I finished the book in one day.
Despite classes and meals and a trip to the gym.
I think I only used a bookmark twice today.
It really was a book I couldn't put down!
I liked it far more than I anticipated... from what I gathered online I thought it was overrated.
I haven't loved a (new) book that much since I first read The Perks or Being a Wallflower.
Or Harry Potter. Or Running With Scissors. Or Invisible Monsters.
I guess I have a new top 5!
Apparently Edward Cullen is completely my type...aside from the vampire thing I suppose, but like Bella I could overlook it. He's old fashioned (or actually just old...) and breathtaking, stoic and strong, smart, I could go on but you know the type.
I also related to Bella a lot. Not the divorced parents or moving around. More like the fact that she was modest and not quite assured of what people saw in her, but not too much so - she didn't want to put a paper bag over her head or anything, but she still didn't understand peoples' feelings towards her. She was more affraid of needles than of Edward, as I would be. She loved books even more than music, as I do - though I'm sure she reads more of the classics. I'm probably nearly as pale as some of the Cullen's in the winter, and yet in the summer the only color i get is highlights in my hair. And, of course, the fact that my mother always told me I was an 'old soul'. I was always wise and witty for a child, not to mention I had a few grey hairs at eight. I liked that we had that in common, you don't hear that alot.
Anyways, finally going to bed.
I ordered the next two books in the series.
They should be here in a week or so...I don't want to wait that long.
Perhaps I'll actually study.
