Irish writer, Sally Rooney's 'Normal People' shook up the book world when it came out, with over a million copies sold worldwide. Rooney became one of the youngest authors (at 27 years old) to be longlisted for both the Man Booker Prize and the Women's Prize for Fiction, as well as win the 2018 Costa Best Novel award.

But it wasn't just the awards. Millennials finally felt seen when Rooney's book made the rounds around the awards circuit. The story of young lovers Marianne (Daisy Edgar-Jones ) and Connell(Paul Mescal), from high school through to college and then afterward was called both uncomfortable and provocative, yet readers around the world suddenly wanted to be Rooney's best friend.

In possibly what is the quickest book-to-tv adaptation, Hulu and BBC announced an adaptation of the novel in May 2019. And now, we have a trailer and fans are absolutely thrilled. Set in Ireland, 'Normal People' follows the friendship and relationship between Marianne and Connell. It is set in the 2000s downturn period -- the period when graduating millenials realized that the 2008 economic crisis meant really bad things for them.

Connell is a popular, handsome, and highly intelligent high schooler who begins a relationship with unpopular, intimidating, and intelligent Marianne, whose parents employ his mother as a cleaner. Connell and Marianne begin a secret relationship in school, which then reconciles when the two attend Trinity College in Dublin.

On January 17, Hulu released the trailer for its adaptation, which is set to storm TV screens in Spring 2020. Featuring shots of Marianne and Connell across scenic Ireland and within the partying scene, the trailer features snippets of conversation between the two characters. 

Fans of the book are both excited and wary for the series to hit their screens this spring. One fan tweeted, "Equal parts excited for this and scared it's going to ruin one of my favorite books for me." Another fan wrote, "Fully prepared to have my feelings crushed again by this, I just hope it does the book justice."
