What has been keeping me up at night...

the Twilight Series


I started the series back in February and immediately after finishing off the first book I bought the second book. However, I let it sit on my table knowing that I didn't have the time to start reading it because it would consume me and I wouldn't get anything else done. Well, our Utah trip was a great opportunity for me to start reading again but I didn't get a chance to start reading it until the trip home. I was consumed and had to get the next book as soon as I finished the second, but this time I didn't wait to read it. Fortunately for me (but unfortunately for my family) the final book came out a few days after I finished the third book. Suzy invited me to the midnight release party which ended up being really worth it since we were able to get the book at 40% off (I looked the next day at Borders and it was only 15% off). Although I thought I would be waiting there forever after midnight to get my book, since I was number 502, I ended up getting it around 12:30 AM. I still had to read at least the first chapter after I got home, but soon needed sleep. I read any chance I got, ignoring household duties but taking time off to prepare a lesson for Sunday. I finally finished yesterday and what a huge relief to my family that I can do the laundry and clean again.
