Merry Christmas!

I just wanted 2 wish everybody a Merry Christmas. My winter break started 2day so I got 2 sleep in, which was awesome. I've been watching Christmas movies all day. I've watched "A Year Without Santa", "Home Alone" and I just finished watching "A Christmas Story." I think "A Christmas Story" has got to be one of my favorite Christmas movies ever. There was so much about it that was funny. From the tacky leg lamp 2 the tongue sticking 2 the pole 2 Ralphie beating the crap out of that squirelly kid. What a gr8 movie. Anyways have a wicked and lovely Christmas.

Rent


So who loves the musical "Rent?" I luv, luv, luv it to bits and pieces. I believe everybody has one true obsession in life. Well mine is Rent. Although I used to have a thing 4 Johnny Depp, but that's a whole different story, lol. So if you love Rent, what is your favorite part and song of the play? Mine's... well I can't pick. I love the whole thing. I saw it on Broadway a month before it closed and if it were still open I'd want to keep going back. Viva La Vie Boheme! and Thank You Jonathan Larson!

The only WL news 4 the day is that Melissa Has updated her blog.

A Formal Apology


My previous post of the new YA novel "Wondrous Strange" was quite hateful. I'd like to apologize to the author, Lesley Livingston. I am so sorry for freaking out and jumping to conclusions of the story being a Wicked Lovely rip off. I keep rereading the post and I keep thinking "God, I am a rabid fangirl." Something of which I hate (rabid fangirls). It wasn't fair of me to judge the book before it was even on bookshelves and for that I am truly sorry. I take back that entire freak-out, but alas I'm 16 years old so freaking out is what I do best, lol. Once again so sorry Lesley and I hope you can forgive me.

Wondrous Strange


I smell a RAT! Does anybody think this sounds like a rip off of Wicked Lovely? Look at the title and the story is about faeries. WTH. As a fan of both the book (Wicked Lovely) and Melissa Marr's I'm disgraced. I might be wrong however so I'll give the book a try but I doubt I'll like it seeing the editorial reviews at Barnes and Nobles weren't so great. I get a strange feeling that this book won't be good but it'll have delusional fans gaining the book attention. Why must all the good books (not including Harry Potter or the Chronicles of Narnia) not get the much deserved attention? I'm not happy 2day as you can tell.

Chosen


No Wicked Lovely news 4 2day. I did however finish reading the third installment of the "House of Night" series 2day though. Zoey shocked me, I must say. I give the ending a big "WHAT!" and now my head really hurts. I can't believe she did "you know what" with "you know who." I'm trying to be all spoiler free but it just sounds like I'm going all Harry Potter on you guys. BTW did you know it's being made into a movie? I personally think it be a better tv series but what-ev. I never pictured anybody as the characters except Jessica Stroup (90210) as Zoey, Aly Michalka (Phil of the Future) as Stevie Rae and Amber Heard (Hidden Palms; The Pineapple Express) as Aphrodite. I'm probably going 2 get "Untamed" 4 Christmas.

On a side note, my friend Michelle loves this singer named AJ Rafael. Apparently he's a beast on the piano, lol. Take a look for yourself.

Wicked Lovely: The Movie (If I Could Cast)

My recent post was about how I want Robyn Richards to play Donia if Wicked Lovely ever becomes a movie. Well a few months ago I created a little slideshow of who I think should play who. Because it was months ago my opinion has changed a little mainly on who should play Seth and Tavish. But everybody else in the video is who I still want to see play the characters.

In other WL news, Melissa Marr has updated her blog and Pheona back at the Rath & Ruins forum is selling WL inspired jewelry on eBay. The profits go to a great cause so please check it out here: http://shop.ebay.com/merchant/ravenholtonline/

Without further ado here's my WL Movie Cast.

Robyn Richards


Anyone who knows me knows that I desperately want Robyn Richards to play Donia if Wicked Lovely ever becomes a movie. In my eyes she's the perfect Donia. I luv Robyn so much, she is soooo talented. I talk about it so much that if WL is ever a movie Robyn Richards should be Donia and Chace Crawford should be Keenan (I keep obsessing over it that my friends get frustrated and want to hit me now, lol). I think they'd (RR & CC) have good chemistry too although I just can't assume things. So here's a clip of Robyn on "General Hospital." Believe me there are better clips than this one but it's hard to find them of her on youtube.

Love Is Hell


Love is Hell has been released! (I'm sure it's been released for a few days though) I was in Barnes and Nobles when I saw it and I purchased my copy right away. Melissa's story is all the way in the back. I'm glad because it saves the best for last. Make sure to buy a copy and support Melissa! I'm sure this story will be wonderful just like Wicked Lovely and Ink Exchange.

Also Melissa has updated her blog. http://melissa-writing.livejournal.com/

The Persephone Theory

Big props to whoever came up with this theory. With the release of Fragile Eternity coming up, speculation of what will happen in Melissa Marr's third book in the Wicked Lovely series is going around. Here are the roles that supposedly the FE characters play in the third book.

Seth - Persephone
Aislinn - Demeter
Sorcha - Hades
Keenan - Zeus
Donia - Helios
Tavish - Hermes

Go to the wickedlovely.com podcast to hear the full discussion.

Basically in the Persephone myth Hades goes to Zeus and gets consent of making Persephone his bride. He abducts Persephone and takes her to the underworld. Demeter, Persephone's mother searches for her and eventually goes to the sun god, Helios who sees everything, and asks where her daughter is. Helios tells her exactly what happened and Demeter then goes to Zeus demanding she get her daughter back. Zeus refuses but reconsiders when Demeter, who is the goddess of grain, becomes very sad which makes the crops wither, making mortals hungry. Zeus sends Hermes to get Persephone back before she eats anything in the underworld. But when Hermes arrives he discovers that Hades tricked Persephone into eating six pomegranate seeds. Demeter and Hades argue over the fact and Zeus comes to the decision that for six months Persephone will stay with Hades and for the remaining six months Persephone will stay with her mother.

So the theory is that Seth gets sent away to Sorcha by Keenan because there is the possibility of Seth learning what Keenan did to Niall in Ink Exchange and blabbing away to Aislinn. That's the worst thing to happen to Keenan because he needs Aislinn to keep summer intact. So Keenan sends Seth to Sorcha because Sorcha takes the sighted mortals. Aislinn searches for Seth because she's in love with him. If there's one person Aislinn turns to besides Seth, it's Donia. Donia like Helios who sees everything, sees everything that Keenan does. Maybe not in a literal sense, but she is aware of just how far Keenan will go to. Donia tells Aislinn what happened. Aislinn goes to Keenan demanding Seth be returned. Keenan will refuse. When he refuses, Aislinn will most likely neglect her duties as summer queen, which changes Keenan's mind. So Keenan will send Tavish, (in the role of Hermes; the messenger of the gods) who was once apart of the High court to get Seth. In INK we learned Tavish was off negotiating with the High court (kind of like a messenger). So I think it makes most sense for Tavish to play that particular role. But like everybody who speculated this the conclusion is a bit fuzzy. My guess is that like Persephone, Seth will have to pay the price of staying with Sorcha, maybe not forever but still for some amount of time. I shudder the thought but I also guess like Persephone he may have to become Sorcha significant other, if you know what I mean. I think Sorcha might fall in love with Seth.

So that's the Persephone Theory for those of you who didn't know. I think Maria back at the Rath & Ruins forum did a much better job at explaining it than me. LOL.

Also on a side note, I love this song by Linkin Park. Here's the download for "Leave Out All The Rest." http://www.mediafire.com/?x0agebgyign

Welcome Lovelies!


Welcome to my Wicked Lovely Blog! You can find news about all things Wicked and Lovely here. I will also blog about other things that may not pertain to the main topic. So this is my first blog and I'm so excited.

First things first. The Fragile Eternity cover came out about a week ago or so. What do you think of it? I personally thought it was going to be green. I don't think it's as good as the previous covers but it is still fine.
