Default Twilight Book Question

Ok so here is the Deal. I know I am behind on everything, but I just saw the movie and .....ahhhh I loved it!!!!!! I have a new favorite movie. I seriously could have watched it twice in a row. And can't wait till the DVD comes out!!!!!!!!! I want to know more. I have never been one to sit down and read a book (normally don't hold my interest), but I am seriously considering it. Are the books easy to keep up with? I don't want to get lost. lol

They are quick and easy (and addicting) reads! I finished Twilight in like 4 hours cause I just couldn't put it down and then finished both New Moon and Eclipse in about a day! Breaking Dawn did take me a bit longer but it is the longest of the books! Also the books are available in an audio version as well if you don't want to sit and actually read them

Yeah, they're really easy reads, I think its because they're geared towards teens. I think each book took me about 3 days.

Extremely easy reads. I read the entire series in less than a week and that was with slowing myself down cause I was going too fast. Every one of the people at work that I have gotten into them as flew through them, too.

I agree with everyone else. They are very easy reads. I normally am not a big reader and I couldn't put them down. If I hadn't borrowed Twilight to a coworker, I would probably start reading it again.

I was so sad I went to the store and they only had a paperback of Twilight and hardcover of Breaking dawn. I was wanting to get the hardcover of Twilight, and New Moon. So I have to wait till I go to Books a Million on Friday. I guess that is good though since I have a Pampered Chef party I am suppose to be preparing for. But still I was disappointed!

P.S I so wish I could go see the movie again!!!!!

Good luck finding the hardcover. I had the same problem.
I want to see the movie again also, but for now I'm just listening to the soundtrack! Good music!

Me too! It's my new favorite CD.

I wish I could go see the movie again but I don't think my DH would be too happy about it. I guess I'll have to wait until it comes on DVD.

Let me tell ya the day it comes out on DVD I will be lined up for a copy. I would pay $40 for that thing! LOL Then I am going to go home and watch it AT LEAST twice. I thought it was so neat that the author said the whole idea for the book came from a dream! Boy how neat. Wish I could dream something awesome and make a book out of it!

So someone tell me. . . What is it you like so much about the story? I know a lot of people who read the book first said they did not care for the movie as much. I loved it! A lot of people said they did not care for the girl Bella's acting. I thought it was great. I loved how it was not your over the top smitten lovey dovey and was more of a mysterious and dark feeling love.

LOL and I thought how they played Edward's family was AWESOME. I loved the part when they all enter slowly at the same time! I loved how they all just glowed! It was just awesome! And the Baseball game, I don't care for sports, but I just loved it! And the whole feel of the location! The whole movie was full of eye candy for me.

So nice to see a dark movie that was not another Saw!
