  1. What's new in this club
  2. Have fun! I kind of want to go on a cruise. I always thought it'd be cool to see Alaska.
  3. Enjoy your time aboard ship, perhaps it will inspire a new storyline?
  4. Bon voyage, sir. I hope you have a wonderful and relaxing vacation.
  5. Have a wonderful vacation! Hopefully none of us goes into acute withdrawal in your brief absence.
  6. I wanted to give you all a 'head's up'. I'm sailing out of NYC right now on a cruise and I won't be back until next Sunday. I'm not sure if I'll be able to post before then.
  7. Well, Mark, I know you're a 49ers fan (at least mildly) and I have to say I really was rooting for you guys. Oh, well.
  8. I just realized that this British young adult actor Louis Patridge is really close to how I pictured Jack in my mind when I originally read Be Rad in 2009. (Just lighten the dark brown eyes to hazel brown.)
  9. Chapter 4 -When JJ and Kris leave Hairspray and it's clear that JJ's one smitten kitten. "I Can Hear the Bells" from Hairspray -When JJ gets anxiety about his after-date feelings and then calls up Will to get reassurance. "Smile Like You Mean It" by the Killers -When JJ and Kris play striptease with each other before hooking up in the pool. "Breathe On Me" by Britney Spears -When we learn Kris's sob story and JJ is shocked at how a guy he would have dismissed as just a dumb barfry actually did a big emotional brain dump on him. "Sweet Jane" by The Cowboy Junkies
  10. Mark liked Nicholas Galitzine for Kris K. (Just swap out the hazel eyes for blue.) I pictured Sophie Turner as Susannah/Zanie.
  11. Chapter 2 -When JJ is in a (shocker) pissy mood feeling annoyed about his girlfriend, but then meets Kris, the poor noble, and gets instantly smitten. "Me Against the Music" by Britney Spears ft. Madonna -When JJ and Carullo break up, essentially. "If You Leave" by Nada Surf One of those rare covers that are just as good if not better than the original. -When JJ decides to get boy advice from the master. "Milkshake" by Kelis
  12. I finally found my model for Will. Tom Hardy 2002
  13. Renee Rapp would be a hilarious model for a grown up Maddy Graves. LOL I love Gen Z. They're so kooky.
  14. Chapter 1 -When we open on Will and Travis talking in Hawaii. "Love Song by 311
  15. Chapter 105 -When Will walks off, leaving Taylor smiling. "I'm Not A Girl, Not Yet A Woman" by Britney Spears I can't believe I'm closing the book with this, but whatever. It fits. LOL
  16. Chapter 104 -When Taylor Buck kills her father. "Butterfly Kisses" by Bob Carlisle You know, I kind of love taking a sweet song and applying to a twisted moment. LOL I feel like it needed to be something that would be played during a daughter/father dance. LOL
  17. All this talk about past characters made me remember Alexandra Carmichael. The official fancast is Sigourney Weaver. Of course, to align with the age, we need to go with 2010's Sigorney Weaver when she was still in her 60's. (Alex would have to be at least in her 60's, right? She should be close to the age of Isidore, JP, and Fred, who are all late 50's/early 60's.) Such a stunning woman! She's aged incredibly well as a 70-something. I'm assuming she's gone to the school of, "don't do much, keep it subtle."
  18. Great work, Private Tim. I do believe that Ace divorced Cass and got back with his European fling from Man In Motion. That was basically how Mark wrote off his character. Can't remember which book that happened in- maybe Flux? I feel like Ace was around for 9/11 but dipped out after that.

  20. Maybe she did shoot him but did not intend to kill him. But shooting someone in the head I am pretty sure it's a I want you dead kind of shot.
  21. My thoughts are that Curtis wouldn't suicide for all the reasons others have stated, narcissistic, cowardice etc. He probably thought right up to the end that he could turn his fortunes around and ruin everyone who dared attack the "Great Curtis Buck" My two picks are Taylor - either daddy told her to dump Zach and she actually woke up that he is a sick incestuous paedophile because she really loves Zach OR daddy dumped her as a f*ck toy and she actually woke up that he is a sick incestuous paedophile. In both scenarios, she and/or Zach could have worked out for her to conveniently have a mental breakdown therefore become the victim or not be able to be prosecuted. Zach - because Curtis could have told Zach that he was going to out him anyway to get back at him for holding the blackmail over his head. Now everyone knows about Taylor and Curtis so Zach doesn't have that protection anymore. After all Curtis has history of outing and ruining people i.e. Jake. Also Curtis may have told Taylor to dump Zach and Zach may have thought that if Curtis was dead Taylor would come back to him. The outside picks were Big, but I just couldn't see him actually pulling the trigger, or Miranda but I truly see her as being just as sick and twisted, and too self centered to think of killing Curtis. Isn't it strange that we are so invested! This is so like who shot JR (even in Australia lol)
  22. actually the police don't know cause incest is illegal in all 50 states
  23. While I voted for suicide in the first poll, I've changed my mind. Curtis was too narcissistic to kill himself. I'm changing to Taylor who was my backup choice. Her melt down and hospitalization are part of her manipulation.
  24. They already knew. Travis dropped that bombshell at the party right after he played the tape of Curtis raping Sierra Gardner. Given that the party was held at the Beverly Hills Hotel, it's a safe bet that most of southern California knows.
