Universal is taking a bite out of Tracy Wolff‘s novel Crave, THR reports tonight. The studio has acquired the rights to adapt the young adult vampire novel into a feature film.
The novel isn’t even being released until tomorrow, April 7th.
Here’s the book’s official synopsis, via Amazon:
My whole world changed when I stepped inside the academy. Nothing is right about this place or the other students in it. Here I am, a mere mortal among gods…or monsters. I still can’t decide which of these warring factions I belong to, if I belong at all. I only know the one thing that unites them is their hatred of me.
Then there’s Jaxon Vega. A vampire with deadly secrets who hasn’t felt anything for a hundred years. But there’s something about him that calls to me, something broken in him that somehow fits with what’s broken in me.
Which could spell death for us all.
Because Jaxon walled himself off for a reason. And now someone wants to wake a sleeping monster, and I’m wondering if I was brought here intentionally―as the bait.
Entangled Publishing’s Liz Pelletier describes the plot a bit more succinctly, explaining that it’s about a human woman “who finds herself at the center of conflict between many warring factions when she falls for a vampire prince, all told with a decidedly feminist perspective.”
