Hadley: The Preferred Sookie

Mar 11, 2013 20:49

Ha. The movie channels strike again. I ended up watching Quills with a younger Steven Moyer in it, the other night. And since I rarely think of True Blood, I had my one and only epiphany on how I think it will go this season. I reckon, in True Blood style, Bill will stake himself as B1000 - which will wrench the heart of every fangirl (either up or ( Read more... )

the second wife freyda, all rhodes lead to atd, run like the wind sookie!, love isn't brains it's blood, you just got deadlocked, let's talk dead reckoning, hunter -s- and collectors, bill compton - sweetheart, sophie anne - 1100 y.o., sookie stackhouse - 28, rage against the machine, travails of the svm fandom, the art of arse backwards, r.i.p. hadley delahoussaye, dead until dark premiere, vampire politics = drama, vamps=dangerous liaisons, wimmens the root of all evil, always vampires first, eric northman the lover, happily ever afters 'n' such, love for bill - definitely dead

So did you like Quills? I saw it years and years ago and loved it. I didn't realize that was Stephen Moyer in it though ( ... )

I did - I've been interested in the Marquis de Sade for years, so I liked the movie. Great dramatisation of the real events, but still. Steven Moyer was the lover of the young wife of the doctor. The architect that Michael Caine hired ( ... )

I think I've only read Justine out of le Marquis de Sade's work, but that was way back in my uni days, and I'd probably see it in different light now. I did download it for a reread though ;) Still a great movie though. That scene where Kate Winslet dies is terrible.

I've come across a fair few ebooks that I couldn't purchase. Some are only available to us on audio, and others where you can buy only one title but not the others by the same author.

I figured as much.. And Sookie is living proof of that too.

Funny how ALL of Sookie's (and Eric's) problems would magically go away if she would just apologise, dammit!

I liked Sophie-Anne. She's an against-all-odds woman. I also like the QOK. Whats is wrong with me? :D

Oh yes, if for nothing but the squeeing! I'll miss dicussions like this after DEA. But hey, CH has a new series coming out ;)

I haven't read more than a few snippets of his work, but I was fascinated by his life, and the things that he did. The way that he just had no boundaries. de Sade was the epitome of the French aristocracy and why people hated them ( ... )

As a teen, I read voraciously. I read anything that I could get my hands on. If there were lines on a page, I would read them. I would even read the shampoo bottle lol. My dad had a massive library, maybe around 2000 books and periodicals at the time, and I must have read the whole thing at some point. Downside is it's all jumbled up in my head, and I have only a vague recollection of some of the works.
As for the Marquis de Sade, if you read some of his responses to criticism against him, you'd think he was but a paragon virtue. He was eloquent and knew how to turn the tables and how to make a good case.

Yeah. You'd definitely be recognisable. In a good way. :D

Oh me too - that's where I got most of the romance books I read, until my Uncle dumped a whole heap of books and I read "The Last Man on Earth" and threw myself into his old horror collection.

He fascinated me as a teenager, and I read all about him and the French revolution. I was also the top student in French, so that made him even more fascinating. He also seemed to skip so much of the turmoil of the time, and just skate through.

I might get by if I wasn't Australian, and fudged what I do. :D
