Beth is an east coast Canadian, born and raised in Halifax, Nova Scotia. She is (unsurprisingly) obsessed with books and is a public library assistant and book blogger. When she’s not convincing all her friends to be friends with each other, she’s trying to convince them to read YA. She likes poetry and coffee and the ocean, but her true love is her cat Edith.

I don’t know about you, but my most anticipated adaptation of 2018 is Love, Simon, a film based on the adorable book, Simon Vs. The Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertalli. And today, we finally get a look at the Love, Simon trailer!

The first full length trailer for Love, Simon premiered today exclusively on MTV’s TRL. Now, we get a real taste of Nick Robinson, Katherine Langford, Keiynan Lonsdale, Alexandra Shipp, and many more, bringing our favourite characters to life!

Simon Vs. is the story of teenager Simon Spier. Simon’s trying to get through high school unscathed, but we all know that’s nearly impossible. He has been trading emails with an anonymous pen pal and they might be starting to fall for each other. The trick is, they don’t know each other’s identity and… they’re both guys and neither of them is out yet. It’s an adorable and hilarious story of high school hi-jinks, coming out, and first loves.

Our beloved Simon is being brought to the big screen by Temple Hill Entertainment, New Leaf Literary & Media, Inc., and Fox 2000. It’s directed by Greg Berlanti and will release in the USA on March 16th, 2018! And I cannot waitBecause everyone deserves a great love story.
