The news just popped up on my Google page (7am this morning) and I let out a gasp at seeing MWTs picture, and then I read the headline and let out an even more horrified gasp that woke up my husband who thought something terrible was happening.
Good for Megan, this will give her books the attention they need (maybe they'll finally release a full hardcover set).....And at least this is live-action? I think I'd really loathe a Pixar version. Oh, and now we'll finally get some Thief merchandise, rather than scouring Etsy for a fourth pair of gold bee earrings.....
.....but gods, I hate when my favorite books get adapted. Harry Potter, Ella Enchanted, The Golden Compass......I only liked The Lord of the Rings because I saw the movies before reading the books.
Yes, very mixed feelings. Mostly dread. I think I JUST commented on a Bookriot article about this, saying I dreaded the day that Hollywood discovers MWT.

Please don't mess this up.
