So, the hubby and I watched The Mortal Instruments, City of Bones this afternoon. What an awesome movie. I found out that it is based on a book and that there are 5 books and few spin offs. Has anyone read this series to know if it is any good?

The writer started out writing fanfiction - I believe Harry Potter. Some rumors of plagiarism involving the fanfics which kind of turned me off on her.  But the Mortal Instruments series is all original. It was really big a few years ago. Haven't heard much since the movie come out.  I think Hunger Games overshadowed it.  I've heard mixed reviews, but mostly good or not bad. The movies didn't do well. But I've seen parts. I think if you haven't read the books, it isn't a bad movie. My husband liked what he saw of it.

I also bought the first book but it is still in the pile of stuff that got pushed aside for fanfics.

I've always heard the MI series takes quite a bit from her Draco Dormiens series, and that Jace was essentially her version of Draco. I've never read either one, because of all the stuff about Clare AND I prefer my fics to have a Harry/Draco romance, and I believe they are just friends in the fic.  The movie kinda sucked though, from what I watched of it. From what I hear, the movie left out too much, and that a person who hadn't read the books might be a bit lost.

I'm reading the last book of the All Souls Trilogy and enjoying it!  I quit reading The Sheik Retold after about 30%.  It's really bad.

Ella - I love your google drive too!!

I read Knight and liked it ok, but wasn't crazy about it.   Isn't that the one where she calls him "daddy"? LOL

Demaris, have you read any of Kristen Ashley's Fantasyland series?  You watched Game of Thrones, right?  If so and you liked the Khal Drogo storyline you REALLY need to read the Golden Dynasty (book 2 of the Fantasyland series).

I loved the first 3 books of the TMI series, but was extremely disappointed with the 4th book and think that the series must have originally been intended to be a trilogy.   I was really excited to see the movie but I thought it was horrible.  So much of it was just sooo bad!  There are also spinoffs from the book series that are really good too!  Check them out.

Like I mentioned the hubby and I both liked the movie, but we, or rather, I haven't read the books yet. My opinion of the movie may change once I have had the chance to read the books. The movie has really left me wanting more. I plan to read the series, I just have to buy them first.

I have the series I've not read them yet though! I saw the movie in the theater when it came out though

Haven't read any of the books but my daughter has them all and like the series. Though she was a nit disappointed in the last few ones. We liked the movie too. Am not going to read the books though. Am the type that if i've seen the movie, i will no longer read the book.  But if i read the book, i will defintely watch the movie version. 

A bit late on this topic, but i absolutely hate people with strong perfumes. What's worse, the older they are, they seem to put on more and it's the pungent and super strong kind  Maybe they don't like taking a bath bec they get cold easily at that age and just try to mask it with perfume/cologne. 

Love seeing Rob so happy! He   to be always smiling with twigs. Laughed out loud with that pic of his cheek grab! Naughty boy! He can do it to me anytime! 

Great, what are they up to now?

 

there was a writer that posted about 40 stories in a 3 week period. Some writers discovered she was paraphrasing their stories and reported her. She stated she got the ideas from them but it was all her original work and refused to remove them and reported the authors for harassment.  FFnet suspended the author's account without checking it out. And the plagiarizer sent nasty pm's to anyone who said anything to her about copying stories. There was more.  So the harrasser continued to copy and harrass and the legit writers get punished.  It's been going on for almost 3 months and FFnet wouldn't remove the stories. Though they all disappeared today after a petition was sent to them. 

So they pull stories with no notice for having sex in them, but take three months to remove plagiarized stories.
