Halloween 08

I had fun tonight with Kierstin and Blake... or should I say 'sun moon and winding river'? We made our own customs and Kierstin even sewed her dress... very authentic! Blake won the cutest baby award... of course he did!

Book Review - Twilight

So, I tried very hard to not read the hot new book that every one and their mom loves.... but once I started I could not stop. The first book was nice. Very sweet. You get to know the complicated life's of a teenage girl and a 'vegetarian' vampire. The way that Edward is addicted to Bella is something else. There is nothing like a love story with forbidden written all over it. I don't think there is more turmoil then wanting to be with someone and wanting to kill them at the same time. Why can't every man be like Edward? You know, except for the cold skin, mind reading, oh and the blood drinking?

---------------------------------------------------------

Ok, so I was pissed when Edward left her in this book. Who doesn't like Jacob? But still I prefer Edward on any given day... This one was not my favorite.

---------------------------------------------------------




The third book on the other hand was my favorite. Bella was torn between her 'Paris' and her 'Romeo' or her werewolf and her vampire.

---------------------------------------------------------



The last book was great... at first. You get your romantic wedding night, but then you get all into Jacobs mind. This book was very predictable. However I appreciated the fact that it did not leave you hanging on and dieing for more like the rest.

---------------------------------------------------------

So, all in all these were easy reads and addicting. I'm excited for the movie to come out, but I do not have high expectations.

Reading is fun!

Who knew that reading was so much fun? I feel like I have tapped into a new culture, a new way of spending time. Ryan has enjoyed watching me explore my new talent. Who knows if I will ever be able to beat his record of reading over 1200 pages in one day? But the question is, who has read 4 novels in 1 week? I have.
