"Saying 'I notice you're a nerd' is like saying, 'Hey, I notice that you'd rather be intelligent than be stupid, that you'd rather be thoughtful than be vapid, that you believe that there are things that matter more than the arrest record of Lindsay Lohan. Why is that?' In fact, it seems to me that most contemporary insults are pretty lame. Even 'lame' is kind of lame. Saying 'You're lame' is like saying 'You walk with a limp.' Yeah, whatever, so does 50 Cent, and he's done all right for himself."— John Green

The Seven Days of Secret Diamonds Day 4 - Characters!


In just 4 days, an amazing new book will be hitting the shelves at a bookstore near you! I'm talking about Michelle Madow's newest book, THE SECRET DIAMOND SISTERS.  She has written a fun, sexy, and fast-paced novel about the lavish world of the Vegas elite, and the three everyday sisters caught up in it's web!  I loved the book so much, and I'm very excited to be a part of this amazing 7-day countdown organized by Tiffany at About to Read.  First, don't forget to catch up on all the posts!

To kick off Day 4 of the Seven Days of Secret Diamonds, I'm talking favorite sister!  It is awfully hard to pick between the Diamond sisters because all three are such fun and real characters.  But I did make the choice, and I'm very happy with it!

Don't forget to scroll down for more info on the book, as well as check the link at the end for all the other blogs hosting giveaways.  Keep checking back here through February 25 (Release Day) for more awesome Secret Diamond Sisters posts!


FUN FACT ABOUT THE BOOK:

Michelle has one brother and no sisters, so she got a lot of help from her best friends who have sisters to make the Diamond sisters’ relationships authentic!


The CHARACTER!!

Drumroll please.............It's Courtney!!  Woooooh!  Yes my FAVORITE Diamond sister has to be, hands-down, no contest, Courtney!  She is by far the most relatable character for me.  She is studious and serious and would do anything for her sisters.  Those are all qualities I admire immensely.   The biggest thing I think we have in common (and one of the biggest reasons I like her so much) is her love of reading!  Reading is the best, so whenever a character is really into it I become extremely happy.

I do wish that she took a page out of Peyton's book and became a little more outspoken and assertive. While she doesn't do things just to be popular (unlike Savannah), Courtney thinks things through before she acts.  BUT she does do things she thinks will make other people happy, which is almost ad worse.  If she had a little bit of Peyton's attitude, I think she would be much happier.

So Michelle did this awesome post about The Secret Diamond Sisters, which is awesome and really gives you a sense of how the girls look.  And has I'm all about Courtney, I wanted to share the actress Michelle picked for her: Alexandria Deberry; you may recognize her from the Disney show A.N.T. Farm.  I love this pick because she is so fresh faced, and her wavy blonde hair is Courtney's to a T.  Good choice for sure!




The Secret Diamond Sisters by Michelle Madow


Savannah. Courtney. Peyton. 

The three sisters grew up not knowing their father and not quite catching a break. But it looks like their luck is about to change when they find out the secret identity of their long-lost dad—a billionaire Las Vegas hotel owner who wants them to come live in a gorgeous penthouse hotel suite. Suddenly the Strip's most exclusive clubs are all-access, and with an unlimited credit card each, it should be easier than ever to fit right in. But in a town full of secrets and illusion, fitting in is nothing compared to finding out the truth about their past.
