I think of the band Muse, a song like "Sing for Absolution"
And also, who would you like to play Bella and Edward?
I was thinking Gaspard Ulliel and Danielle Panabaker.
I don't think Gaspard is too old to pass for seventeen, and I still am a bit unsure about who should play Bella, it's like no one's good enough, but I think Danielle would be alright.
But I don't like Emily Browning, sorry. (she is pretty, though) I think she would just be wrong to play Bella.

I understand that piracy is illegal but if I was J K Rowling or her publishing company I don't think I would be that bothered seeing as they are both making a packet off the Harry Potter series. Do you think they have a right to be annoyed or should just leave the 16 year old kid be and be happy with the amount they have made?

I've already read Brave New World (Huxley), 1984 (Orwell), and We (Zamyatin) and I'm craving more, with a passion.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Is the Harry Potter series ever going to be surpassed. After finishing the 7th book I honestly can't imagine an entire planet every opening themselves up to another character like they did Harry Potter.

I'm Team Edward all the way, for sure. Jacob is too annoying and possesive. Atleast all Edward wanted was for Bella to be happy. Even if she didn't end up being with him, Edward loved her so much that all he would want for her was to have her happy.
I think Edward is the best choice and they are EXTREMLEY cute when they're together. With Jacob it's too boring.

Plus, who would choose Edward :P He's, Edward.

read a book really fast the first time, like in a day, and then, you went back and read it slower, and realized that you read it too fast and missed some parts?
That happened to me. Lol =)
I read Harry Potter 7 in a day, and I think I read it too fast and I read some of it yesterday and a little today, and I just realized I missed a lot of the parts and I am just reading it, thinking "When did this happen?" lol =D
Has this ever happened to you?

I read the book because it is a classic, and I wanted to know what all the fuss was about. I don't understand it. I just thought it was a story of the boy that ended really weird. Can someone help me out?

The most shocking moment for me was when Dumbledore died. I thought he would make it until the end. Sirius' death was also shocking.

DISCLAIMER: For those who have not read the final Harry Potter book, do not answer this question. Somebody might give away the ending.

Something along the lines of Donnie Darko. A male lead and that sort of vibe would be ideal, although any recommendations are welcome.

When you read a fantasy novel, do you want the author to go on for several pages describing how beautiful the scenery is, so that you get a clear picture of how it looks? Or do you think that this makes the story drag on unnecessarily?

Or do you prefer descriptions that are short and concise, so that you are allowed to use your imagination to visualize how to rest of the scenery looks. And do you think that short descriptions help your story to flow and keep a good pace?
