Second, this interesting article popped up on the "Huffington Post" website yesterday...it seems that Hillary Duff is now going to add YA author to her list of accomplishments with her new YA series beginning with Elixir. I don't know much else about it, except that Simon and Schuster will publish it in October. Now, I don't want to be a downer, but I can't help but wonder and this...and be slightly perturbed by it. Is HD a good writer? Or will her book join ranks with Lauren Conrad's, hitting the New York Times Bestseller list when in reality, it's just not that good? Who knows. Only time will tell.
ETA: There is more about the series of EW's Shelf Life this morning. "Duff’s protagonist is a globe-trotting photojournalist who is attempting to unravel the mystery of her father’s disappearance." And the publisher says it will "[combine] the overpowering allure of a dangerous love triangle with thrilling international adventure.”

Hm, I can't wait to see if it's going to be good or not. Anyhoo, I found this somewhere and it tells a tad bit more if that helps. (:
Clea Raymond is a talented young photojournalist who has spent her entire life in the spotlight as the daughter of a Washington politician and a renowned surgeon. Haunted by the strange appearance of a mysterious young man in her photographs, Clea travels the globe with her best friends, Rayna and Ben, in a race against time to unravel a centuries-old mystery that could unlock the key to her soulmate's true identity and the secret of her father's disappearance--and ultimately save all their lives.
I never would have guessed that HD would publish a book, however, it sounds good and I'll give it a chance :)
Exciting news about Beautiful Darkness. I recently read Beautiful Creatures and I loved it. I can't wait to see the cover and find out more. Thanks for sharing!
Hmmm I'm not sure what to think of HD'S book. I'm not a big fan of celebrity-written novels...
