I know that attaching memories to books may be going out of the world, but while it lasts, it's a strong record of your life. ↗

It wasn't conscious, but I guess that one book is the reaction to the other. The first is so imprisoned in a male point-of-view, and the second is a point-of-view that can go anywhere it wants. ↗

The book has many different characteristics: some are extremely old-fashioned storytelling traits, but there are also a fair number of postmodern traits, and the self-consciousness is one. ↗

I love watching the Bond movies obviously and I grew up reading the books as a kid. I've always loved them because of that. ↗

We've been shooting the last two weeks with a lot of vampires. I don't want to give away too much, but if you've read the books, it's the standoff with lots of vampires in play. There's like 70 people going through the works at once. It's a little maddening, but fun. We shot pretty much the ending of the two movies the other day. ↗

What I like about the third movie is you get to see a side of Carlisle you haven't seen before. You actually get to see what his vampire capabilities are because there's some great battle sequences. It's my favorite book. Carlisle is holding on to that humanity. He doesn't want to be a vampire. ↗

When you re-read a classic you do not see in the book more than you did before. You see more in you than there was before. ↗

And that's why any of my picture books exist: They all seem to be built backwards from a simple, emotionally optimistic story beat. ↗
