Underwood shared news of the adaptation on Instagram. The world will very soon be clamoring for more of her words.” It’s a truly incredible book, and Sarah is obviously prodigiously talented. “To be handed someone else’s story for safekeeping is such a beautiful responsibility, and I only hope I can do it justice. “I couldn’t be more thrilled and honored to have been entrusted with these characters,” Parker said. Ripley Parker, the writer and executive producer of Everything Now, which debuts on Netflix later this year, is penning the adaptation of Underwood’s novel. A critic for Kirkus called the book “inconsistent but intriguing.” Underwood’s young adult fantasy novel, published earlier this month by HarperTeen, follows Leto, an orphan girl who is sentenced to be hanged as a sacrifice to the sea god Poseidon but afterwards finds herself still alive, washed up on an island with a girl named Melantho. Sarah Underwood’s Lies We Sing to the Sea is headed to the big screen, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
