Vampire Academy Fans out there, JOIN CAST DISCUSSION!

So since around yesterday there's been this very heated long discussion about who should be cast as the character in VA. It's not out fault really, the people at The Official Vampire Academy Movie Fan started it.

Here's the scoop:
"It’s been argued, debated, contested, opinioned, tabulated, reviewed and critiqued worldwide across the Internet, but never before have the true die-hard Official Vampire Academy Movie Facebook Fans spoken. 
Therefore the Movie’s Producers and staff have decided it’s time to let the fans officially declare whom their favorite actors and actresses for these coveted roles should be. 
On Monday, July 11th (USA), The first Official Vampire Academy Movie Facebook Page Casting Poll will begin.  Every Monday two additional character polls will be added to the page, so be sure to check back often to guarantee that your favorites are represented! 
 A list of the primary character roles have been compiled by our staff from the most often mentioned and talked about actors on the OVAM FAN PAGE over the past year. In addition, the Producers have added some selections of their own to help fans think outside the box. 
Some of the selections are very well known, while some are not.  Be sure to take time to do some research in casting your votes. Consider not only their looks and age, but also their acting ability and past professional work.  Remember that hair can be dyed, muscles built and accents created to fit any role -- but talent cannot be faked! 
Lastly, while the Producers take your opinions very seriously, let us remind you that these casting results are suggestions ONLY, and in no way will determine who the future Studio and filmmakers might inevitably casts.  We do hope to influence them however!"
-THE OFFICIAL VAMPIRE ACADEMY MOVIE FAN CASTING POLL

I have been on this discussion since yesterday non stop, liking comments, hating comments, and banning anyone who dares mention Megan Fox for the role of Rose (in my mind of course, can't do anything to those poor people with bad taste).

My Cast:

Dimitri Belikov- Ben Barnes
Rose Hatthaway- Sophia Bush
Christian- Tom Sturrige or Nicholas Hoult
Lissa- Kristen Prout (She has the face of an angel)
Adrian- Ian Somerhalder or Chace Crawford
Abe Mazur- Johnny Depp or Robert Downey Jr.
Mia- Annasophia Robb
Tasha Ozera- Zooey Deschanel
Eddie- Steven R. McQueen

I will be updating my Vampire Academy Cast soon with a second post that will include these new characters I've selected but for now... CLICK HERE and join the discussion!

Voice your opinion, read the comments, like comments, go go go!!

Meet Ash, Meghan and Puck.



Info on the video straight from the shark's mouth:

We're bringing you an exclusive peek at the Harlequin TEEN cover shoot for The Iron Knight, the eagerly anticipated next novel in the fan-favorite Iron Fae series by RITA Award winning author Julie Kagawa.

For more information on The Iron Knight and other books in this series check out: http://www.enterthefaeryworld.com


And so, there they are... To be completely honest, that is not how I picture Ash, my Ash, at all. He just isn't right. Where's the darkness that is a constant companion of the Winter Prince? You talk and talk about getting into character, but I never saw such a thing.

Now, Puck I liked more. He looks more Fae. Meghan I also liked! She is pretty cute, blonde, nice, with a terrific smile. Her pictures never fail to fascinate me so, hurrah!

But Ash? Nah ah. Get me another guy, and this time try to catch the icy spark of the character please T_T

How do YOU picture Ash? My Ash is:

Still anxiously waiting for The Iron Knight to come out! <3

Cover Revealed! A Temptation of Angels by Michelle Zink (New Series)!

Expected publication: 2012
by Dial Books for Young Readers
(Cover May Not be Final)

When her parents are murdered before her eyes, sixteen year-old Helen Cartwright finds herself launched into an underground London where a mysterious organization called the Dictata controls the balance of good and evil. Helen learns that she is one of three remaining angelic descendents charged with protecting the world’s past, present, and future. Unbeknownst to her, she has been trained her whole life to accept this responsibility. Now, as she finds herself torn between the angelic brothers protecting her and the devastatingly handsome childhood friend who wants to destroy her, she must prepare to be brave, to be hunted, and above all to be strong because temptation will be hard to resist, even for an angel.

Michelle Zink masterfully weaves history with paranormal romance to create a gripping tale of love and betrayal.

•-Excerpt-•

"Her eyes found the exist in under five seconds.
The wall behind her, unstable enough that a good push might get her through.
The now-glassless panes at the front of the house, which she could reach in four long strides.
And the doorway in which the tall, shadowy figure now stood.
Obviously, a last resort.
She didn't know if she could be seen, but before she could weigh the wisdom in making a run for it rather than staying and hoping she hadn't been spotted, the figure spoke.

"I imagine you've already found all the exists." The voice was familiar and male. "You've all been well trained."

Michelle thinks of her new novel, A Temptation of Angels, as “Sexy Victorian/Steampunk lite.” She says, “It has all the elements that are important to me as a writer, but it's sexy and edgy and action-packed, too.”


That cover is just gorgeous!! It has a Prophecy of Sisters feel to it, from the cover you can kind of connect the books to the author. Plus if the summary wasn't enough to convince you how about that excerpt? I mean, the female lead seems pretty kick ass, a la Rose Hatthaway style. She found all the exists in 5 seconds flat, it's calculating how to get out of harms way with precision and she is still capable of using her wit in dire situations. I love her a little bit already! To bad we have to wait till freaking 2012 to meet her!
