Ideas for Casting of A Great And Terrible Beauty
I absolutely loved this book, I have the second but it's been so long since I've read the first I feel like I need to reread it before I read the second and third.
I will add people to the list as I come across them, and it will likely grow more after I reread the first book.

She achieved five A and four B grades at GCSE, including a B grade in drama.

I would like to try and stick to an all British cast, but I couldn't help myself with this one. She is just breaking into film and could use a role like this to further her career instead of going the CW/ABC Family route as many actors and actresses do. She fits the description very well, she just needs to develop an authentic accent.- Actress
