And so the Lion Fell in Love with the Lamb


Breaking Dawn Predictions and Fan Fiction:
Will he, will she? Hot or cold, heartbeat or hollow? Fangs or fur?
TEAM EDWARD, OR TEAM JACOB?

What do you think is going to happen with Bella and Edward in Breaking Dawn? Will Jacob imprint, and if so, who is the destined one? How can Edward change Bella into something that he hates about himself?  
Share your thoughts, favorite quotes, and opinions on Breaking Dawn.  Also, change up what you know from the first 3 books.  What would have happen if Edward wouldn't have left Bella in New Moon? What if Jacob immediately imprinted on Bella in Twilight?

Team Time Talk

Road Trip to LA to meet the amazing 
Cassandra Clare

Driving to LA last week to meet Ms. Clare was a fantastic experience. She talked with us about writing, how she develops plot and sub-plot, and how she plans to finish up her exciting series with City of Glass.  Check out our Rune t-shirts that we made- they are awesome! Cassie also signed our books and gave us chapter one of City of Glass. AMAZING!
********************************
Blog: What book have you selected for your Team Time project? What is your opinion of the plot so far? What are you thinking about doing for your project [movie, tri-fold board, video book report, talk show...]?  Make sure to include book title, author, genre, and characters that you know so far.
