Twilight Saga









For those of you who know me you know I have been caught up in a new book series by Stephenie Meyer called "Twilight." These books are somewhat controversial because one of the main characters is a vampire. I know, you say, Jenny is reading a vampire book, goodness! Well it is actually a teen love story and I have just been captured by it. Just like with the Harry Potter series I think in order for you to debate a book's worth you need to read it to see what all the fuss is about. I have a huge problem with people trashing something they have never even read. So anyways back to the point of the this post I finished the last book in the series last night and now I am lost without a story to get swept away in. But the movie for the first book is coming out in a few weeks so I am anxiously awaiting to compare the book to the movie. So I say if you have some questions about the worth of this book try it out and tell me what you think.

Oh Jenny how could you read those books, I mean just because they are the best books written in many years. Just because the materpieces have the abilty to sweep you up, and even encourge hours and hours of reading. How could you..
Oh and I am on book three, oh my!!

I heard some girls raving about the books on the elevator the other day. I'll try to give the book a shot - but if not that, then I'll definitely give the movie a shot. :)

Sam was just telling Janet and I about these books yesterday morning. Guess we need to see what you girls are reading!(-: Sounds like it is a good read!

Preach it girl! As a Harry Potter lovin' teacher, I totally agree. I guess I need to jump on the band wagon. Some of my students are reading the series and they love it! I will give it a try.
