3 On A YA Theme: Stream These YA Adaptations
I rounded up some of the YA adaptations that were streaming on Netflix a few years ago, but since it’s been a while and many of us are still in the dreary dregs of winter, let’s revisit the topic and look at some of the titles you can spend some time with. All of these are based on YA books, and I’ve noted where they’re available to stream.
Descriptions come from the film version, with a note below indicating the title and author of the original book.
