Watching and rewatching this is making me incredibly happy. Especially the part where Richard Armitage sings. *quietly fangirls*
Ever since I fell in love with Diana Peterfreund 's Secret Society Girl series last year, I've been hoping I'd get the chance to interview her here. Tomorrow marks the release of her new novel, Rampant , and let me tell you that you have not read a book like this before. You can read my review here , but all you really need to know is that it's a story about killer unicorns and the young women who hunt them. You want to read it now, don't you? Oh, yeah, and it's YA and the first in a series! To celebrate the release, Diana graciously answered a few of my most burning questions. As she is always a delight, I know you'll enjoy them as much as I did. First things first: When did the idea for Rampant first hit you and what (if anything) did you know right off the bat? In early 2005, just after selling Secret Society Girl , I had this dream of being chased by a very dangerous unicorn. I woke up and went to go look it up to see if I could figure out the meanin...
What a particularly awesome thing to have seen today. Thank you for pointing it out, Angie. Come on NEXT December! :D
ReplyDeleteI am also thrilled to death that Richard Armitage is in this movie!
ReplyDeleteOh how I love me some geek fantasy! And Richard Armitage? Still looks good, even as a dwarf.
ReplyDeleteNo surprises that the RA singing bit was my favourite part too!
ReplyDeletePrecious.....Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteAck, I HAVE to read the book before this comes out. I'm already ashamed enough that I haven't read it already. It looks amazing!
ReplyDeleteI am so there with you. I mean, with a voice like that, I figured he could sing, but...still.
ReplyDeleteIs any one else tempted to start calling him "Thorton" Oakenshield?
ReplyDeleteSo excited for this. Equally excited for June 2012 when the Hobbit and LOTR Lego sets hit the stores.
LOL - I think I need to go re-read this book so I can imagine Richard Armitage in it. I didn't know about him when I first read it years ago.
ReplyDeleteUsually I don't like to have the movie characters in my head while I read. I like my imagination better. But in this case, I will make an exception. :)
sigh....no matter how you dress him up, you can't hide the awesome that is Richard Armitage.
ReplyDeleteKenda, I know. A whole year . . .
ReplyDeleteLin, *highfive* Yay for RA!
Melissa, lol. So true. So true.
Marg, I knew you'd be particularly pleased with that bit. ;)
baby, my pleasure.
Melanie, doesn't it? And, naturally, I really do recommend the book.
Chelle, indeed. I just . . . sigh.
Kim, HA! That is what I am calling him from here on out.
Misti, if ever an exception were warranted, it's now!
Liz, you are so right.
