'Beautiful Creatures,' 'Chaos Walking' and more YA novels on their way to the big screen

With the box office success of "Twilight" and the more recent "Hunger Games" phenomenon, it makes sense that more movie studios want to cash in on the booming genre young adult novels.

Because YA adaptations have become such hot Hollywood properties, it's hard to keep track of the latest books optioned for films. Zap2it made it a little easier for you by rounding up a list of the YA novels movie studios are currently in the process of adapting into films.

Some ultimately might not make it to the big screen, but they're worth a read anyway!
