'The Kissing Booth' author Beth Reekles decodes why book adaptations are instant hits
Beth Reekles was a teenager when she penned the teenybopper rom-com The Kissing Booth, which went on to become a hit film and also spawned a successful sequel for OTT. A third instalment is in post-production. This is not the first time a book for young adults or teenagers has been turned into a film. Several adaptations have become very popular, including the Harry Potter franchise, The Vampire Diaries and The Princess Diaries franchise among many others.
