This ever-growing struggle against the rising tide of foaming-at-the-mouth Twilight fans has been painfully arduous and deeply harmful to the face of teen literature across the world. But, I must say that the most recent instillation of this series, and the foaming-at-the-mouth fans' reactions to said monstrosity, have somewhat cushioned that terrible wave of nausea I receive every time I walk into a Barnes and Nobel and see Stephanie Meyer plastered all over in those gaudy displays.
This review I just read in Entertainment Weekly also did its share of raising my spirits as it more or less restored some of my dangerously waning trust in the sanity of this world's book critics:
(Holy shit. ACTUAL line from the book: “He had the most beautiful soul, more beautiful than his brilliant mind or his incomparable face or his glorious body.” Holy EFFING shit. That…well that just fucked me up a little inside, Stephanie. Thank you ever so much. )
Btw, I'm watching Stage Beauty now (for mayhaps the millionth time), and...am seriously contemplating just hitting the play button again when it ends.
IT'S JUST THAT GOOD OKAY
(lol @ "Forgive me. I have spoken loudly." and "...All because I called you a whore, and grabbed your cock!"
Claire Danes is my hero. Also, I heard that Billy Crudup left his pregnant wife for Claire....SCANDALOUS BEHIND THE SCENES DRAMA!
Also, neither Claire Danes nor Billy Crudup is English. And their accents are pretty much flawless. Even Richard Griffiths was like "wow. i usually have a good ear, but...gosh dang if they ain't the most awesomest fake accent experts ever in the world of fake accent experts."
too true, Richard.
too true.
