more on Twilight series

Do we really need to keep going on and on about this? Probably not, but if we are thinking about it anyway, why not?


I recently discovered, to my great pleasure, that a good friend of mine in Idaho is also obsessed with these books. Here's what she had to say about it:

"Twilight...Oh, don't even get me started. Ok, never mind, do! It's a drug! How did she do it? I want to write a book like that. I mean, I've read books that you can't put down--Harry Potter, for instance--but I would never call them addicting. I loved it, but to be honest (and maybe this is something you talked about in your book group) I found it downright dangerous. It's all I wanted to do--read that book. No, be in that book. Be part of that book. I couldn't put it down. I wouldn't put it down. Everything real suffered around me, but it didn't matter, because I was with Edward Cullen in Stephanie Meyer's cruel little fantasy vampire land. And, yet, I'll definitely go back for more!"

She summed it up so perfectly for me and how I felt about it! I just had to share it in case anyone else felt like we hadn't exactly figured it out yet.
