New crush + possible purchase

I kind of sort of fell in love with James McAvoy. So my current crush list consists of James McAvoy and Josh Groban. You approve? Yes? No?

Still waiting on Heroes. It feels odd that there was an eppie yesterday because there haven't been that many reactions or at least there wasn't this morning. It felt kind of unexpected.

I'm thinking about buying Atonement and read it before the movie comes out (it doesn't come out until like... January 2100, or so it feels like). Yay? Nay? I know some have read it - is it worth the money?

I approve!

I bought Atonement the other week so I can read it before I see the movie (this is me giving Ian McEwan a second chance - I was scarred by his stupid writing at A-level), but I haven't had time to read yet :/

Couldn't approve more, James McAvoy is charming and sexy. And talented.
I haven't seen many reactions on Heroes either...wonder if it's bad news :)

Totally approve! James McAvoy is super cute and most importantly, an amzing actor!!

Did you read my review of Atonement? It's totally spoiler-free! I bought the book last friday and read the book over the weekend, I just couldn't put it down. You should def read it before the movie (which in here comes out in January as well!)

I haven't read the book yet (it's on my list) but everyone I know that's read it has adored it, if that helps.

By the way, love the layout ;)

Yay for approval :D

A-level? What other books have he done?

[identity profile] aliasagent.livejournal.com 2007-10-30 04:36 pm (UTC)(link)
*grin* I'm glad we see things the same way.

I have a good feeling about the episode but the lack of reviews makes me worried.

He definitely is. He totally made me squee in Narnia (and made me ship him with Lucy) and he was super in Becoming Jane.

I'm not sure. Maybe. Not sure. What kind of writing does the author have? What other authors does the writing make you think of? (I'm such a geek when it comes to how books are written, I swear)

Does it go out in January everywhere? Feels like... everyone's seen it

[identity profile] aliasagent.livejournal.com 2007-10-30 04:39 pm (UTC)(link)
That probably helps. I just say: Hello purchase! :D

I'm glad you like it. I do too, if I may be so bold. It's not entirely perfect but damn close in my opinion. Imperfect is the new perfect after all

[identity profile] wickedground.livejournal.com 2007-10-30 04:41 pm (UTC)(link)
I totally approve of both :D oh Josh, oh James!

[identity profile] aliasagent.livejournal.com 2007-10-30 04:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Yay :D There needs to be icons. And preferably icons with BOTH of them! :D O_O I mean, dude... they own. There's something about gents that start with J ;)

I'm really bad at comparing books because I kind of see them as little universes...I don't know...I would say it's very descriptive but at the same time engaging...it's beautifully written but the plot is so engaging that you just can't put it down. It's just a very powefull book.

wow, I really suck at this. hee

[identity profile] okelay.livejournal.com 2007-10-30 06:13 pm (UTC)(link)
i most definitely approve!
james is delicious

APPROVE!!!

James is cute, seen Narnia? :D

Oh me too. I fell in love with him when i watched the Becoming Jane. Argh can't stop thinking about him.

I want to watch Atonement too but i don't wanna see any other war movies :/

Yes, A-level. That's what we study in sixth form at school, age 16-18 :)

Ummm I had to study Child in Time, and he's written Saturday, Beloved? I think. I can't remember; I'm not a huge fan.

LOL I approve of James McAvoy, no idea who Josh Groban is though.

I don't think many people liked the episode for some reason.

I APPROVE!!! *is ded because of fangirliness*

[identity profile] aliasagent.livejournal.com 2007-10-31 01:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course :D He totally made me ship Tumnus/Lucy :D They were the love :D

[identity profile] aliasagent.livejournal.com 2007-10-31 01:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm glad I'm not alone :D He's such a cutie and his Scottish accent is lovely.

I think it's going to be fantastic. Apparently one of the strongest British films in a long time so I'm really excited. I need Atonement icons!

O_O YouTube is your friend (http://youtube.com/results?search_type=search_videos&search_query=josh+groban&search_sort=relevance&search_category=0&page=), however, ignore 'You Raise Me Up'.

Maybe it's because there's not enough action any more? Not much happens, unfortunately.

*dies with you* It's such a lovely way to die :D

[identity profile] bluebear-74.livejournal.com 2007-10-31 02:15 pm (UTC)(link)
OOO I know who he is now!! I remember seeing him on TV here, can't remember if it was him on a show here or just something else.

[identity profile] aliasagent.livejournal.com 2007-10-31 02:25 pm (UTC)(link)
He's so lovely. I mean, if I could sing half as well as he... *sigh* He's great.
