Divergent vs Twilight

Saturday March 29, 2014 at 11:38 PM

So, you guys convinced me to see it last night. Husband hated the teen girls audience, that wasn't that quiet, though not 1/100 as crazy and loud as the Twilighted audience. However, unlike Twilight he didn't want to kill himself or me. Maybe he would if the story had more romance and less, much less action, like I wanted. Also, I'm not sure I can handle any more teenage female leading characters. But at least there was some serious eye-candy going on there. Apparently we've given Summit enough money to get gorgeous actors this time. If only this guy had played Edward Cullen. I just knew there was something Greek man looking about Theo James (btw Theo means God bwahahaha). And he hasn't bashed the movie or the book or his character. Would have been much more appealing if there was angst involved (e.g. Tris' rape fears could have made him very anxious about how to proceed). What is it with female Christian (Mormons are Christian, right?) writers vs sex? I for one could never have suspected Stephenie Meyer was actually the most progressive of all three (the Hunger games author included. Hated that movie though).

The King

Friday March 28, 2014 at 12:06 PM

SO, the latest BDB book comes out next week.  Anyone buying it?

Haven't decided if I will pony up, or wait.  I got $14 in free Amazon book credit, so I may buy it for my Kindle.  We'll see.  I wasn't a fan of the last book, but I like that she's circling back to the original characters I loved.

 

Long live the King…

After turning his back on the throne for centuries, Wrath, son of Wrath, finally assumed his father’s mantle--with the help of his beloved mate. But the crown sets heavily on his head. As the war with the Lessening Society rages on, and the threat from the Band of Bastards truly hits home, he is forced to make choices that put everything--and everyone--at risk.

Beth Randall thought she knew what she was getting into when she mated the last pure blooded vampire on the planet: An easy ride was not it. But when she decides she wants a child, she’s unprepared for Wrath’s response--or the distance it creates between them.

The question is, will true love win out... or tortured legacy take over?

Getting Your ff Fix

Thursday March 27, 2014 at 8:55 PM

You know the feeling...a ff updates and you simply must read it!

Where's the strangest place you've ever read ff, or the craziest excuse you've given when you just had to read in peace? I was discussing this with abellebiter, who made me suggested I light a CF.

Good morning, ADF Ladies (and Gents)! 

Let's talk about Rainy Days today.

Please post your favorite rainy day pics (either taken by you, or your favorite photos that you admire that are someone else's).

Alternatively, you can also share your favorite rainy day activities.

I love rain shots, but can never get them quite right.  These pics aren't mine.

 

For next week:

Let's share pics of favorite spots off the beaten path.  It can be a quaint cafe you found in your travels, or that special place you like to go and think or write or create.  Show us your version of Edward's meadow.  :)

It's been awhile since I've done a movie post. So in the comments I'm gonna post trailers for upcoming films I'm looking forward to. But I'm gonna start with this one for reasons:

 
 
To make this interactive please come in and talk about what movies you're looking forward to or even just talk about things you've seen recently that you really liked. Any genre, theatrical release or not. And feel free to post trailers too if you like. Just be polite about spoilers as always.

Pulled wolf fics Twilight

Wednesday March 26, 2014 at 6:34 AM

You can find a ton of places that list pulled fics for the "vamp" side of the fandom, but I can't find any lists for pulled Team Wolf fics.  I would love it if you guys gave me some titles of pulled wolf fics (canon or all human) featuring J/B or ANY pairing with a wolf character.  (Pulled or pulled to publish)

Also, if you know of any team wolf authors who have completely left the fandom and have pulled all their work, I would be greatly appreciative! 

Thanks! 

Howdy!

Per the Rules/FAQ section, we appreciate a quid pro quo if you're requesting something from our campers. Please share a favorite fic (link it up if you can) in the O.P. Thank you.

Fic Diving 3-25-14

Tuesday March 25, 2014 at 7:36 AM

 

Diving Deep for Fan Fic Treasures

Each week I will brave the treacherous waters of Fan Fiction for buried treasure. Below are the gems I've found this week!

Well folks, we all know the perils of fic diving. This week the waters were rough, and the spoils were few.

First Kiss by VampiresDontHaveLaws
Two strangers. One kiss. A new beginning. OOC AH.

This one....I'm torn.  It's based on the viral video of the strangers kissing for the first time that exploded on the web a few weeks ago.  I was totally into the first 4 chapters. Last night, I get the Chapter 5 update to find that she wrapped it all up and marked it complete.  Definitely worth the read, but I am so dying for more. 

FLASH BACK FIC DIVE:

Always bountiful booty here!

Dark Goddess: E&B Version by Lissa Bryan
A free-spirited archaeologist & a shy, absent-minded genius find a 500 year old vampire who thinks she's a goddess. They’re trying to sneak back to the US, teach her about the modern world, and trying very, very hard not to fall in love with the Dark Goddess. OOC/AU/Rated M

If you want an outside-the-box original ExB fan fic. Lissa is your girl!

The Cellar by iambeagle
Boy meets Girl. Girl's friend throws up on Boy's shoes. A story about wannabe hipsters, awkward moments, and soul mates.

I find myself laughing out loud at the banter between  ExB.  I wish this Edward was my real life boyfriend.

And just for something new.  A Harry Potter Fic.
Save Me From Myself by ginbean13
Harry's lost his way since the defeat of Voldemort. Everyone around him is becoming fed up of his attitude including the one girl he can't give up. How much more can she give when all he ever does is take? *COMPLETE*

Angsty, lemony.  Few grammar flubs, but I love the HP world in an adult setting. I might rec more of this if I can find more good stuff. Let me know what you see out there.

July will mark the Fic Dive's one year anniversary! Right now I have almost 150 stories that have been included in the Fic Dive (not including the Flash Backs), and more will be added in the next few months.  Keep track of your favorites and we'll vote in July for the Fic Dives of the Year!

Thank you for supporting this Campfire.  I appreciate every comment and love when I skim through reviews and see that ADF's Fic Dive is mentioned.  Let's keep the Forest growing and thriving! Don't forget to feed a tree!
