Haha how will the city feels when it knows you feel that about her?? lol
Aww well I heard that she isn't the nicest person on the planet, but I don't think that's a big problem. I mean there are lots of people out there who aren't really nice and not every author is going to be a good role modal. But I mainly watching it for the actors and directors though. haha I just really wanna see how they did some of the things and I feel like the cast is gonna be epic so... and after all the story itself is pretty good too.
haha. Ugly is a big word..... lol anyways im not watching it for his face or Lily's I meant their acting. and i'm a fan of Harald Zwart (the director). and he worked hard to create the world to the best of his abilities. I don't know. Its kinda bit sad that all you mentioned is the romantic side of the story. I mean there's the brotherhood between Jace and Alec. There's what Clary did for her mother. Then there's even Simon's sister. And the "respect" Sebastian has for his "dad". and also Bane's honesty. oh and there are more lessons to the story than "a girl falls for a guy who treats her badly" but that's just what I think xD
hahahahahaha....sorry but I found this funny. I never thought about him that before. but he also stopped him from just telling his parents without realizing?? BTW did you read TID?? b/c its better than TMI, even though I didn't like Tessa the MC at all.

Doesn't it?? I wish they give us a new trailer sometime soon! @ Amelia, oh haha I see. Try to not sit more then 45 min straight. I mean just move and go get water or something xP that should be okay!
I started a new work out just this week and God! The 1st I felt like hell! I couldn't even sit right or bend to get something. But today it was much smoother. I guess my body got used to it.(Just noticed if someone reads this with the wrong idea in mind......that wouldn't be what I meant!)
Haha- I know what you mean. My first week of intense tennis this summer I DIED!!!

Haha thanks I guess!!!! :P And yeah, soon there's gonna be SO much snow! But there's still pretty autumn in between!
Has anyone seen the movie In Time? My husband was watching it earlier and asking me if it was based on a book. I can't find anything that says it is, but the plot line sounds so familiar. Maybe I've seen the movie and just don't remember it.
The people who made the movie were sued by a writer for similarities to his story called "Repent, Harlequin! Said the Tick Tock Man." From the '60s. He dropped the lawsuit later though.

That's totally fine Lilac :) You're not a terrible mod at all!!!!!!!!! Don't say that! You have no need to apologize! :)
I have been feeling very bad lately :( so I decided that in November I want to read a lot of christmas (with happiness) books, can you recommend anyone?
Mod
Only the obvious: A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens. It's a really sweet book :)
Hi everyone! So I've been wondering how you guys would feel about maybe having a christmassy group read this month.. Is that something you'd like? If you have any other festive suggestions, do share them! :)
Well then, I think it's safe to say Riya is very much on board! Haha
I wanna do this if u guys decide on it! And Riya can u send me the link for the Study in pink buddy read?? Lol sorry but I just can't find it!!!
Hahaha that's what I meant! Study in pink is the "renewed" name for it xP

Oh okay cool! I was sure u knew what I meant but had to make sure xP
Anyone else psyched for Sochi?! GO CANADA!!!
totally psyched for Sochi. Mostly for the ski-jumping event, there aren't that many other medal chances for my country. Though I'll definitely watch figure skating, cause it's fabulous :D

The books are really well crafted. Brilliant characterization and unpredictable plots. The only problem is they have no ending ...

I really don't know much, like I said just saw the movie, and I don't think I should say anything till I read the book because usually the books are a bit better. The one thing that I really like about the story though, is Rick's voice. I mean its kinda different than other books I've read and his stories kinda have a feel of their own. I really don't know much about Greek mythology (even though I like it and trying to learn as much as possible).
Have you seen the movie/s?
