Unwind Movie?

       Unwind by Neal Shusterman is one of my favorite books. I read it a while ago, but I will try to give  brief description of it.
       Basically, parents can sign a paper sending their kids to be 'unwound.' meaning they get dismembered  and their body parts go to people who are in need of them. You are alive throughout the entire procedure so technically you never really die.
       When Connor, Levi, and Risa find out that they are going to be unwound they run away, if they can make far enough away that nobody knows them, and when the reach the age of 18, they are entirely free. But the question is, will they be able to escape being unwound?
       Alright sorry if  that description didn't make sense, I'm not the greatest at explaining things. Anyway, the point is, they are making Unwind into a movie! Do you know how long I have been waiting for this to happen? Unfortunately, this movie should be coming out in 2015 which means, sadly, I have no casting information for the fellow fans of Unwind.
       I am curious about how they are going to go about doing this. This goes through multiple POV's a lot.  Not to mention the creepy concept. I just hope that they end up doing it justice.

  1. I don't know how I feel about this movie. I'm feeling very leery of these book to movie adaptations. They're pushing them out rather rapidly. That worries me.
