Much to my embarrassment I was sucked into the Twilight fury, the jet stream, as if the popularity was on a downward curve. I tried to resist the draw, passing it off as some high school fad but I must admit I'm a sucker for vampires. LOL
It didn't help that about a week ago I watched the Twilight movie at my sister's house. The movie left soooo many holes and so many questions that I KNEW I had to read the books to find out what was behind all the tension between Bella and Edward. Mmmm ... Edward.
I had been a fan of Anne Rice's, The Vampire Chronicles until it got too weird for me. I can't remember if I had stopped after reading Queen of the Damned but it's the last book I recall in the series. It was more geared towards adults. So did I want to take this excursion and go back to high school? Oh yeeeeah.
I devoured the Twilight series in 6 or 7 days. My friend Carrie told me about Midnight Sun, Edward's perspective from the first book. It was online, not yet published. Some "friend" of Stephanie Meyer's published an unfinished manuscript without permission. On Stephanie's official website I found the permitted draft, 264 glorious pages.
It's still under construction but thankfully after MUCH protest Stephanie WILL publish Midnight Sun. When? I don't know and even though I just finished the draft I WILL buy this companion book. Todd won't appreciate that. I've been selfishly absorbed with the saga so much so that things have suffered a bit around the house.
So, I'm back, back to blogging..
