My Obsessions for the week!

The awesome Kelly at KellyVison started posting a weekly post highlighting whatever she happened to be obsessed with that week. I LOVE this idea, so much in fact that I will be doing it myself every Saturday.

So this week my obsessions are:

BOOKS

Stolen by Lucy Christopher

Ok, so this could be either under books/movies.

The author tweeted that Stolen was one step closer to being made into a movie. I did a happy dance. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this book (if you haven't read it, do so immediately) and would love to see it on the big screen. I would want them to cast Ryan Kwanten as Ty.

MOVIES

The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo trailer



There are a few different trailers out. This one is by far my favourite. I am very optimistic about this movie based on this trailer. Rooney Mara seems to have nailed the part of Lisbeth. I am curious to see if they will "soften" Lisbeth for the Hollywood version. I want them to keep her the way she is in the books, it's what makes her so great.

Brandon Lee's last interview



Kathleen Peacock (author of the upcoming Hemlock) had mentioned watching Brandon Lee's last interview on Twitter. I had been obsessed with The Crow when it came out, and Brandon's sad fate has always pulled at my heart. This interview always gets me crying, but apparently I like to cry as I have watched it so many times since Kathleen reminded me of it. I am including it under movies, but it might be more "other".

OTHER

Lindt Advent Calendar



It's December and that means the countdown to Christmas has begun! Every year I have a countdown calendar, and this year mine is from Lindt. It's HUGE. I am already enjoying my daily chocolate surprise.

What are you obsessed with this week?

    It seems I like to cry, too, because I've totally been fighting off the urge to re-watch the interview about fifty times.

I love comments. Thank you for stopping by my blog and thank you even more for leaving me a comment.

I have decided to make this an awards free blog. I appreciate the gesture, and love that you thought of my blog, however I simply can't pass them along as required.
