Ummm....you just gave away the spoiler. It has a romance in it for sure. And I am a girl so maybe that is why I am liking it. There are some movie trailers on the website that you can watch to see if you are interested......

One of my friends said she really liked the twilight series books. I'm waiting on it now from the library. I'm trying to stop buying so many books, but hate having to wait on the books I really want to read.
I fully recommend buying this series. I borrowed the set from my friend and still have the last book. I've already read it 3 times...I can't help it. It's just sitting there on my nightstand and I can't not read it. I ordered the set to have it all my own. Can't wait for it to get here so I can read them all over again.

It's a love story between a vampire and a normal girl. That being said, I am so not into love stories either...vomit ...I'd rather pick up a Steven King novel any day than a love story. This series has just enough romance (keep in mind it is written for youth, so it's never all mushy crap) but there is some good action too. In the first book, another vampire (who is not a "vegetarian" decides to hunt the girl...if you watch the movie trailer you will kind of see a little bit of the fight scene.

Also, a few posts up I posted a link to the unfinished manuscript of Midnight Sun which is Twilight from Edwards perspective. It's been a while since I read the Harry Potter series so I can't remember how those were written but most of the books are from Bella (the normal girl) point of view. Her thoughts and opinions rather than someone just telling the story.

I just started it yesterday and I will say it is hard to put down. Almost half way done. Smilie I think you wil enjoy it.
LOL...if you're anything like me...you won't be able to put any of them down until you are done with the whole series. Especially Breaking Dawn, the last book.

My little cousin wanted someone to read the series with her, so I'm reading Eclipse now.

Pretty good, and you can roll through them quickly!

I'm also reading The Shack, by Wm. Paul Young.
