SmartandSnarky

Amerikanah | Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

#octphotochallenge catch-up post. I've never watched Daria 🙀 but I would love to be as #smartandsnarky as Ifemulu. #zeus #nationalcatday @LibrarianRyan

SuperPunkNinja That's my favorite quote from that book! 8y

Liv Moore from iZombie is my #dariawannabe choice. She's #smartandsnarky, with a very Veronica Mars kind of feel. Highly recommend both the books and the tv show. #octphotochallenge

Yamich49 ❤️ her. Haven't read the books yet but I love the show! 8y

Bookzombie I love the show and will have to check out the books! 8y

DeeLew Yessss! 😊👍🏻 8y

LibrarianRyan No idea they were books so now they go in my TBR pile. 🤓 8y

"You want to be careful, Blaise! I saw this young lady perform the most marvelous Bat-Bogey Hex as I was passing her carriage! I wouldn't cross her!"

#GinnyWeasley is #smartandsnarky without words. #octphotochallenge #harrypotter #scaretober

Oh Rachel Morgan. So many of these characters are smart and snarky, but I'm going with Rach. This is especially apparent in Waylaid (the crossover with Peri Reed), because man is she pissed to be summoned. SHE WAS ON A DATE! 😡 haha

LibrarianRyan

josie281 Waylaid was the perfect crossover. Fantastic choice! 8y

Bookworm54 @josie281 I loved it. There was also a sweet short story which I think was on Kim's newsletter or blog that had a slight crossover. That was good. :) 8y

Pride and Prejudice and Zombies | Jane Austen, Seth Grahame-Smith

No idea who Daria is, but fierce warrior Elizabeth Bennet has enough smarts and snark to feel bad about (in distant hindsight) directing it to her love, Mr. Darcy! ~ #Day19 #DariaWannabe #SmartAndSnarky #octphotochallenge #bookphotochallenge ~ @LibrarianRyan

Bookworm54 Ooooo is this good? I just got this from the library for #allhallowsread 8y

bmsddk @Bookworm54 It wasn't something I personally liked, but enough have such that there's a good chance you will too! My biggest problem was that the dramatic license was so overboard it took me out of the story. I'm ALL for ridiculousness in satire, but when done successfully, it still shouldn't be absurd to the point where the story is unbelievable even in context of the absurd. That said, there are still some fun qualities. Hope you enjoy it! 8y

Bookworm54 I will give it a try if nothing else, and I can always just revert to pride and prejudice if the zombies annoy me! I have seen a few of these style of books where a classic has been mixed with something else. Like Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter etc and I never really fancied them, but I decided Halloween was a good time to give it a try! 😋 8y

[DELETED] 2852984487 I adored the movie, but have not yet read the book so I don't know how closely the movie storyline follows the book 8y

bmsddk @Bookworm54 Curious to know what you think of it ☺ 8y

bmsddk @RStorey I read a summary of the movie online, and its plot seems to be very, very different than the book's. Interested in your opinion of the book when you get around to it ☺ That's good to know the movie is worth watching, thanks! 8y

LibrarianRyan I thought the plot was different from the books plus they threw in gratuitous sexual ideas I didn't think it needed. 8y

bmsddk @LibrarianRyan Agreed, those ideas didn't seem to flow in the book, nor did they seem to add anything to the story, in my opinion. 8y

The DUFF: (Designated Ugly Fat Friend) | Kody Keplinger

pick

Bianca Piper is #SmartandSnarky in The DUFF. I watched the movie first (😱) but the book had so much more depth (of course) so she is my pick for #DariaWannabe #OctPhotoChallenge plus... I do love Mae Whitman

LibrarianRyan

Librarygal08 Read book before movie cant believe how much they changed in the movie 8y

Smangela @Librarygirl88 I couldn't either! It's generally my rule to NEVER watch before I read but sometimes I have to acquiesce when I get overruled by my mom and sister. So the movie was cute, but the book was just wayyyyy less fluff! I really liked it :) 8y
