Wattpad connects millions of readers with aspiring and talented writers. If you are into movies, you sure heard of "After" and "Kissing Booth". The authors wrote and published the stories in Wattpad first before coming into print and movies. If you haven't heard, "PANIC" an Amazon original series is a book that was written on Wattpad. Wattpad houses its own studio and it seems several other productions are in their way.
Stories you should read on Wattpad:
Storm and Silence

If you are into historical fiction with a dash of rebellion, humour and romance, "Storm and Silence" is a perfect read. This book is more than perfect, tbh. No wattpader can talk about stories without mentioning this book. This book series has 6 books and each one will give you all kinds of feels without disappointment.
PS: If I give more than this, it'll spoil the entire story. Check for yourself folks ;)

Holly Molly! That's how I can describe this story. If you are a horror or paranormal fanatic, then this book does it for you. The Hulu original series is inspired by this book. Also, you can grab a copy of the revised version of this book from stores.
