nick Dunne finds himself asking on the morning of his fifth wedding anniversary, when his wife Amy suddenly disappears. The police suspect Nick. Amy's friends reveal that she was afraid of him, that she kept secrets from him. He swears it isn't true. A police examination of his computer shows strange searches. He says they weren't made by him. And then there are the persistent calls on his mobile phone.
So what did happen to Nick's beautiful wife?

View it on Goodreads here.

Gone Girl, the movie

To be honest, I don't think I will ever read the book, because I just watched the movie.
I read some reviews (about the book) and I think they are quite similar, so please forgive my "rant" about the movie. I just NEED to talk about it, because this was COMPLETELY FUCKED UP!

Ohmygod. Just ohmygod! I've never been into the thriller genre, but this plot intrigued me, but I was never in the mood to read the book so I watched the movie and I- ... I just don't know what to think!! I don't even know if I liked it! This was just SO messed up. The plot is MIND-BLOWING!!

The ending was dumb though. An open ending for this kind of book is just... not acceptable. I never read any psychological thriller, but ending it like this? What. The. Hell?!

Ugh. Okay. I might the read to book. But not soon anyway. Maybe when I forget half of the movie and can't remember how it ends... THEN I'll read it :D

Okay I think I said enough... *sighs* I feel slightly better now :D

Geez, I can't believe I just wrote a "review" about the movie adaptation of a book (without reading the book!à. I feel like I should use this gif on myself:

Bookish News: Ugly Love movie adaptation? HELL YES!

If you follow Colleen Hoover on Instagram/Facebook, you probably already know this, but there will be a 'Ugly Love' movie! I haven't read the book yet, but I'm super excited anyway :D I think I'll read the book next month ;)

And I'm not just excited about the fact that a book is being turned into a movie, but also because of WHO is going to be in this movie: Nick Bateman.

Oh man, is he even real? HE IS GORGEOUS!! I think I scrolled though his IG account for half an hour... just looking at his perf pictures... I think I'm in love.


Colleen confirmed this but doesn't know any details yet, so make sure you follow them on IG and facebook to be updated! Here are some links: 

This movie is scheduled for 2016, so why not enjoy the pictures of this beautiful man in the mean time? haha :D

The Maze Runner: The Movie

I finally saw the movie! Twice! :D

I saw it Saturday for the first time and I was OVER-EXCITED! My heart was pounding so fast during 90% of the movie. It was so good! To be honest, I don't remember a lot of details from the book because it's been a long time since I read the book, but I still think the movie follows the book pretty good. Yes, there were some differences, but isn't there always in an adaptation? So I didn't mind ;)

The cast is beyond perfection! Dylan O'Brien did an AMAZING job!! I know him from Teen Wolf and I consider myself as a mayor fan, so I was so glad he had his first big movie. And he deserves all the awards because he was so good! I admired him through the whole movie (he's even hotter on a big screen haha).

Thomas Brodie-Sangster (Newt), Ki Hong Lee (Minho) and Blake Cooper (Chuck) also did an amazing job! They are the perfect actors for these characters. Especially Minho! 

I'm just not very happy with Kaya Scodelario as Teresa and I can't even explain why exactly. I guess I imagined her differently... Anyway, that just a minor complaining :D

The way they did the whole maze was just... WOW! It was totally how I imagined it! The grievers were also amazing! Disgusting but amazing :D I imagined them completely different, but the movie-version is way better than the one in my head ;) 

Anyway, I just had to see the movie for a second time, so I went back the day after and I loved the movie even more! I cried a little (again) during the ending, because of.... you-know-who :( 

The movie reminded me how much I liked the first book. I'm thinking about rereading the whole trilogy again. If you haven't read any of these books yet, please consider reading them, because they are so good! I loved the movie a lot, but the book is so much better. When I reread it, I'll definitely write a decent review for you guys ;)

Now enjoy these three hotties (you're welcome :D):

Minho, Thomas and Newt
