That he is all of twenty years old further complicates things. But Hayes Campbell is clever, winning, confident, and posh, and the attraction is immediate.

The last thing Solène expects is to make a connection with one of the members of the world-famous August Moon. But since her divorce, she’s more eager than ever to be close to Isabelle. Solène Marchand, the thirty-nine-year-old owner of an art gallery in Los Angeles, is reluctant to take her daughter, Isabelle, to meet her favorite boy band. Just to give you an idea (no pun intended) of how much has changed, let’s start off with the synopsis for Robinne Lee’s book shall we? Now don’t get me wrong, there are exceptions but in this case the changes for The Idea of You just cannot be overlooked or excused. When you come out of the gate on a bad note, it does not put things in a positive light for the readers who love the story you are working with. That’s perfectly fine but, we have some other more concerning changes and believe me when I say, it’s a doozy.įirst let me just say, we all know that book to film adaptations are often a challenge, and they are not going to please every reader. The film will still be produced under Schulman’s Welle Entertainment as well as Gabrielle Unionscompany I’ll Have Another. Deadline announced that The Idea of You is being developed by Amazon Studios and Tony-nominated actress and filmmaker Jennifer Westfeldt is adapting the screenplay. Things went quiet for awhile but fast forward to 2021 and we finally have an update and umm… we have thoughts.

Naturally, I and other fans I know were extremely excited because we have said that it would make a great film. Like Deadline inform us, in In December of 2018, it was announced that the book had been acquired by Cathy Schulman, President and CEO of Welle Entertainment who would be working alongside Gabrielle Union via her Production Company I’ll Have Another. I mentioned this back in 2019 when I did my list of 10 POC Authors to Check Out Now. It is beautifully written, and it gave me the longest book hangover of my life. The Idea of You by Robinne Lee is one of my absolute favorite books.
