Hey, so did I confuse you by posting a cover story on a Thursday instead of a Monday? It's like, "What? It's Monday? Oh, wait, no! It's Thursday afternoon!" That sense of relief is WAY better than the crushing disappointment that comes Monday mornings, yeah? It's only a few hours until respectable cocktail time (not that we care about respectability around here). What really happened is I got this AMAAAAZING card from FYA Intern and Contributor Mandy, where she photoshopped my teenage face onto Kate Beckinsale's body all snuggled up to Robert Sean Leonard on a movie poster for Much Ado About Nothing, and I remembered the movie was on instant, so I was going to do it for my Netflix Fix today. Let's be honest, that movie is THE BEST. If 10-year-old me can understand Shakespearean dialogue thanks to RSL's incredible hotness, then anyone can. And if seeing sexual chemistry you can cut with a knife won't make you want to cut Kenneth Branagh's testicles off for dicking Emma Thompson around, then nothing will. BUT. Butbutbutbutbut. Netflix dashed my plans! It's not available on streaming anymore! So instead of this gorgeous piece of artistry:
I bring you this one instead:
League of Strays: A Cover Story
Everything in Jennamyn's life was finally looking up. She'd been invited for cheerleading tryouts, she'd ALMOST mastered drying her hair in natural waves, and Cade MacPherson complimented her on her sweater, saying it matched her eyes. It was understandable she wasn't paying close attention walking home through the woods like she should have -- walking home through the woods and straight into a werewolf's arms. Well, technically, he grabbed her from behind, but that doesn't change the fact that she walked right into the pack's trap. See, the pack wasn't a typical pack, but rather the League of Strays -- a modern assortment of werewolves who eschewed the traditional Alpha leader hierarchy in favor of the leaderless decision-making and communication structure made famous by the Occupy Wall Street movement. Before Jennamyn knew what was happening, the League had her tied up in a cave and was debating whether or not to make her one of their own. Would she escape before they bit her? Was she falling a little for the boy with the Robert Pattinson sleepy eyes and too much hair gel? Could she buy her freedom with the hair gel she had in her purse? Or worse, would their endless repetition of each others' every single damn utterance drive her insane before she made a break for freedom?
