thumb.gif Emily loves the books and is a huge fan of the author! She just saw the movie and she said it was good (she's a teenager I don't think I'm going to get much more out of her than that) laugh.gif

I'm definately going to have to borrow them from her.

Yes, I read them all this summer. biggrin.gif

They are incredible!!! I can't say enough good things about them...I really became obsessed! blink.gif

But, I'm not touching the movie. I've had friends who said they wished they would have never watched it. I'm fine with how things remain in my imagination. wink.gif

Funny that you posted this...I just carried the book in here to check my email. I just finished it and am reading the first chapter of the next one---in the back of the first. This was never my type of book but I gave it a chance and 20 pages in I WAS HOOKED!! I loved it and was intrigued all the way through. It was a very fast read despite the almost 500 pages. I must run out to get New Moon!

There are maybe 20 pages where I felt it got a bit slower but then BAM, right back into it. Edward....I agree, I can imagine how the movie would ruin it, you can't put true human forms with the descriptions in the book, the way they move, glow, the intensity of the looks...no way an actor could portray what I have in my mind.

The books are an easy read and entertaining. They've got nothing on the Anne Rice books though. And the movie? Stay away. I went to see it with a co worker on Friday and it was horrible. sad.gif

I'd never heard of it until about 2 weeks ago, and with all the hype I was thinking I should check it out. Then I heard Ryan Seacrest read a few sections of the books on his afternoon radio show (I'm forced to listen to it at work) and it sounded like a really badly written romance novel. But maybe he was just picking bad parts to read?
