Twilight


Everyone's talking about it. I was a bit skeptical but just finished reading the first one (yes, I stayed up WAY too late... Not a good thing on the night when I lose an additional hour due to daylight savings...) and now I'm completely obsessed as well. I don't like being a part of the bandwagon, but I can't help that I'm helplessly in love with Edward. And the funny thing is I didn't think I was obsessed when I finished the book. It was definitely enjoyable and I loved it, but now that I'm not reading it and still thinking about it... I know I'm obsessed.
I just got the second and third book so I have to go now...

Hi there. I am not sure how I found your site...but I just had to say Hello. We have almost identical play lists - very cool :-) Anyway...I have read Twilight and New Moon...and have Eclipse in my to be read pile. I am not sure that obsessed is the correct word...but I surely do want to know where it's going and see if Bella will ever learn to be strong. Also...on your "shelf" - Good Omens is one of my favorite books - pee in your pants funny.

Oh---I am so disappointed that you gave in---I have heard so much about these, but I also hear them compared to these other really cheezy "Mormon" "Anita Stansfield" (gag!) romance novels that DRIVE ME CRAZY! I know this one is not "Mormony", but I hear every other sentence is "he is so handsome" or something like that. Now, if you are suggesting it, I may have to take a peek. To gag or not to gag--that is the question!!!

The books are cheesy. But I must admit I haven't fed that cheesy side in a long, long time and it feels so great!

Laura, it's true that she over-uses the sentences about how he looks like a Greek god, etc., but they really are a fun read -- definitely teen romances, but not purely trashy. (And I got kind of obsessed, too.)

Oh man, not another one! I think I'm going to be the last person on the planet to read these books. Kari has been bugging me to read these books for months! She says she's dying to talk to someone new about them! I guess I'll send her your way! :) Now that I might have a minute to read I haven't been able to get my hands on a copy yet. Everyone I ask has their copy loaned out to someone...

Yeah! Another Edward fan.

I know how you feel. But now I'm glad you know how we feel and the reason why I'm such a freak! :-)

Tell Marianna she can barrow my books too.

Good luck with New Moon!

And I love the doggy pictures...so cute!
