A couple of things
Love is Hell, an anthology including stories by me and Scott as well as Melissa Marr, Laurie Faria Stolarz and Gabrielle Zevin is now available in the US of A. The extra good news is that it’s a paperback. Cheapness!
A portion of the proceeds of Love is Hell will benefit College Summit, a nonprofit that helps more kids get into college.
Let The Right One In is a Swedish vampire movie set in the early 1980s. It’s also one of the best genre movies I’ve seen in years—scrap that—it’s one of the best movies—no modifier needed—that I’ve seen in years. You all need to go see it. Not least because every time I think there’s nothing new that can be done with vampires, someone does something new and fabulous.

We are planning to see Let the Right One In tomorrow! The trailers look amazing.

Becky Says:
I really want to see this movie but I have a question. Is there any animal violence in it? It’s kind of horror-ish looking so I want to know before I go see it.
Thanks!

Julia Rios: The film is truly amazing.
Becky: No animals are hurt. It’s not a scary movie. I am a scaredy cat and I wasn’t afraid while watching it. Though it can be tense and disturbing. But there aren’t jump out of your seat scary bits.

I really want to see that one. I just saw Twilight last night, and my brain needs cleansing.

I will have to rent it when it comes out! (Also, why are no happy movies out right now? Like, GOOD happy ones? Last Friday, as per Thanksgiving Time tradition, my dad took my sister and me to the movies, and while The Boy In The Striped Pajamas was very good, it was not full of uplifting family fun. >.>)
