A few months ago Lisa read the entire Twilight series. It sounded interesting but hadn't peaked my interest. A love story with vampires...whatever. Then the trailers for the movie came out and I thought it looked even more interesting. Then Bryce had to build a web site for one of his classes at school. With my help, we created his "Edward" web site. Hey, it was for a grade and he got an "A". No big deal.
Well, that book was just sort of floating around the house and I hadn't read anything in quite a while. Itching for a new story, I picked it up and read it. I finished all 4 books in 10 days.
AND FOR ALL YOU MEN OUT THERE WHO WANT TO REVOKE ONE OF MY MAN CARDS, BRING IT ON!
Now, lest you confuse with me with some of those raging fanatics who live, breathe, and die by this story, I assure you I am not a fanatic. The story is genuinely good. Stephenie Meyer writes in such a way that you have no trouble actually feeling the emotions that her characters are going through, which is something you want from a story, right? It's very fluid. Besides, what could be more manly that reading a book about vampires and werewolves???
We have already purchased our tickets to see a Saturday afternoon matinee. Good times.

I'm excited you read it!! I want Ben to read it too. We're going to see it on Friday afternoon... I wonder if he can finish the book by then??
I just have to be honest here and say that every man benefits from the wife reading Twilight series!Doesn't get more manly than that and I'm not a fanatic-but like most woman...we love the mushy stuff and let's just say Edward has inspired woman all over! Enjoy the movie!

I'm looking forward to your review of the movie - I'm seeing it with my girls on Thursday @ 5 p.m.
