Still coming to you live from the sunny coast of Texas...
Okay the last few days, not so sunny. The vacation's been good. Little d is still doing great after our little Easter incident. I think I am going into withdrawals from lack of scrapbooking. Although...I have read the entire Twilight book series. Devoured is a better word. As in did not come up for air during the fourth book. Silly, I know. But I will pretend that it was because I am just SO enjoying reading again, not that I am a loony fanatic of Twilight. Even if I am.
Even if I have the soundtrack playing in my truck. Even if I wish I could be a vampire. You know, the vegetarian kind.
I have this weird thing where I can't read a book for a while after reading a really great book. (I know you're thinking 'Mere? Weird? Whoda thunk it?!?') But it's true. I've always been that way. It's as if the characters are too fresh in my head and I can't-don't want to-start another book. In the case of this series it's not that I want it to continue. I mean I was satisfied with the ending. It did feel complete. But for some reason other reading doesn't appeal to me.
Anyway. I am beginning to see the wisdom in waiting until a book trend is way out there before jumping on board myself. I don't have to wait for the next installment to come out. I got to read them all in a row. Very satisfying. Now if only I had done the same for the movies...

I did the same thing with Twilight...Went right through the lot of them without coming up for air! AND my usual read is 'Lord of the Rings' type...so I was Wayyyy outside my comfort zone.
Glad your little duaghter is OK!!!
I did the same. I watched the movie and then decided to read the boks. Read all 4 non stop till i was done. made me want to be a vegitarion vampire too LOL....
I think between the two of them, my sisters have the whole series. If I can pry them away from their third read through, I'll see what all the fuss is about. I need some new blood :)
