The amazing story of us

Wow imagine how they could integrate the amazing story of us iN THE MOVIE? Okay so, after Chubs got shot and Liam and Ruby are taken in by the League, they do not say anything about Chubs (because let’s face it, not knowing might attract such interest to non-readers who see the movie). So they’re at the safe house and Ruby implicitly makes a deal with Cate to let Liam go. Then Ruby goes to the room with Liam and THEY ACTUALLY SHOW the amazing story of us instead of telling it. So, we see them on a beach, obviously Ruby is in this beautiful green dress and we see them as they meet and grow fond of each other and when they’re almost at the “kissing” point, Ruby just disappears like sand blown by the wind. ANd then we see her disappear the same way in every other memory Liam has of her. ANd then we’re back at the safe house and Liam doesn’t know RUby anymore. And then he leaves, calling her “darlin” one last time”

AND THEN THE MOVIE IS OVER 

AND WE’RE ALL DEAD!!!!!!

UPDATE : JUST LET ME FUCKING CRY FOREVER

Here are my thoughts on the darkest minds trailer: [endless screaming]

—The Darkest Minds (pg. 120), Alexandra Bracken (gifs via this video)

the darkest minds fandom right now

me @ fox

y’all i’m still quaking over the fact that we have frickin frackin brienne of tarth playing lady jane in the darkest minds movie like if that gal has a sword good luck @ black betty crew you’re screwed

Underrated tdm scenes :

1) When ruby nearly punched that kid at walmart for insulting zu

2) It taking ruby 0.5 seconds after meeting Cole to figure out how much he cares about Liam.

3) The hair dye scene! my girls doing something normal for once and just chilling

4) Chubs taking care of ruby in nf

5) Liam telling jude horror stories while they’re on watch

6) When Liam steals gas and ruby questions “the music of his soul” while he just claims to be born on the backseat of a bus ( ‘I was the Miracle Bus Boy for the first three years of my life’)

7) Cole hugging liam in the end of nf (your concern is showing dude)

8) Vida standing up to Chubs after his and Ruby’s fight

9) Ruby and Chubs bonding over charades and candy and then hugging the hell out of each other when they crack the code while a sleepy Liam shows up and is a ball of confusion and then goes back inside and comes back again bc hey don’t they both hate each other

10) Cole’s breakdown

11) Liam bringing Ruby a CD of The Beach Boys’ Pet Sounds after randomly finding it in the car because it reminded him of her

12) “Take care of things, boss”

“Take care of him.” (legendary last words)

TDM Special Editions Virtual Signing!

Before I jump back into my regular blogging schedule, I wanted to let you know about another opportunity to pre-order the TDM special editions. Good Choice Reading is graciously hosting the virtual signing again! I won’t be touring for the release of these editions (in fact, you probably won’t see me out and about until next fall), so this is your chance to get them signed and personalized. 👍🏻

As a reminder, TDM has a prequel short story centered on Liam and Cole, NF has a prequel story about how Vida came to be with the Children’s League, ITA has a story centered on Clancy, and TtD has very special TO BE REVEALED bonus content. I’m DYING to share what it is, because I think you guys will be suuuuper into it. At least I hope you’ll be!

These paperbacks will be on sale January 2, 2018 in the United States. I’ve had a few people ask about translated editions of the short stories, and I wish I had more information for you. They’ve been offered to the international publishers, and it’s up to them about how they want to use them. I’ll keep you updated! In the meantime, if you’re desperate to get your hands on them and you’re outside of the US, Good Choice Reading ships internationally.

what you said was very sweet and means a lot to me but i am incapable of properly responding in any way besides “thank you so much aaaah” because i do not know how to accurately express the exact level of my gratitude to where you completely understand how much what you said meant to me without me getting even more emotional and looking like a fucking nerd: an autobiography
