For Carleen And Any Other Readers...

Okay, any of you that know me very well know that I love to read. Occasionally I get into a series that I just can't put down (usually after the entire thing is already published). I just finished reading the Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer - took me the last three days, which is why I have not gotten anything done around the house or blogosphere. If you liked Harry Potter you'll love this trilogy! I was disappointed with the end, but I think it's because the series ended - not because of how it ended. I was also disappointed with the end of Harry Potter, any Jane Austen book, etc. The best way to describe the books is in the authors' own words:

"I've always admired the ability of some authors to create situations of impossible fantasy, and then add characters that are so deeply human that their perspectives make the situation believable. I hope Twilight offers readers the same experience."

And it does. Highly recommended!

(I'm going to re-read it right now)

Valerie, Sorry about the delay in noticing a post just for me!! :):)!
I've been crazy busy, but very happy to get up to date with everyone. Briaunna has had the twilight books forever and I don't know why I haven't read them yet! I read everything else under the LDS/Christian author sun! Thanks for thinking of me, Love and miss you guys!
