Harry Potter. Percy Jackson and the Olympians. The Twilight Saga. The list of YA fantasy adaptations from books to movies and television shows has been ever-growing within the past few decades and doesn't show signs of stopping any time soon. This is great news for some of the excellent book series that have yet to be adapted for the screen, and it is always exciting when a new project gets announced. YA is a great resource for accessible escapism and often provides role models for teenagers as well as nostalgia for older readers who can remember what it was like, perhaps not to have powers, but the feelings the younger protagonists express and grapple with.
