Twilight....

So it took me a little longer than most to finally sit down and read Twilight. I couldn't figure out what all the hype was about, but when I did my perfunctory pick out 3 new books before vacation shopping, I finally decided to grab a copy. I, of course, read my other two books first...I didn't even really want to start reading it. But we all ended up with colds when we came home from Disney and spent our last few days of vacation lying around the house, so after too many Beverly Hills, 90210 reruns I finally decided to start it.

Okay, wow, all I'm going to say is I'm madly in love! Like high school girl crazy crush in love. I want to be Bella, I want Edward to love me! I totally want to be 17 again and fall in love with the hottest guy in school and find out that he is a vampire! I know this all sounds completely insane from a, ahem, 32 year old grown married woman with a child, but I can guarantee if any of you out there have read the book, you will know EXACTLY what I mean!

So, of course, I immediately ran out and bought the other 3 books and read them as quickly as I could, then I watched the movie. I know this sounds absolutely insane, but I have never felt so emotionally attached to characters in a book in my life. I'm slowly but surely coming down from my Edward withdrawals now that reality has set back in and life after vacation has continued to move forward, but somehow I find myself still wishing for more....at least I have "New Moon" the movie to look foward to!

Swoon....how gorgeous is he??? Seriously, if you haven't, read the book! Just be prepared to ignore reality for a few days.....
