Yes, after years of avoiding the Twilight craze, I'm sucked in. I'm hooked... and I'm also AMAZED. Why is it that the strangest, most unbelievable stories are the ones that are the most popular? Honestly. I've read A LOT of good books- great reads! Still, they're not the ones that become blockbuster hits, or slews of movies that make millions... It's the ODD ones that get the spotlight- Lord of the Rings (really? Hobbits and Goblins?), Harry Potter(teenage witches and wizards?), Twilight (teenage vampire love story??). What in the world?!?
Well,mesmerized, tonight I breezed through a 500 page book in less than 5 hours... practically a record for me. Still, it was oddly fasinating and differenet. And I'm looking forward to reading the rest of it- crazy!!!
Sleep well and goodnight.
I'm right there with you...I fought it for a while thinking I'd have no interest in vampire stories the high school kids are so nutty over. I finally gave in & read the first 2 books in no time...and they are actually pretty good. But if you want to read a different book that is REALLY good...pick up "The Witching Hour" by Ann Rice....the best book I ever read (and being about the Mayfair witches I never thought that would be my kind of book either)
