My Newest Obsession

I haven't posted anything in a while because I have been preoccupied with a new obsession--reading Stephenie Meyer's Twilight series. Now I am not a reader at all. (I couldn't tell you the last book I read. Besides children's books which I read daily to my students) Not because I do not like to read, but because I am too picky and nothing suits me. My friends at school raved about the books and that's all I heard about for weeks. When I heard it was about vampires I was like NO WAY! I don't like all of that mess. They were finally able to convince me to read the 1st of the 4 books and they said I would be hooked and they were right. I carry my book everywhere with me and I read it every chance I get. I even have to fight the urge to pick it up during the school day when I am supposed to be teaching.
I am about half way through the 4th book and it is by far the best one!!! I swear I will probably never read another book again because I know that none will ever come close these books. I have even convinced Alan to read them. He just finished the first book and started the 2nd one tonight. He dosen't care for the love story part of it but likes the vampire stuff. I am just the opposite. I can't get enough of the lovey dovey stuff :)
Friday some of my friends and I are going to the movies to see Twilight the movie which is based on the first book. We are so excited to see it. We are all taking off around lunch time to catch the 1:30 show because we just can't wait until 7:00!
