My dream cast for a film version of Beautiful Dead Would be any of the main actors from the Harry Potter and Twilight films – why not aim for the very biggest stars?! I also wish Johnny Depp was still nineteen years old, so he could play Phoenix! What songs would be on a Beautiful Dead soundtrack? I have an idea that the soundtrack should be made up of songs from the top female vocalist – not mainstream, but more edgy artists like Laura Marling. You can see a whole Beautiful Dead playlist on my Facebook page www.beautifuldead.com Which character do you most relate to in the series? I’m closest in character to Darina in the books, mainly in the way she always feels a bit on `the edge of things, a bit misunderstood, but very focused and determined. I’m not as brave as she is, obviously. If you could invite 5 people to dinner who would you invite? Top of my list for ideal dinner guests are Marilyn Monroe, Shakespeare, Catherine Earnshaw from Wuthering Heights, John Lennon and Atticus Finch from To Kill A Mocking Bird.
