He also mentioned that Maggie has read the script. You can follow him @nickpustay on twitter.

IMDB is now reporting that the new release date for the shiver movie is 2014. Is this true? We don’t know. However, when it comes to the release date this is what Maggie Stiefvater has to say:

No, it does not have a release date (everything you see online to the contrary is lies and damn lies).

This week I’m suggesting Jeff Bridges for the role of Beck. Thoughts?

Will Shiver be a movie? What’s going on with the movie? Can I be in the movie!? Don’t make the movie! Do make the movie! Please can Chase Crawford play Cole/ Sam/ Beck/ Grace?
I get asked about the movie. A lot. A lot a lot. Its film rights were optioned shortly after it came out by Warner Brothers/ Unique Features. Optioning means that they’re looking at assembling all of the movie parts, but it’s all very tenuous and at any time it can perish. No, it does not have a release date (everything you see online to the contrary is lies and damn lies). No, it does not have a trailer (although some fans have very fine editing skills on YouTube). No, they are not casting. And no, I have no say in any of the previously mentioned things, so all of the headshots I keep getting sent? Deleted. I can’t do anything with them. I get asked a lot if there are new developments. Trust me, if there were new developments, I’d be howling them from the rooftops. And by rooftops, I mean Twitter.

We’ve been getting asked a lot lately too. As soon as we hear anything we’ll post it. That’s why we’re here.

Tricks by Ellen Hopkins

“When all choice is taken from you, life becomes a game of survival.”

Five teenagers from different parts of the country. Three girls. Two guys. Four straight. One gay. Some rich. Some poor. Some from great families. Some with no one at all. All living their lives as best they can, but all searching…for freedom, safety, community, family, love. What they don’t expect, though, is all that can happen when those powerful little words “I love you” are said for all the wrong reasons.

Five moving stories remain separate at first, then interweave to tell a larger, powerful story — a story about making choices, taking leaps of faith, falling down, and growing up. A story about kids figuring out what sex and love are all about, at all costs, while asking themselves, “Can I ever feel okay about myself?”

This week I’m suggesting Melanie Laurent for the role of Isabel. What do you guys think?

What a cool picture by PurinBicchi! I love how the quote ties in with the pic. What do you guys think?
