Im not sure if Unbreakable is the book your talking about but i havent seen anything. At first i thought i wouldnt like it then i got hooked and it left me wanting more!!! I did hear on the radio today that Witches of East End is going to be a tv series! lol, im so behind on movies and tv shows!

I'm sorry I was so ambiguous! I was referring to Witches of East End. Is it a series and how do you like it?

I thought that was the book you were referring to!!! I did hear today that it is in fact a new tv series. I started reading the first few pages but then stopped. I like what i have read so far.

I've seen the TV series advertised and it looks amazing!

I plan on watching it. I love reading the books and then watching the movie/ tv show so I can compare them.
