I'm awfully excited to be a part of this unique blog tour in celebration of the release of Forever by the insanely talented Maggie Stiefvater . Scholastic recently launched an online community called This Is Teen to connect readers with their favorite YA authors and books. Visit their page on Facebook for all the latest news on Maggie Stiefvater and Forever . Each stop on the tour is hosting a particular character from the Wolves of Mercy Falls trilogy, and I have the good luck to be the stop for Sam--my favorite emo-wolfboy! Sam is so very endearing, in a decidedly non-angsty or overt way. His breathtaking blend of maturity and vulnerability tugs at my heartstrings and the strength of his relationship with Grace is unswerving. He is warm and thoughtful and artistic, and I liked him right from the start of the series . Because I can't resist, here are two of my favorite Sam quotes, the first from Grace's point of view in Shiver and the second from Sam&
AAAAHH!! I'm so excited!!
ReplyDeleteI KNOW!
DeleteI avoided clicking on the trailer until now for the very reason you listed, Angie, but I just couldn't resist any longer. Trailer is awesome! Cannot wait. But we'll have to. *cries*
ReplyDeleteHehe. Sorry to push you over the edge, Wendy. It looks SO good. Why is November so far away?
DeleteI got chills watching that!!!
ReplyDeleteSo did I, Lin! I'm vibrating with excitement.
DeleteCatching Fire was my favorite of the books, so I am crazy-excited for this movie. And I'm so interested in the political stuff they're adding in to explain what's happening beyond Katniss' POV. Eeeeeee!
ReplyDeleteIt's such a super middle book. I can't wait to see it all play out on the big screen.
Deletewhat! I hadn't even known this was out until this very moment. Wow. It looks even better than the first one and more true to the book. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteIt reduces me to a puddle of anxiety and excitement. Cannot wait.
DeleteNovember?! I thought it was going to be released in the summer for some reason. BLERG.
ReplyDeleteBut anyway, GALE. Interesting that they left Finnick out of the trailer.
Ugh. Depressing, isn't it?
DeleteYeah, I was kind of waiting to see the other victors (ESPECIALLY Finnick), but I'm kind of glad they didn't show them so there's more to anticipate.
It's entirely too long to wait. It looks awesome and I got prouder chills seeing Katniss, Peers and Haymitch in front of the whipping post.
ReplyDeleteThe whipping post . . . *sob*
DeleteI <3 Haymitch. Seeing the three of them together does make me proud. Mockingjay is likely going to kill me.
Awesome trailer! I am so in love with it and it's gonna be great! I'm soooo excited. :)
ReplyDeleteIt is definitely going to be great.
Deletethat was beyond awesome! and we didn't even see the arena. looks a little more gritty and a little more funded. (who wouldn't throw more money to their cash cow?) i was excited for november, but now i can't wait. i had goosebumps.
ReplyDeleteI know! It seems like they took stuff just from the first section of the film. Which was smart, I think. I'm still jumpy.
DeleteI can not stop watching this!
ReplyDeleteIt's addicting. I love Jennifer Lawrence. I'm so glad she's Katniss.
Deletedefinitely waiting!! I've heard this is good.
ReplyDeleteSO good.
DeleteI'm so excited for this! I really liked the first movie so I think the 2nd one will be just as good.
ReplyDeleteSo did I! I'm so excited.
