And fantasy authors like Tolkien and Rowling, but lately I've been going back to some of my very favourites, Victorian-set mysteries, for humour: Elizabeth Peters (Her Amelia Peabody series is not to be missed) and for grit: Anne Perry. <br /><br />I'm currently reading The Alienist and its blowing my mind, I can't believe I didn't read it sooner.<br /><br />Lady Graeye,<br />I'm so glad to hear it! I don't actually know a lot of the up and coming young talents as far as who I'd like to play Percy. She may be one of those 'discover a new ingenue' roles. As for if any of Percy's qualities are like mine, I'd say a few. When Percy gets really passionate, and she lights up and goes suddenly a bit fan-girl about something, that is VERY me. I can turn from my 30 year old self into childlike, unabashed rapture in seconds. Also, her ability to think of eerie things as beautiful is also how I see the world.<br /><br />Patti,<br />I love that it caused a double-take reaction, this photos has been such a fun and also important thing to have - some real representation of a girl that I describe all the time in the book but very few people can maintain an accurate mental picture about.<br /><br />Cheers all!Leanna Renee Hieberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10687827421608625020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-410662069326714832.post-76412920123858557232010-04-24T20:06:24.546-04:002010-04-24T20:06:24.546-04:00Great interview!
