but anyway, new thread i haven't checked in for several weeks, and i was reading the end of the last thread. and agree that edward and bella so need to consumate their relationship, and in a way i hope it's pre-transformation!!!!!! but post transformation will work for me too that is if there is a transformation. there better be!

i also just read that SM's next project will be Midnight Sun. gaaaaaahhhhhhh. i'm really looking forward to that :swoon:

Ooh, that sounds like a good idea. Although I think that I might get my best friend to try them out when she gets home from Alaska at the end of the summer, I definitely think that she'd like them. And then I would be able to go with her or one of my sisters who made me read the books in the first place.

I know my friend will like them, I just hope she gives them back. She's had a few of my books since the end of last year.

Hi

My name is Sher. I am a bit of a latecomer to this series of books. I was discussing vampires stories with a friend and the series was recommended to me. I didn't know what to expect but the woman at the bookstore told me I'd be addicted. I smiled politely...and was back in less than 24 hours later to buy New Moon and Eclipse. Those were both done inside the next 72 hours. I'm on my second read through of Eclipse right now...I think I'm just going to keep re-reading them until Breaking Dawn comes out.

The clerk at the bookstore was telling me about the release of Breaking Dawn and I made a joke that it would take me that long to read all 3 books. The same clerk was there the next day when I returned to buy New Moon and Eclipse less than 24 hours later. I blamed her I haven't been a reader in so long. It's wonderful to be passionate about a story again

It's so easy to be passionate about them as well.

Passionate about books in general or these books? I couldn't agree more. These stories have owned me since I purchased them

For me, definitely this story.

I think for the past two months I have been "eat, sleep, & breathe Twilight"!

Ah yes, re-reading, I'm doing that now, I always find some new detail I missed before.

I haven't reread any of them yet. I bought the first one, then the next two when I finished that one, but haven't gotten the chance to go back. I'm hoping to get the time to do it in the two days before Breaking Dawn comes out after I get home. I'm really excited to see what happens. We must have a strict no spoilers clause on this thread for quite some time until everyone gets a chance to read it. Because if I have to wait a day or two to read it I don't want to be spoiled.

^^^ i may have to stay away, b/c it's hard for me to resist the spoiler boxes but since i'll probably read the book in no time flat.....i'll be able to write plenty of them

CAN NOT WAIT! to read and chat

This story has owned me since I found it. I couldn't agree more about the eat, sleep & breathing of Twilight. You're not crazy...or we both are

I know eh? The second read through has been amazingly eye opening for me. You see it from a whole new perspective now that you know more about Edward...things that didn't make as much sense the first time through are like light bulb moments!

I find I get more tangled up in the beauty of the words now...even more carried away by the love

I can't wait either. I'm going at midnight. My hubby does it for video games. Why not me for a book

I am trying to resist spoilers too
