12th Diamond: The Secret Circle


Yes, the author of the books of Secret Circle and The Vampire Diaries is the same...L.J.SMITH
Though I have to admit, she's pretty awesome if her books were made into TV series. 
Ok, let's start ranting about this "discontinued" TV series.

First of all, even though it's discontinued, doesn't mean that it's not awesome.
It's a slow paced series, but the idea is worth watching. Plus....the cast is not bad. 
At least we get to see Thomas Dekker around again, though I have to admit, those lashes are so thick and long, mascara much?? Well, Phoebe Thomkins (or sumthin, I forgot her name) played as Faye Chamberlain here, but good news is, she will be playing in The Vampire Diaries Season 4 later. That's great!!

And here comes the rants. It's about a girl (just how many movies is about a girl?!) who at first didn't knew of her witch powers but later finds a group of teens who happen to be witches. Then there's a guy, and you know what's next. At the end they found out that her father is the bad guy (similar to Mortal Instruments??) and they went on knowing that she has siblings. And then the series ended.......and there are no continuation....WTH!?!?!?!?!

I guess if you need something to watch once in a while then this series would be okay, but if I were to say my own opinion, it's not that good. I personally choose Vampire Diaries over this series, but since it's special in its way, I decided to blog about it here.

As for the music, I can't really remember most of it. I don't think they use a lot of memorable musics, or maybe I'm the one who forgets them :P anyways, it is discontinued and it's such a loss really....


The one thing that kept me watching this series is the relationship between Cassie and Adam. At first, Adam is dating Diana, who is really pretty by the way. Because of that, they can't date each other. Even though it's already obvious that they have feelings for each other. In the scene above particularly, it was beautiful. One thing I salute are the special effects used in the movie. Not bad at all! Back to Cassie & Adam, they later found out that their relationship is written in the stars. Is that romantic?? I'm not sure myself, personally, IT IS ROMANTIC! THEY ARE DESTINED TO BE WITH EACH OTHER!!



Now enough with my enthusiasm of Adam & Cassie...there's a scene stealer named JAKE. His real name is Chris Zylka. Yup, he's the bully guy at The Amazing Spiderman. Well, he's the handsome-mest guy in the series..too bad I can't fin any promotional posters with him in it =.= As for the whole cast of  secret circle, all of the are good looking. I love Faye's character :D I do not know why~

As for the book....same case with Vampire Diaries, waaaaaaayyy different than the series. I personally prefer reading the book but the series is okay since they provide eye-candy. haha! The original sequel is a trilogy but there's a sequel now. I've only read the first few pages, and there's already a make-out scene of Adam & Cassie....WAY TO GO!!! Happy reading? ahahaha

Enough with my random rants then. Here goes the promotional posters I could find and it's all credited to http://secretcirclenews.com/ Enjoy :D







You're welcome :) Thank you for reading!!!

Sincerely yours,
Alicia V
