    I got the book, gonna try to read it.....:laugh: , and no one will slaughter you for an opinion. If you liked the movie, that's really ok :laugh: , I just really didn't like it, it was more like Tinkerbell wih fangs, totally weird.

    Ya, the attraction with it had probably more to do with hormones, turning 50 and lost youth...:laugh: it sure isn't a literary marvel or anything, and I'm not usually such a sheep:ohwell:

    ....I agree - to each his own. At least you will be up on your teenybopper pop culture!

    There are another BRILLIANT set of books by Diana Gabaldon. It's called The Outlander Series. They're adult fiction but another of my most favorite series. The first one is called Outlander. Another amazing guy in those stories that gives unrealistic expectations in men. :laugh:

    My friend got me hooked on the Outlander Series. We're fighting over Jamie... :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    Actually, the Outlander series is Adult Fiction. Not teenybop.

    It's a really great story. TONS of books that 1000+ pages long. Extremely well written.

    I watched Twilight this evening. What a stupid lame movie. Shoulda named it "Retarded freak Sparkly Boy". and that's all I gotta say about that. :happy:

    I just read that to my husband and he laughed & laughed! Thanks!

    :laugh: That's hilarious. Everyone has been telling me to read the books, but they just don't look like something I'd enjoy. I'm following your lead on this one & staying away. LOL

    My daughters swear up and down that the books are way better...but I don't know...:laugh: my theory is, if the recommendations are coming from girls under 16 yrs of age, chances are i'm not going to like it. The whole vampire thing, just isn't my thing.

    ok I'm 30 and I agee with your daughter the books where great the best part of the movie for me was wacthing the young girls in th theatre go nuts:laugh:

    The audio is pretty decent. It's how I actually read the books, because I love listening to books! Try checking the cd's out from your local library!

    I get them on my ipod because I can't read when I fly. I get sick. :embarassed: Freakin motion sickness.
