I know obsessions are not good things to have. But you can’t be blamed for getting into an obsession you weren’t expecting in the first place right? (Sigh) My poor husband…

I had heard of Stephanie Meyer’s Twilight series but never took interest. Frankly, vampires turns me off. Until my friend and visiting teacher said how amazing it was. So, once while we hung out at Hastings, Ry reading 4×4 magazines and me wondering around aimlessly, I picked it up and decided how long it took me to read the first chapter. It was good but it didn’t suck me in exactly. Even Stephanie says the first three chapters weren’t the strongest ones. But after desperately needing something to do on my lunch break, I broke down and purchased the first book. Less than $10 dollars-its sooo worth it. I cannot say to much about how I feel other than that I NEVER thought I could have the same experience with any book but Harry Potter which is still near and dear to my heart. After Harry Potter was over, I cried and when I thought of it, I ached a little. I felt so ridiculous, just like I do now. How can someone make you wish you could fall in love with vampires!? Don’t tell me you don’t feel the same way. I knew that Harry Potter was bad for me when I started dreaming about it. I can recall at least 4 dreams that occurred over last summer as I read 5, 6, and 7. Many times especially while reading the final book, I could not sleep. Well, I had my first dream about Twilight last night. However it wasn’t exactly about that. See, I finished reading the book last night. I tried not too but I could not stop, especially since hubby was on the phone. He doesn’t like my obsession very much either which is funny but I do also feel bad. Anyway, so I knew that when I finished reading the first book without a copy of the second I would feel ultimate impatience. So, that was my dream last night. I was in a book store looking desperately for the second book and it was no where to be found. There was more too it but that was the most key part. I still don’t have a copy mostly b/c someone very close to me doesn’t want me to buy it. If there was a paperback version, I would already have it. But it left with such a cliffhanger that I can’t stop thinking about it. I am so terrible. If you want to share your experience with this amazing novel I would love to hear it. Just remember I have only read the first book and if you spoil it for me, I will block you from my blog and not talk to you for a very long time. I am talking to you Farrah…

P.S.  I find it funny that the actor playing Edward in the now in production film of Twilight actually starred at Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter.  How great is that!  He is pretty close to perfect for the part in my opinion minus the scruff in the picture.   Robert Pattinson
