So, Michelle over at Novels On The Run is holding an awesome contest.
Do you love music? Playlists? Can you fit the perfect song to any character or situation?
Michelle asked me, in her interview, if I could list the songs that could describe the characters in THE IMMORTAL RULES. Allie, Kanin, Zeke, Jackal, Sarren, Allie and Zeke's friendship, Allie and Kanin's friendship, and a few others. So, if you're curious as to what those songs are, head on over to her blog and you can listen to them all, as she was kind enough to put them up.
However, she did manage to stump me with one question. Allie and Kanin.
Allison and
Kanin’s Friendship:
Julie: I honestly could not find a good song for Allie and Kanin, though I know there is probably a perfect one out there somewhere. They have such a complex relationship, not really father-daughter, although Kanin is her sire and teaches her everything she needs to know about being a vampire. Possibly their relationship could be classified as mentor-student, but if anyone has the perfect song, I'd love to hear it.
Soooooo, that's where the contest comes in.
Michelle: Now because I stumped Julie on this Q, I thought why not have a giveaway and ask the people. Julie has wonderfully accepted the role of judge and will choose 2 winners for this question. What song best represents Allison and Kanin’s friendship? Keep reading this interview then enter and Julie may choose you? I think she is rather keen to hear what you all think?
I am! If you could find the perfect song for Kanin/Allie, I would love to hear it. Like it says above, I'll be picking two winners for this contest. Since this is on an Aussie blog tour, Michele's contest is for Australian and international followers only, BUT I will add my own contest here and make it for U.S. and Canada residents.
So, if you are an Aussie or an international follower, head on over to Novels On The Run, listen to the songs, and enter the contest for a paperback copy of THE IMMORTAL RULES.
If you are a U.S./Canada resident, leave your answer in the comments below. The prize will be a signed hardback of THE IMMORTAL RULES. Remember, the contest question is:
"What is the perfect song for the relationship between Allie and Kanin in The Immortal Rules?"
Contest will run until June 7th. Good luck!
-Julie
Dang it! I live in Canada! Oh Julie, T_T!
ReplyDeleteHey Angelica! I updated it so now it includes Canada. :)
DeleteThank you Julie! You are my official favorite author! : )
DeleteHmm I am good in finding fitting songs but I live in Germany and I didn't read The Immortal Rules yet because it isn't out in my language yet. :(
ReplyDeleteI am in the U.S.
ReplyDelete"Winter"
Snow can wait
I forgot my mittens
Wipe my nose
Get my new boots on
I get a little warm in my heart
When I think of winter
I put my hand in my father's glove
I run off
Where the drifts get deeper
Sleeping beauty trips me with a frown
I hear a voice
"Your must learn to stand up for yourself
Cause I can't always be around"
He says
When you gonna make up your mind
When you gonna love you as much as I do
When you gonna make up your mind
Cause things are gonna change so fast
All the white horses are still in bed
I tell you that I'll always want you near
You say that things change my dear
Boys get discovered as winter melts
Flowers competing for the sun
Years go by and I'm here still waiting Withering where some snowman was
Mirror mirror where's the crystal palace
But I only can see myself
Skating around the truth who I am
But I know dad the ice is getting thin
When you gonna make up your mind
When you gonna love you as much as I do
When you gonna make up your mind
Cause things are gonna change so fast
All the white horses are still in bed
I tell you that I'll always want you near
You say that things change my dear
Hair is grey
And the fires are burning
So many dreams
On the shelf
You say I wanted you to be proud of me
I always wanted that myself
He says
When you gonna make up your mind
When you gonna love you as much as I do
When you gonna make up your mind
Cause things are gonna change so fast
All the white horses have gone ahead
I tell you that I'll always want you near
You say that things change
My dear
Tori Amos
I think this is the perfect song! Junior Boys - Teach Me How to Fight. It's very atmospheric and haunting, which also fits the vibe. Here are the lyrics:
ReplyDeleteThere's some things I forget,
And if it's wrong, I'll keep it in check,
'Cause what could I do?
And if we go out tonight,
Would there be blood on your shirt?
And would it taste like bitter shit?
'Cause I don't know...
Can you teach me how to fight?
Show me what it's like to give back pain.
Show me how you fight, throw him down.
There are times in the past,
If I had the nerve I couldn't make it last.
Courage wasted in the night.
And is it really so hard?
Tell your body to forget the words,
Pushing you to run.
'Cause I don't know...
Can you teach me how to fight?
Show me what it's like to give back pain.
Show me how you fight, throw him down.
Help I'm Alive - Metric.

ReplyDeleteI'm not sure about Allie and Kannin, but I think you should have done one for the group looking for eden. If you did that Paradise by coldplay would have been a good one.
ReplyDeleteI really think Lonely Boy by the Black Keys. I know it may sound dumb but I always think of Kanin (lonely boy) and then for the part "I got a love that keeps me going) reminds me of Allie. Its a really great song just for the sake of music too! :)

I think this song is perfect: 'The Heart Of Everything' by Within Temptation! Honestly, a whole LOT of Within Temptation seemed to have the right kind of tone. But 'The Heart Of Everything' seemed best to me.
ReplyDeleteHere is the link to the song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWDuAReDQYA
And the lyrics:
"The Heart Of Everything"
For the pain and the sorrow caused by my mistakes
Won't repent to a mortal whom is all to blame
Now I know I won't make it
There will be a time we'll get back our freedom
They can't break what's inside
I'll face it 'cause it's the heart of everything
Open up your eyes
Save yourself from fading away now, don't let it go
Open up your eyes
See what you've become, don't sacrifice
It's truly the heart of everything
Stay with me now I'm facing my last solemn hour
Very soon I'll embrace you on the other side
Hear the crowd in the distance, screaming out my faith
Now their voices are fading, I can feel no more pain
I'll face it 'cause it's the heart of everything
Open up your eyes
Save yourself from fading away now, don't let it go
Open up your eyes
See what you've become, don't sacrifice
It's truly the heart of everything
Open up your eyes
Open up your eyes
Open up your eyes
Save yourself from fading away now, don't let it go
Open up your eyes
See what you've become, don't sacrifice
It's truly the heart of everything

Wow, julie, totally keen on this! But...I'm going to have to spend a little more time looking for the perfect song so I'll be bak with an amazing song! Just wanted to say that the immort rules is the best book I've read for a really really long time!
ReplyDeleteI had to pick an instrumental song: "Keep it in the Family" by Hybrid. It sounds haunting and futuristic and fits the image of the fringes of a vampire city. I can see it playing in the background while Kanin and Allie train together.
ReplyDeletehttp://youtu.be/dFtzTb8uhdI
I think plans and reveries by black gold is perfect for describing from when he changed her to when he helps her overcome bloodlust.
ReplyDeleteYou can listen to it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ITZ77usgmA
Or here are the lyrics:
Can you breathe at all?
Do you feel my hand?
Can you hear me?
Open up your eyes
Hold your head up high
Can you feel me?
Now don't fake or lie
Look me in the eyes
Are you with me?
Offer up your hand
Will you try to stand
And come with me?
You're sore and bitter
Worn and tattered on your hands
All your plans and all your reveries
Stagger on
While your tin gods are left behind
Now you're bleary eyed
And you're hypnotized
Are you bleeding?
Feel the burning cold
Not what you were told
Now you're hazy
Making out their shapes
Focus on their frames
Can you hear them?
Now you're on your feet
Floating in a sea
Pins and needles
You're sore and bitter
Worn and tattered on your hands
All your plans and all your reveries
Stagger on
While your tin gods are left behind
All your plans and all your reveries
Stagger on and stagger on
While your tin gods are left behind
Far behind
I want more (I want more)
Give me more (Give me more)
I want the burn and bliss again (Burn and bliss again)
I want more (I want more)
Give me more (Give me more)
I want the burn and bliss again (Burn and bliss again, again, again)
I want more (I want more)
Give me more (Give me more)
I want the burn and bliss again (Again, again, again)
All your plans and all your reveries
Stagger on
While your tin gods are left behind
All your plans and all your reveries
Stagger on and stagger on
While your tin gods are left behind
Far behind
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Am I the only one who thinks something more might be going on between Allie and Kanin? ;3 I loved Zeke's character and their relationship but I have a feeling the vampire thing is gonna get in the way a lot. :( I just get the feeling Allie is gonna have one of those infamous love triangles. And not the normal one where you know the girl is gonna end up with that guy no matter what the other does (Twilight). Maybe I'm just crazy -_- Love your books, Julie! Keep writing!
ReplyDeleteYou're not the only one!
ReplyDeleteHonestly, but I still loved the book--it was awesome, I thought Kanin and Allie would've been better as a couple. Their relationship, to me at least, is less platonic and more fierce and fiery. It has that hot-ness of an angst character(Kanin) and kickass --or badass, whichever is to your tastes-- Allie. Together, I feel that they would both be the most badass couple and rank among the top of my top couples of all time. I mean, Zeke's character is cute, sweet, and nice, but with Ash and Meghan, I feel that your angsty, hot, forbidden type of relationships are best. You could be trying out a new type of couples, but Julie--I love you, really I do--I feel that your bittersweet, badass, forbidden relationships are the better of the two.
Prime example: Ash and Meghan.
But, since this is supposed to be a song selection, i would pick the song: Beyond--Emotional Piano. It's by Matthew Mayer and I had constantly listened to this as I was reading Blood of Eden. It had corresponded amazingly to Kanin + Allie. The dynamics, rhythm, and notes kept me at the edge of the seat and i had always loved it--and still love it.
Of course, there's also another song i love for this beautiful piece for this amazing book.
How about this: Where Have You Been by Rihanna--though it would probably fit a more romantic relationship.
Eh.
If not, how about these?
Witin Temptation: Memories, All I Need, and/or Stand My Ground.
Azu: For You
Gackt: Vanilla( a bit naughty? -eye wiggle-
Yamai: Akahitoha
Usher: Scream, There Goes My Baby, and/or Here I Stand
Usa or Len: Sadistic Vampire
Bruno Mars: Count On Me
Miku: Can't I Even Dream
Kaito and Miku's: Canterella
David Guetta feat Crystal Nicole: I'm a Machine
Super Junior: Opera
Lady Gaga: Scheise, Highway Unicorn, Paper Gangsta?(not so sure now)
Heck, how about GD and Top: BABY GOOD NIGHT
BIGBANG: Blue? Lies? Haru Haru!?!?
As of now, I think everyone can see that I'm getting a little(coughcough) desperate now.
Marron 5 feat Wiz Khalifa: Payphone
I'm at my wit's end trying to win this prize--which i really wish and hope I will.
I hope that maybe you'll find a pick among this crazily strewn list.
Love, Wishes, and A Lot've Hope,
Emily

Yes!! Yes!! Come on over to www.novelsontherun.blogspot.com and have even MORE chances to win:D My giveaway is as Julie says, I have one paperback for Aussie only ( Publisher supplying ) and one paperback for anybody!! Book Depository posts to. I am putting that one up as I did not want INTL to miss out. I shall link Julie's page to my giveaway so more chances for everyone...accept Aussies ..as well...we are in Australia..hehe!!
ReplyDeleteI LOVEEEE music and I am so keen to see what everybody chooses!! It's my fave Q to ask in interviews I get absolutely fascinated by what authors choose.
Michelle
I don't think the whole "couple" thing with Allie and Kanin would work out because it seems to me that whoever sires you is sort of related as is everyone else they sire...
ReplyDeletehmmm how many times can we enter? or i should ask, how many songs?
ReplyDeleteThank you, yet again, for another contest in which we might win AN AWESOME AMAZING BOOK! :D
ReplyDeleteThe song I think would fit them perfectly is...
Welcome To The Family- by Avenged Sevenfold
:D
I think it fits them perfectly. I can't fit all of the lyrics in here (It's a pretty long song), but I will put in a few.
~Hey kid
Do I have your attention?
I know the way you've been livin'
Life so wreckless, tragedy endless
Welcome to the family
Hey (hey)
There's somethin' missin'
Only time will alter your vision
Never in question, lethal injection
Welcome to the family~
and some more
~Hey
I have to question,
What's with the violent aggression?
Details blurry, lost him too early
Welcome to the family
Hey
Why won't you listen?
Can't help the people you're missing
It's been done, a casualty re-run
Welcome to the family~
Hope you like.

How about:
Song: "Every Road" by The Maine
Lyrics:
Oh it’s safe to say I knew it, yeah I knew it all along
Asking the same questions, singing the same songs
I’ve been gone for a while, been traveling along
Searching for a new life when I already had my own
So walk back home on every road
On every road we cross alone
We’re thinking of those we left back home
So follow the line and I’ll be your guide
Cause we’re the luck ones
On every road
Yeah it’s safe to say I knew that all the selfish things I’d do
Would eventually come creeping back around
Oh way back when you called me young, said we’re innocent and dumb
I knew that you’d come creeping back around again
So walk back home on every road
On every road we cross alone
We’re thinking of those we left back home
So follow the line and I’ll be your guide
Cause we’re the lucky ones
On every road
Huh
So walk back home on every road
On every road we cross alone
We’re thinking of those we left back home
So follow the line and I’ll be your guide
Cause we’re the luck ones
Yeahyeahyeahyeahyeahyeah
So walk back home on every road
On every road we cross alone
We’re thinking of those we left back home
So follow the line and I’ll be your guide
Cause we’re the luck ones (So lucky baby)
So walk back home on every road
On every road we cross alone
We’re thinking of those we left back home
So follow the line and I’ll be your guide
Cause we’re the luck ones
On every road
Poison - Alice Cooper
ReplyDeleteYour cruel device
your blood, like ice
One look, could kill
My pain, your thrill
I want to love you but I better not touch (don?t touch)
I want to hold you, but my senses tell me to stop
I want to kiss you but I want it too much (too much)
I want to taste you but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison, running through my veins
Poison
I don't want to break these chains
Your mouth, so hot
Your web, I'm caught
Your skin, so wet
Black lace, on sweat
I hear you calling and it's needles and pins (and pins)
I want to hurt you just to hear you screaming my name
Don't want to touch you but you're under my skin (deep in)
I want to taste you but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison, running through my veins
Poison
I don't want to break these chains
Poison...
(guitar solo)
One look, could kill
My pain, your thrill
I want to love you but I better not touch (don?t touch)
I want to hold you, but my senses tell me to stop
I want to kiss you but I want it too much (to much)
I want to taste you but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison, running through my veins
Poison
I don't want to break these chains
Poison (Poi-son)
I want to love you but I better not touch (don?t touch)
I want to hold you, but my senses tell me to stop
I want to kiss you but I want it too much (too much)
I want to taste you but your lips are venomous poison
Yeah
Well I don't want to break these chains
Poison
Runnin' deep inside my veins
Burnin' deep inside my brain
Poison
And I don't want to break these chains

Hmm, this is a hard one. I couldn't really think of anything other than 'Bring Me to Life' by Evanescence.
ReplyDeleteLyrics:
How can you see into my eyes like open doors?
Leading you down into my core where I’ve become so numb
Without a soul my spirit's sleeping somewhere cold
until you find it there and lead it back home
(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can’t wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
bid my blood to run
(I can’t wake up)
before I come undone
(Save me)
save me from the nothing I’ve become
now that I know what I’m without
you can't just leave me
breathe into me and make me real
bring me to life
(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can’t wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
bid my blood to run
(I can’t wake up)
before I come undone
(Save me)
save me from the nothing I’ve become
Bring me to life
(I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside)
Bring me to life
frozen inside without your touch
Without your love, darling
only you are the life among the dead
all this time I can't believe I couldn't see
kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
I’ve been sleeping a thousand years it seems
got to open my eyes to everything
Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul
don't let me die here
there must be something more
bring me to life
(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can’t wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
bid my blood to run
(I can’t wake up)
before I come undone
(Save me)
save me from the nothing I’ve become
(Bring me to life)
I’ve been living a lie, there’s nothing inside
(Bring me to life)
Thanks for including Canada Julie!:)
OMG that's exactly the song I was thinking of!!!
DeleteP.S. TEAM PUCK FOREVER!!!!
Would it be O.K. if I found a song that describes Kanin, not Kanin and Allie's relationship?
ReplyDeleteSafe & Sound by Taylor Swift ft. Civil Wars
ReplyDeleteI remember tears streaming down your face
When I said, "I'll never let you go"
When all those shadows almost killed your light
I remember you said, "Don't leave me here alone"
But all that's dead and gone and passed tonight
Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound
Don't you dare look out your window darling
Everything's on fire
The war outside our door keeps raging on
Hold on to this lullaby
Even when the music's gone
Gone
Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
La La (La La)
La La (La La)
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
La La (La La)
Just close your eyes
You'll be alright
Come morning light,
You and I'll be safe and sound...
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh oh oh. [x7]
I haven't read the book, so I don't really know these characters. But for some reason Storm by Lifehouse popped into my head after reading the description of Allison and Kanin's relationship.
ReplyDeleteHere's a link to the song:
http://youtu.be/Dn7pWm4i0ZU
"All That I'm Living For" - Evanescence
ReplyDeleteAll that I'm living for,
All that I'm dying for,
All that I can't ignore alone at night.
I can feel the night beginning.
Separate me from the living.
Understanding me,
After all I've seen.
Piecing every thought together,
Find the words to make me better.
If I only knew how to pull myself apart.
All that I'm living for,
All that I'm dying for,
All that I can't ignore alone at night.
All that I'm wanted for,
Although I wanted more.
Lock the last open door, my ghosts are gaining on me.
I believe that dreams are sacred.
Take my darkest fears and play them
Like a lullaby,
Like a reason why,
Like a play of my obsessions,
Make me understand the lesson,
So I'll find myself,
So I won't be lost again.
All that I'm living for,
All that I'm dying for,
All that I can't ignore alone at night.
All that I'm wanted for,
Although I wanted more.
Lock the last open door, my ghosts are gaining on me.
Guess I thought I'd have to change the world to make you see me,
To be the one.
I could have run forever,
But how far would I have come
Without mourning your love?
All that I'm living for,
All that I'm dying for,
All that I can't ignore alone at night.
All that I'm wanted for,
Although I wanted more.
Lock the last open door, my ghosts are gaining on me.
Should it hurt to love you?
Should I feel like I do?
Should I lock the last open door,
My ghosts are gaining on me.
Skillet is absolutly one of my all time favorite bands so of course have found a couple songs that i just love and is perfect for this contest and they are Awake and Alive, and Never Surrender.
ReplyDelete~Anna(artsytiger@hotmail.com)
Im reading Immortal Rules right now and I love it!!!!! Julie u did an amazing job as usual l. I personally think that Natural Born Killer by Avenged Sevenfold would be a good song. It describes how Kanin tells Allie your a vampire and will kill and how Allie doesn't want to.
ReplyDelete-Alina
alinakhan2904@gmail.com
Eyes Open by Taylor Swift. I think this song relates to the training period with Allie and Kanin. Kanin teaches Allie how to be careful and cautious of her surroundings and that she can not go back to her old life. That everyone will see and deal with her as a monster.
ReplyDeleteI just finished Immortal Rules! Oh my goodness! I loved it! Anyways I think Magenta by Nano defines Allie's and Kanin's relationship to me.( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IGoC_qvx7Cs&feature=plcp )
ReplyDeleteThis song reminds me of how Allie remembers Kanin's lessons, and how he supports her when she first becomes a vampire. This song also reminds me of how Allie wants to help with the nightmares...
Lol. I also imagined Allie had a voice like Nano, she's one of my absolute favorite singers...
Cate
Hi there Julie! My song choice for the relationship between Allie and Kanin is *My Immortal by Evanescence*. I chose this song because, well one, the tital of the song. My Immortal as in how Allie is now an immmortal vampire and how Kanin is also an immortal. The lyrics spoke out to me because it kind of shows what Kanin might have been thinking.. Fighting for her and teaching her and showing her how to survive as a vampire. The one verse in this song spoke out to me and that was -Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams-. This verse reminded me of when Allie was seeing through Kanins eyes in her dreams. It was like when she was seeing his face and it was a nightmare ruining her her dreams. Also, these lyrics to me can be spoken from Allie or Kanin's perspective. It kind of goes off and on, or back and forth, between them. Anyways this is my choice for the relationship between them. :)
ReplyDeleteThe song can be found here:

Thanks for all the awesome contests and amazing books! :)
Hi, I'd just like to start off with a thanks for doing all these contests, they're really fun :D
ReplyDeleteand also, I'd like to say I didn't read the book (YET). I meant to read it from my school library but the person who took it out held it for so long, now i can't take any books out because of school ending soon >:( grr.
But I'd still like to suggest some songs based on the description you gave me, some people already suggested "Eyes Open" and "Safe and Sound" though
So I will suggest more songs
(in the next post)
Try - Nelly Furtado
ReplyDeleteAll I know
Is everything is not as it's sold
but the more I grow the less I know
And I have lived so many lives
Though I'm not old
And the more I see, the less I grow
The fewer the seeds the more I sow
(Chorus)
Then I see you standing there
Wanting more from me
And all I can do is try
Then I see you standing there
Wanting more from me
And all I can do is try
I wish I hadn't seen all of the realness
And all the real people are really not real at all
The more I learn, the more I learn
The more I cry, the more I cry
As I say goodbye to the way of life
I thought I had designed for me
(Chorus)
Maybe "Heavy Rope" by LIGHTS?
There's this japanese song (I hope you don't mind foreign music) called "Futatsu no Kodou to Akai Tsumi" by ON/OFF
I'll just give you the translation ;)
In this red, red, red
Dream dream shaking
We cant be separated
Already, every time when I'm stifled to death after I give up again and again
My emotions that have no place to go wake me up
Your unblemished smile knows it's an existence
So distant that its cruel
Even though the incurable wound only eats away at my heart
Even now I cant completely hold back my thoughts that dwell within the darkness
(Chorus)
Shaking in red, in red, in red
To the edge of the dream, of the dream
We met; destiny begins to turn
A secret that no one, no one knows about
I fall, I fall, I fall
I certainly cant return anymore, even if I carve out my my sins
While I was walking in the abyss of loneliness, I was saved
By realistic eyes that never change
But a shadow born as the light is bright
Deeply and pronouncedly creeps up to me
The two heartbeats are exactly like mirrors facing each other
The pains are similar but different & continue infinitely
Burning in red, in red, in red
Erasing everything, everything
An unfulfilled illusion begins to move
Strongly, strongly
Overcoming, overcoming, overcoming the fleeting night
I certainly cant escape, even if I drown in my sins
(Chorus)
"I'm not the one" by 3OH!3
You're way too young to be broken.
You're way too young to fall apart.
You're way too young to play these games,
But you better start,
But you better start.
This is when it starts,
From the beating of your heart
Till the streetlamps talk to you.
Jumping off of the edge,
Or asleep in your head,
Everything's turning dark to you.
I went to pick up the parts,
The doctor's hiding the charts,
He won't let me see this side of you.
It's on the tip of my tongue,
You know you're way too young
To have someone lie to you.
(Chorus)
I'm not the one, I'm not the one who wants to hurt you.
I'm not the one, I'm not the one who wants to hurt you.
You'd better find somebody else and get a hold of yourself.
I'm not the one, I'm not the one who wants to hurt you.
You're way too young to be broken.
You're way too young to fall apart.
You're way too young to play these games,
But you'd better start,
But you'd better start.
It was the second I lit
Your first cigarette,
I forget who you used to be.
And I bit my lip
The second you sipped
The poison that was mixed for me.
(Chorus)
Drink the poison lightly,
'Cause there are deeper and darker things than you.
I know 'cause I've been there too.
I know it might seem frightening
To have the world fall apart right under your shoes.
Trust me,
You'll make it through.
(Chorus)
"Lights" by Ellie Goulding?
haha sorry for super long post.
Thanks again!
Hi!! First I have to say, I just LOVED your book!! I finished it in one day, but as you can image, people were not happy... I paid attention to NO ONE. lol. The relationship between Allison and Kanin is thought-provoking. Just one word (or song) wouldn't be able to describe it. So, this contest was challenging, but in a good way :) It's the summer after all, so can't let that brain turn to mush. lol. When I think of Allie and Kanin, the song that comes to mind is Burn it Down by Linkin Park. I just love it and I hope you do too! Thanks :D Sarah
