A random thought as I sit here in a looong meeting

Hey, it's a New Moon tonight! Yes, I've been sucked into the Twilight books....actually I've only read the first one but I'm now wondering what happened to the hold I put on New Moon at the library. hmm...should check that out.

For the record, after reading the first book I'm not nearly as enamored as I was with Harry Potter. IMO J.K. Rowling is a better writer. Still, it's entertaining enough and it made me laugh out loud (vampires sparkling in the sunlight - seriously??)

If I were still a romantic 15 year old I'd be all over these books. Alas, I'm 35 and cynicism has dominated my outlook for some time now.

  1. Haha, they are addicting, arent they. Such a guilty pleasure. I hate that I love them. I can send you my second copy of New Moon if you want it. I ordered a used copy on my b-day, and ended up getting another one from a mystery person the same day. Still no idea who sent it....

  2. New Moon IMO is the worst of the series, however, I liked it because I am SO Team Jacob, LOL! I like the books in this order Eclipse (#3), Twilight (#1), Breaking Dawn (#4) and New Moon (#2). I am excited to see how the movie will turn out, especially since Taylor Lautner (the kid who plays Jacob) is pretty much shirtless the entire movie!! :-) I am a dirrty old lady and I am NOT ashamed!!!

  3. hee hee. I'm actually liking New Moon better than Twilight - there's more action early on. Bella sure is full of drama though - that's getting annoying.
