Blair is the main character. She's sweet, strong, beautiful, a good friend and brave. I loved Blair. She and her friends, Andrew, her big brother, Natalie, David and Everett are very close to each other. I enjoyed that this story isn't a typical one, and that's it's complicated. Blair's father and brother died a few time ago. It's the beggining of summer, and she and her friends want to have fun, because when the school is going to begun, Blair will be kinda alone, her friends goining to college.
So...I isn't as safe as everyone thinks because they found a weird coccon, and it's complicated. The thing inside is a sort of alien, and the guys name him "Cicada". Everett fascination for bugs stunned me. He seems, at the beginning, the B-F-F guy type, but, during the book he became hot, beautiful, and you can't fall for him. Natalie is a secondary character. She's okay. David is her boyfriend. David seemed to me quite native, always purposing "Kill the Cicada", etc. Andrew is Blair's brother and he's a kind of guy who seem to be who he's not, trying to be like his father and his brother, Aaron.
In the dark woods, the kids are discovering a sort of alien, as I told, and Everett is taking this alien at his depository. The reseachs for the Cicada's origins continue, and the character's attention is catched by a big-weird building. I enjoyed a lot that the book is full of suspence. Is funny, lovely, antrenant and a quick read. I didn't get bored at all! I loved everything! My favorite character whas Blair, but I loved everyone.
Again, I was stunned by Belle's way of writing. She's so good! And more, as person she's kind and sweet and love to speak with her fans.
"Cicada" is a good book. One of my best reads. I enjoyed more and more the way that the story is disposed, beginning with a antrenant plot, continuing with mystery, and finalizing with a explozive end. So antrenant!
About the love story, she's so sweet! So much drama and true love. I don't know what to say more...just: Cicada is a must to read for everyone! Loved it! Loved it!
This book have from me a : 5/5

One of the biggest joys of writing fiction is getting to
know the characters as they form themselves into personalities that seem real
and almost tangible. Once a writer has gotten to the point that his/her
characters are more than fiction on the page, finding an actor or actress who
could fill their shoes is like searching for treasure. Wanna see who I’d choose to play the roles of
my characters?
Drum roll…….
Blair Reynolds: Amanda
Seyfried
Blair, the main character and narrator of Cicada, is very intelligent. She is the kind of person that observes people and happenings around her and evaluates the situation. She is a thinker, yet also a doer. Above all, Blair is loyal and brave and loves with the ferocity of a lion. Amanda Seyfried would be an excellent choice to fill Blair’s shoes. She resembles Blair in appearance, temperament, and mannerisms a great deal. And her voice is very similar to Blair’s, too!

She resembles Blair in appearance, temperament, and mannerisms a great deal. And her voice is very similar to Blair’s, too!
Andrew (and the memory of Aaron): Zac Efron
Andrew, Blair’s surviving big brother, is one of those souls who is
loved and respected by everyone. He’s got that All-American charismatic appeal,
and he is a genuinely nice guy. Andrew is very protective of his little sister
Blair and their mom. After losing his twin brother Aaron and their father, he
turned to religion to deal with the pain and loss. Zac Efron would be an
excellent actor to fill the part of Andrew, because he’s got that same good-guy
persona and really looks a lot like Andrew’s character.
Everett: Josh Hutcherson
Everett Forster, loved by all–readers and fellow characters alike! He
is probably the most loved character by my readers. And I’m not surprised.
Everett is super-loyal and brilliant! He begins the story as the typical nerd
and ends as a sexy hunk! Not only is Everett the best friend of Blair, but he’s
also her true love. He would go to any lengths to protect her. And he does,
almost to the point of paying the ultimate price. Josh Hutcherson would be a
terrific actor to play the part of Everett.
David: Kellan Lutz
David Hargrave, high school sports star, is Andrew’s best friend and
Natalie’s boyfriend. David is huge, strong, and straight forward. He doesn’t
have a lot to say, but when he says it, he means it. David is handsome, blonde,
with blue eyes. And he’s definitely got Andrew’s back. He helped Andrew get
through the loss of his brother and father. And he loves his girlfriend with
his whole being. Kellan Lutz is a good fit as David. He’s big, strong, and good
looking!
Natalie: Lucy Hale
Natalie is David’s true love. We don’t really know much about Natalie’s
family or even her last name. What we do know is that she wants to be a
kindergarten teacher after she graduates from college. But the most important
thing to Natalie is to marry David and have children. Beautiful Natalie was a
high school cheerleader and homecoming queen. She and Blair were not necessarily
friends in high school, but their friendship grows as the story unfolds. Lucy Hale looks very much like Natalie and would be a very
good actor to fill her part.
Grandpa: Sam Elliot
Grandpa is actually based on my dear father, whom I love and miss
dearly. He is protective of his family…and family is the most important thing
to him in the world. Grandpa is a large animal veterinarian and has a clinic on
his ranch where he has trained Blair to work with animals so that she can take
over the clinic one day. Grandpa has played a huge role in Blair’s and Andrew’s
lives since the loss of their father. Sam Elliot really looks and sounds like
Grandpa. He would be perfect for the part!
Grandma: Gena Rowlands
Grandma is the typical grandmother. She loves her two surviving
grandchildren with all her heart, and she’s very close to her daughter, Blair’s
mom, who is an only child. We don’t know a lot about Grandma, except she likes
to cook and entertain at the ranch. And she’d do anything for her family.
Grandma seems meek and mild. But we might find out there’s a different side to
Grandma before it’s all over with! The lovely Gena Rowlands would be a
wonderful actress to fill the part of Grandma.
Mom: Gillian
AndersonMom owns a bakery called Sprinkles. She works long hours and loves her
children very much. She’s been a single mom since she lost her husband and
lives with a broken heart beating in her chest. Mom has secrets, and to tell
too much more here about Mom would give away spoilers. Gillian Anderson looks
almost identical to Mom. She would be an excellent choice for the part!
Dad (the memory of him): Daniel
Craig
Dad was an explorer and had served in the military during Desert Storm,
before Andrew and Blair were born. Dad loved Mom very much. They were
soul-mates. Daniel Craig is a dead ringer for Dad!
Well, there you are! A list of possible actors and actresses who would
fill the shoes of my characters beautifully!
Thank you so much for having me over for a cappuccino and a chat! It’s been wonderful getting to know you and
your readers! I hope y’all will stop by
any or all of my social networking sites and say “howdy” sometime! I love hearing from readers, and I always
respond. J
Do you like the cast? Me, I do!
