    Introducing Luke Carlton - ex-Special Boat Service commando, and now under contract to MI6 for some...

So, yeah, a lot less of the stuff that kids this age shouldn't really be getting up to. They're now 16 and the bluebloods met their match in Marnye this year. She took them down one by one, hitting them where it hurts the most and I was cheering her on almost every time. I was feeling the same things as her. Did this person need even more pain after the revenge she'd just meted out? It was so complicated at times. Like Marnye, I'm torn by all the guys now, too. They all seem into her but how does she choose? They've all hurt her in one way or another (apart from our Prince) and all feel bad about it.

I am getting hooked on this series and will now have to wait for book 3 and 4 to come out to see what ends up happening with this group of characters. All of their personal lives are complicated in some way so I hope the author gives them all a way to make everything right.

"It's just fucking mental! I saw it in the cinema at the time and I remember getting up to leave and then the hand coming out of the grave! So great. It goes back to what I was saying about a lot of teen films being about the different kid, who stands apart from their peers. That always resonated with me. I wasn't unpopular as a teenager, I was fine. I wasn't bullied or anything, but I did stand apart from my school mates, because I didn't want to go along with the peer culture in every single sense. I didn't like people telling me what to do, I was too independent. So films about outsiders are always tops in my book. And of course poor old Carrie is a text book example of evangelistic religiosity turning sour. It's the most amazing revenge film ever. I interviewed Kurt Cobain and he said 'I'm the guy that would be most likely to kill everyone at a high school dance' and I said, 'you mean like Carrie?' He really liked that."
