Update on my current obsession

Well I finished the 2nd book New Moon in a 24 hour time span as well. I am now in chapter 11 of the 3rd book, Eclipse. I am not kidding when I tell you, that the main character, Edward, is so unbelievebly amazing. She has introuced a few new characters that I am not sure about, none like Edward though. This whole thing is so weird for me, and the reason is, I have never been so into a book series like this before. In the second book, I experienced such emotion. Like I was actually the character Bella. My heart broke when hers did and I would seriously sit there and boo hoo, like it was actually happening in real life. At one point I had to put the book down and sob into my hands. I think I need to be committed!! I am trying to take my time with this book because I don't want this to be over. Although I do have the movie to look forward to (coming out December 12, in theaters everywhere!!). I usually try to read when Wyatt is own for his naps. So today I had the boys in the bath and I thought I will read a chapter while they are in there. Well, one chapter turned into five. People this is serious!! It's like an addicting drug, I seriously need help!!

LOL That's so great. Didn't you love in New Moon when there were the blank chapters? It was so dramatic! I loved it. I was still mad at Edward though at the beginning of Eclipse. I was just so pissed that he left her. Too bad you weren't there at the bookclub. We all vented for a good 2 hours about that book!
Oh and the movie has been moved up to like November 23rd or something like that!

Ha ha!!! I can so relate to you! That's what I did. I would say, "oh I'll just read a chapter while the kids are playing", and one chapter would always end up being 5 or 6. So glad you love them. While I was reading them, that's all I could think about was Edward and Bella. I can't wait for the movie too! You BETTER come with us to the midnight showing! It's going to be awesome!

Okay, I might have to actually read these books. Everybody is talking about them! Our librarian at school has been passing around the audiobooks to teachers and one of my students is reading them(not sure how appropriate they are for a 5th grader, but anyway!). I have not read an adult fiction book since school!
