17-year-old actress Chloe Grace Moretz has probably achieved more than other actresses at her age.

Armed with a tender innocence, classic features, and a ton of talent, it's no surprise how the actress is quickly becoming to be Hollywood's 'it girls.'

During a recent publicity appearance at the Ritz Carlton, the actress talked about her latest project, playing a cello player on the verge of death and coming back as a 'ghost.'

"It's just a basic story about love of life and the family, and I think no matter how old you are, you can have a love of life and family," said Moretz, referring to the best-selling book by Gayle Forman, which the movie is based on.

"It's not just about your first love," Moretz said during the publicity tour.

"That's a very small plot point in the scheme of this gigantic, all-encompassing kind of story," the actress added, as reported by News OK.

Moretz plays a shy teenage high school girl named Mia, who is skilled at playing the cello. Mia then falls in love with a rocker named Adam (played by Jamie Blackley), and her dreams of pursuing her studies at Juilliard are compromised as she has to make a decision between a career path or love.

Moretz recently appeared on the cover of Allure magazine's September 2014 issue, sharing her beauty secrets and advice.
