I have a new found love in my life. I am completely obsessed with The Twilight Series by Stephenie Meyer's. I never would have thought that I would be addicted to a series of books, given that I have not read a single book since High School. And to be honest, I couldn't honestly tell you that I actually even made it through a whole book in High School. I have hated reading my whole life. So as you could tell, this is HUGE for me.
How did this all come about? Well... let me tell you. It all started at scrapbook club a couple months ago. Darling little Meg was telling us a little about the books. How great they were, and that she had an obsession with them. Kim had the books and had of course already read them. So Shelley decided that she would borrow them. Of course she loved them too, and soon found herself obsessing over them. She gave the first one to me and told me to read it. I of course said no way. She kept pushing and pushing, and finally I decided to try and read them, just to get her off my back.
I can honestly tell you it was the best decision I have ever made... when it comes to reading. I read all three books in three days. I stayed up until 5 o'clock every morning reading. It was ridiculous!! I just couldn't put them down.
Then Meg told Kim and I about the Twilight Mom's website. It's terrific! So many women all infatuated with the books and the characters. I am on the website at least ten times a day checking for updates on the movie, and of course Robert Pattinson. He's playing Edward!! I love it! LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!! He's just too dang cute.
Not only that, September 11th is Stephenie Meyer's day in Forks Washington. The Twilight Mom's have groups going, and I am going with them!! Kim, Shelley, and Meg are all going too! I am so beyond excited for the trip. It's going to be a great girls outing with everyone who has the same love and passion for the books. So for anyone who lives in Forks, prepare yourselves because the Twilight Mom's are going to take over the town for a few days!!

I totally agree, I never thought I would even care about a book with Vampires as the main characters but I was obsessed and I read the whole series in 2 days! I am in love with Edward and am counting down the days until the next book and the movie! Yeah, I am so glad that you liked them!
I REALLY enjoyed reading the first one, and then I just never bothered to go buy the rest in the series. But you have inspired me to take a trip to the library tomorrow - and if Marty gets fed up with me reading every spare second, I'm going to blame YOU! :) Just kidding, actually I am so proud of you for reading! You will have to tell me all about your trip to Forks. When I read the book, it was summer in Mesa and I wanted to be in that rainy climate SOOOO bad!!! I'm so excited for you!
Kristy-Hello- I found your blog from others in the neighborhood (wish i was still there somedays). You aren't the only one! I read all 3 in 4 days and then read them AGAIN over the next 5-I had to slow down and feed my family and do the laundry. Can't wait for book 4 and the movie. Twilight Moms is part of my daily routine too! Hope all is well for you and Kelly and the twins!
