I finally succumbed and read Eclipse, the third book in Stephenie Meyer's Twilight series. (Thanks, Daisy, for lending me your copy!) I did this mostly while I was in Portland (see below post), and what a great setting to read it in! I think most of the Twilight movie was actually filmed in Portland, because it totally brings the story to life. The woods, the clouds, the brilliant sun, and the beach--all very important backgrounds.I liked the third book better than the second, and of course want to read the fourth and final when it comes out. I can't believe how sucked in I am by the teenage drama of it all. I can't decide whose "team" I'm on, but I think I'm leaning toward Jacob only because he's a warm body who she can have kids with. :) How's that for primal? Besides, I'm in love with my own big, tall, brown-skinned, and warm-bodied guy--how could I not be partial to Jacob? At least mine smells better. :)
I'm not in love with the casting choices for the movie, though. I don't care for either Edward or Jacob, but I think the choice for Bella seems pretty decent. Anyway...

Didn't I loan you that book?? I'm sorry you just finished it! You could've asked to borrow it again!
Glad you liked it! Now you've gotta read The Host.
I'm glad I don't know what I'm missing. This series seems to be quite the epidemic!
So, I'm completely controlling myself. The book still sits on my end table upstairs where I left it when you dropped it off almost a week ago. I have to control myself and get SO MUCH DONE before I pick it up because I know when I go, nothing will get done for at least 48-72 hours. Glad you could enjoy it.
Psh. I'm on Edward's side!! I absolutely cannot STAND Jacob. :l So I didn't like New Moon.
btw... The Host is a REALLy good book. I couldn't stop reading it!!! LOVED IT. :D
