Twilighters!! I've been bitten....

I'm anxiously awaiting Stephenie Meyer's next book, Breaking Dawn (due out Aug. 2). I so enjoyed the trilogy of Twilight, New Moon, and Eclipse. I almost hated finishing it because I knew there wasn't another one waiting. They were fun books to read.

The movie is currently in filming and comes out Dec. 12 - surely someone will take me for my birthday - it's what I have to do. So far I like what I'm seeing with the casting, though I would have combed Edward's hair! Perfection would not be the windblown teen look. Costumes might be a bit over the top too in places since Bella prefers a very natural, unfussed look and she is totally un-fashion-conscious. Hollywood won't be able to do that. http://www.mtv.com/overdrive/?id=1585900&vid=226476

Author with "Bella" and "Edward" (Movie). Stephenie is my daughter Jennifer's age and a BYU graduate! Bestseller bookwriter and now movies - I think they'll rival Harry Potter in popularity. Already assumed the number one spot on the NY Times bestseller list for young readers.
The Cullen Family in Film (Emmet, Rosalie, Esme, Edward, Carlisle, Alice and Jasper)

Coming soon...

Fantasy

For anyone who knows me it is no surprise that I don't get into fantasy. I haven't even read Harry Potter but I just finished New Moon (second in series by Stephenie Meyer) and I'm starting on Eclipse tonight. I'm hooked!

Late note: The Eclipse I picked up from the library turned out to be Spanish!!! I guess the word is the same as in English so the title looked right and of course the author's name was in English - the small print below her name was in Spanish but I was so excited to be able to get the book quickly I didn't look closely. So, I've requested a copy. Hopefully it will be in soon; my Spanish wont' cut it. In fact most of the Spanish I know I learned from the kids in Head Start when I worked there and at least 45% of the kids were Spanish speaking. I learned all the names of the figures on the eye chart anyway.
