Does anyone else try and match celebrities to characters in books? I don't like having blank faces and if I try to make them up on my own their faces always change...
Skinny, long blonde hair and pretty, this popped in my head:
Tall, dark, handsome, with great teeth, gave me this:
YUM.
And for Dasha, brunnette, stunningly beautiful, gave me this:
So, who do you see when you picture these characters? And no spoilers, I'm still in the first 100 pages.
Re: book club ladies who read The Bronze Horseman...
I usually don't match celebrities, I prefer the look of the characters in my head. But, I think you hit the nail on the head with Tasha. And yes, YUM Shura (you'll get to that nickname), I mean Ben!
I picture Dasha a bit meatier, but I wouldn't be disappointed to see the girl you posted in a movie.
I HAD to read the second book, too! Many thumbs up!
I'm still in the first hundred too! I think these are good, except I'm gonna make Shura into Ryan Gosling, because I just discovered Ryan Gosling, and Ryan Gosling is so lovely. I know Shura's supposed to be dark, but whatev.
The only thing that's put me off about the book so far is that Tania feels a little too young. If it's gonna get hot and heavy, as people have promised, then I wish she felt more woman and less girl.
I totally get that. I was trying to picture someone as young as her and I just couldn't!
