The Unicorn Club #2: Maria's Movie Comeback

Jan 09, 2008 15:41

Here's a rare thing- a Unicorn Club recap!
WOOT!

This particular book is narrated by Maria Slater. Yes, the Maria Slater. You know, famous child star who was of young Drew Barrymore talent and adorability. Maria constantly mentions her super brilliant career, and how she will go back to Hollywood one day. That is, if they'll still want you Maria. ( Read more... )

Fun fact; in Stephen King's book "It", the store where Bill finds his old bike, is also called Secondhand Rose. Is it a common American store name or has it a meaning in some way?

It's a Barbra Streisand song.
Pretty common name for thrift shops (op-shops?).
Also it rhymes with Second Hand Clothes.

Fun fact: For as impressive a name as the Unicorner might be....after the club splits into Unicorns and Angels the Angels name their table The Angeliner. Unicorner becomes just brilliant by comparison.

I recently spent a month laid up with a back injury and sadly my main activity was reading through my embarrassingly broad stash of Sweet Valley's various series and writing snarky recaps in my head. I ended up kind of liking this incarnation, but there were many moments that made me actually yell at the book, and "Angeliner" was one of those moments. What does that even mean? Is it a play on cruise liner? Eye liner? Or am I missing something here?

I loved this one! ext_696229 July 4 2011, 18:11:42 UTC

I loved it when Maria calls janet Howell a Big Bossy Snob.I also love it when The Unicorns got jackets for participating in the movie,with their names on the front.
