So....I FINISHED THE TWILIGHT SERIES!
I read half of the third, and the entire fourth book in 2 days. Only stopping to eat, drink, and other human neccessities that vampires don't have to deal with. Nate laughed at me, but I got so into it, and just wanted to know what happened! Finally, I convinced him that if he would just leave me alone for a while, I'd be done and it would be over.
And now, it's over. And I'm sad. What am I supposed to read now!? Any suggestions?
I highly recommend this series to anyone that has not read it yet. I realize that it's not for everyone - there are vampires, magic and it really is geared toward teenagers/young adults. If you like Harry Potter there is a good chance you will love this (though they aren't remotely the same). This is a love story between a vampire and a very lucky girl.
I was extremely pleased with the storyline, even though a few times I thought the author was crazy as hell for some of the things she was writing - and I can say that her writing did nothing but improve throughout the series. The last book is about 5 steps up on the writing skill level from the first - it's almost like someone else wrote it.
Only complaint, and it's not really even a complaint, but these books get kinda sexual. Hah! And while that's fine with me (as an adult) it's very strange to think of my 11 year old cousin reading a story that involved pillows being ripped to shreds by teeth....I'll leave it at that.
Loved it, loved it. And, I have a pretty large crush on Edward. It's kinda ridiculous, but hopefully the pain in my heart will subside as time goes on! :)
