I'm Reading Eclipse Next

Well I finally found a copy of Eclipse at the YMCA's lending library. It is my plan to read it over the weekend.

Why?

Apparently I have fondness for pain.

I've read Twilight and New Moon, and I've been relatively unimpressed by them.

Truth be told, I don't quite grasp the love that this series has, but I will read them all if it kills me.

There are two things I won't do however.

I will not pay for these books. I will borrow them from friends, but I will not give Stephanie Meyer any more money than she already has, and I will never ever ever watch the movies.

Robert Pattinson = UGH

Wish me luck!

Surviving The Twilight Saga

I'm not fan of the Twilight books. Until this past week I had only read the first one, and it didn't really excite me enough to want to read more. However, last Saturday I took my mother to the hairdresser and on their bookswap shelf was a copy of New Moon. Fool that I am, I picked it up and am now more than halfway through it.

I'm still not a Twihard, and probably never will be, but I do have a strong urge now to finish reading the series. I had a feeling when I read the first book that it would come to this.

If all goes well I should finish New Moon on Friday (the book has eaten up my reading this week). I'll be posting a review, but I'd also like to have some discussion on this one, as most of the bookies I know have said it was the worst of the series.

So if there are any Twilight junkies here, and I know there's at least one (looks pointedly at Jennifer), I want you to jump in and share your thoughts with me. Share with me what you liked and disliked about this one, and tell me why I should read the last two books in the series.

Oh and feel free to wager whether or not I'll survive reading the last books, if I choose to do so.
