Twilight - Best books since Harry Potter
So it is really rare when I find a book or series of books that can a)hold my attention longer that 20mins and b)make me re-read them over and over again cuz I can't seem to get the words out of my head.
The last time this happened was with the Harry Potter series.
I was looking at mtv.com a few weeks ago and I noticed in their movie section, there were all these postings about the new movie Twilight (due out in Dec 08). I started reading the article's published on it and saw that the movie is based of the 2005 novel of the same name.
Reading further I found that there is are 3 (soon to be 4) books in this series, and that it is about Vampires. Now those who know me really well know that I have this weird obsession with Vampires, I love them. I have seen almost every Vampire movie out there as well as read most the books that involve them. So imagine the look on my face when I see that there is a new Vampire series out there.
So, then I started thinking, how did I not know these books existed. Easy, the first book in the series was released in 2005, right in the middle of the Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince novel was released and HP 4 movie came out. I was so involved with those that I didn't even look to see what other books were being released.
After reading the MTV.com articles and reading a little bit on the web, I went and bought all three books in the series, and go figure, I couldn't put them down. I finished all three books in about 3 1/2 days, and I am now re-reading them (more slowly this time).
I highly recommend that people go buy these books, I haven't read such a good love story in a really long time. Also keep an eye out for the movie.
I don't think anyone will be disappointed.
