Just finished Shadow and Bone!The world of the Grisha is both breathtaking and dangerous,it was a joy reading about it.
A little ticked off that Alina left my future boyfriend to die,but I may forgive her in time.
June 4th 2013 suddenly holds a whole new meaning for me! ; )

You mentioned a bit ago that you'd like to do a tour in Canada someday, so would it ever be possible you could make a pit stop in Wisconsin or Minnesota along the way?
I would love to! The thing about tours is that we (the authors) don’t have much say in where we go. But it can’t hurt to tell your local bookstore that you want a particular someone (hint hint) around :)
if you had to choose an actor to play the darkling, who do you think would best fit the part? regarding looks and acting?
This question is impossible for me. But I will say this… I think acting chops and charisma are more important than a checklist of physical descriptors. Yes, the Darkling is supposed to have black hair and gray eyes and, y’know, be with the hotness, but it’s a lot more important that you believe he can conquer worlds without breaking a sweat.

Florian Neuville as the Darkling. Text featured from EAP’s The Raven. Seemed very fitting. ;)
Holy. Effing. What the What. I LOVE THIS. How did you even do this? Also, never made the connection before, but that EAP quote reminds me of one of my favorite poems, “Once by the Pacific” (by the underrated Frost who I adore and who always gets slapped with that damn “Stopping by the Woods on a Snowy Evening” rap)

Not what I imagined, but Paul is an amazing actor. Have to admit, I’m intrigued!

I’ve tried. Really. I have. But somehow Channing Tatum has been permanently filed under “unintentionally hilarious.”
Have you seen Colton Haynes in Teen Wolf? He is way more Darkling than Mal, haha. I know his hair isn't Darkling-ish but oh man, can he capture that type of character. <3
I must admit, I’ve never seen Teen Wolf. And, um, I’ve never watched TVD either. I know, I’m losing all YA cred.

so Shadow and Bone is a really good book go read it if you haven’t already go go go!!
anyways I finished it earlier and had to sustain myself somehow so I drew the Darkling (precious brilliant asshole I just want to cuddle him oh lord)
and slapped the obligatory lyrics over his mug because Miss Bardugo mentioned a song that fit him and oh god I couldn’t stop listening it’s been on repeat all day
yeah, I’m reblogging this again. Cuz it’s awesome & deserves love. This Darkling looks like he has a band, ya’ll. A GOOD ONE.
