Welcome back to the YA Movie News Roundup! Memorial Day makes for a slow news week, but we've got a few little juicy tidbits for you here!
MTV is adapting Kirsten Smith's Trinkets as a small-screen series! Smith will executive produce and create the series alongside Andrea Seigel, who's head writer.
Trinkets, first published in 2013, revolves around three teenage girls who meet in Shoplifter’s Anonymous. Their secret friendship transforms their social, home and romantic lives.
[...] “We want to make an authentic, smart spin on the Breakfast Club — but with girls and shoplifting,” Smith said. “Andrea’s the perfect writer to bring these characters to life for television.”
