They're too modern. Maybe I just had a very sheltered, conservative childhood, but some of the stuff people in the newer YA novels do boggle my mind. When I was in high school sex wasn't something we talked about all of the time (and it's not something my friends and I talk about all of the time now either) but that seems to be the focus of so many books.
It might be worth it! Given there's barely anything left that resembles the novel, save some of the character names, others films seem to follow their novels almost word for word.
