I wish I would have seen Katie's interview with Raffaele Sollicito. He was interviewed briefly by Anderson Cooper yesterday on CNN -- plugging the book he just wrote about the trial and his time in jail. He said he had only been dating Amanda Knox for 9 days when her roommate was murdered. I still wonder if Amanda and Raffaele were guilty or innocent.
Yes, I know what you mean. Katie said E.L. James was very shy.
I can only just imagine, especially if she's never been in such a spotlight before, what it must be to have such a following now and money making book with a movie deal to boot. She admitted they were all her own personal fantasies. She has several more book ideas....for future.

Katie will certainly fill Oprah's empty spot.

Not sure if I will read Raffaele's book; there are so many out there now.
Perhaps if Amanda writes one....I might, but last year I read the three below, mainly to get a background on Perugia and the atmosphere surrounding the murder and subsequent trial........
