Today I have the amazing Anna Carey, author of the Eve trilogy, on the blog! Stick around until the end of the guest post for the chance to win both books in the trilogy!
I just finished Rise, the third and final book in The Eve Trilogy. The greatest thing about ending one series and starting another is the time you have to relax, reflect, and take in all the culture you’ve missed while you’ve been writing away. Here are a few of my favorite books, movies, and music. Some are old favorites, others I’ve just discovered. All of them have served to inspire.
Books
I can’t get enough survival stories. I’m a recovering I Shouldn’t be Alive addict, and as a teen I devoured books like Hatchet and Lord of the Flies. My more recent favorites are Life of Pi and Wild. There are so many rich, vivid descriptions in Life of Pi—the book has stuck with me in the seven or so years since I read it. I’m halfway through Wild, about a young woman hiking the Pacific Crest trail, and really enjoying it. She leaves for the trail after the death of her mother. Those passages describing her loss, and how her marriage came undone afterwards, are some of the most moving I’ve read.
Movies
I recently went to see The Hunger Games and The Avengers. I loved every minute of The Hunger Games. I was literally giddy watching all the added scenes with the Gamemakers creating the show. It was one of those rare instances where I enjoyed the movie as much as I did the book (in different ways, but still). The Avengers was another fun one…did anyone else tear up towards the end? Tony Stark! Noooooo!
TV show
I’m obsessed with Mad Men. It’s rare to have a main character so impossible to predict. What will Don Draper do next? We’re never quite sure. I was also a huge Alias fan—no one does cliffhangers better. If you wanted to be Sydney Bristow too, you may want to check out Kyle XY. The show ran a few years ago for just three seasons—but those seasons (especially the first one) are fantastic. It has Alias-like mystery, adventure, and cliffhangers, but it follows kids in high school.
Song
I’ve been listening to Walking on a Dream by Empire of the Sun for a few years now, and it still hasn’t gotten old. I can always count on it to rev me up (and provide the perfect soundtrack for car dancing). Sia’s Breathe Me is awesome for those more angsty moments. It’s the modern “Everybody Hurts”.
Album
Lately The Big Black and Blue and The Lion’s Roar by First Aid Kit are always on. To put it simply, I just love their sound. The Swedish folk band consists of two sisters. They have the clearest, sweetest voices. I could listen to them all day long (and sometimes do).
What are your recent favorites? Is there anything I MUST check out before I disappear again into the ol’ writing cave?
And now, for the giveaway! Want to win copies of Eve, Once, and a $10 iTunes card? Just leave a comment sharing one of your favorites in each category and click that you did it in the Rafflecopter form. Sorry all you international fans but this one is US only!
Love the Hunger Games in the same way Anna did…definitely different than the book, but still loved it! Thanks for the giveaway!
Erin @ Let’s Evaluate
I also love Sia! Great artist! I’ve heard a lot of great things about Mad Men, I should check it out soon. Thanks for the giveaway!
Okay, I’m going to hafta really, kinda, sorta work my brain for this one.
Hmm, favorite book is…it’s gonna have to be a tie between Wings of the Wicked and Catching Jordan <333 Love ’em like cray!
My favorite movie that I could always watch is…The Last of the Mohicans. I’m not really sure why. I think it’s the soundtrack for that movie that sold me REAL hard!
Favorite tv show, that one’s easy. The one show that I absolutely cannot miss when it comes on every week is The Vampire Diaries. It’s got everything and for sure, a whole lot of smexy eye-candy! 😉
Song!? You’ve gotta be kidding me! I love so many so hard! But…the one (or few) that I’ve been stuck on forever is Ed Sheeran’s Give Me Love…and a whole bunch of his songs! I’m sooooo obsessed with him; it’s almost sorta scary!
And my favorite album would hafta be The Maine’s Can’t Stop Won’t Stop. They’re my most favorite band in the world and that’s the album when I first found out about them so…I’m going and sticking with that one!
Thanks so much for the giveaway!

This is such a fun way to enter for a giveaway! Of course, I can’t pick ONE favorite, but I can name a few! 🙂 Lol.
Books: Oh geez, this is going to be the hardest category. To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee, Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison, Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher, The Hunger Games, Harry Potter…and that’s just the tip of the iceberg!
Movies: I also recently saw The Avengers and loved it. Other contenders? Phantom of the Opera, V for Vendetta, Stardust, The Boondock Saints…
TV Shows: Doctor Who, Buffy, Veronica Mars, Roswell, Bones, Firefly, Torchwood…I’ll stop there.
Songs: Sia’s Breathe Me is TOTALLY on my list! Also, Skinny Love by Birdy, A Drop in the Ocean by Ron Pope, Losing Your Memory by Ryan Adams, Born to Die by Lana del Rey, Blinding by Florence + the Machine…I could go on forever!
Album: This one is the easiest. Though I listen to a ton of music, picking out just a few of my favorite albums is relatively simple. Lungs and Ceremonials by Florence + the Machine, Kaleidescope Heart by Sara Bareilles, and Sigh No More by Mumford and Sons would probably be my top four, though not in order.
WOW! Now that I’ve vomited my favorites all over you blog, I wanted to say thanks for the giveaway and the interview! 🙂
Favorite book? Wow, that’s a hard one. Not my favorite, but I’m in middle of Fahrenheit 451 and I love it. I’m not usually one for classics, but Ray Bradbury is amazing.
I haven’t seen many movies lately. I think the most recent was The Hunger Games, which was amazing. I definitely agree with Anna. But Sherlock is also really epic, and those are super-long TV episodes, so they’re like movies, right?
TV Show–again, I don’t watch much TV, but I’m obsessed with Merlin, and awkward. is back on, which makes me really happy.
You can’t expect me to pick one song. I have so many favorites. One that I love is Vox Populi from 30 Seconds to Mars’s This Is War. I’m not into pop so much.
Album is also really tough. But I love the entire layout and everything about (hey, I’m a poet and I didn’t even realize) Vices and Virtues by Panic! at the Disco.
Thanks so much for the giveaway! That was actually kind of fun to list. =D

Thanks so much!
There are so many books that I love and enjoy, but my latest would have to be Legend by Marie Lu. Cassandra Clare’s novels are also amazing as well.
I don’t particularly watch movies often. I find them rather long and tedious at times. However, The Avengers was amazing. I still hold a long love for Titanic as well.
TV shows are also avoided by me. Once in a while, I do watch some mystery dramas like NCIS or CSI. I find them a bit too repetitive though, so I watch them infrequently. The Big Bang Theory is amazing though.
A song that I can’t stop listening to would have to be Uncharted by Sara Bareilles.
Paramore’s albums are all amazingly strong and wonderful to listen to.
I have soo many recent favorites but i guess i would have to say that Five Favors of Dumb by Antony Jon and The selection by Kiera cass are my new favorites.

I LOVED the hunger games as well. And I totally remember that tv show Kyle XY that was on ABCfamily!! I LOVED that show, Kyle was a hottie!
Dang picking my favorites is always hard. I’ll try.
Books: It’s hard to pick a favorite because I like almost every book I read. My most recent favorite would have to be The Fault in Our Stars by John Green. I read it back in April and it stuck with me. I’m a sucker for books that make mr cry. My favorite series is either the Mortal Instruments or Tigers Curse. And my favorite type of book is anything with romance 🙂
Tv: Veronica Mars. Friday Night Lights. The Vampire Diaries. Pretty Little Liars. The Lying Game. Once Upon a Time.
Movies: My favorite movie of all time is Titanic. I don’t know why but I could watch that movie a million times (and I have). I love that it’s a twist on something that actually happened. Other than that I love all the nerdy series of movies. Twilight. Harry Potter. The Pirates of the Carribean. Star Wars. The Lord of the Rings. All Disney/Pixar movies. Oh and the Hilary Duff Cinderella Story.
Song: That’s hard. If I had to choose Like We Used To by A Rocket to the Moon.
Album: Speak Now by Taylor Swift I guess.
Book: Looking for Alaska by John Green will always be my favorite book!
