Back from Vacation

I have been on vacation to Forks, Washington this past week. Not in the literal sense but figuratively speaking. This trip was not planned. A friend of mine loaned me her Twilight books, so Sunday August 9 I sat down on the rainy afternoon and read. The rest of the week I didn’t accomplish more than reading my books. What was going to happen to Bella, Edward and Jacob next? Would Bella survive this chapter as it seems she is a magnet for bad things to happen? As soon as I was done with one I went to the next one. This was way cool because I usually have to wait for the next book in a series. With the exception of Saturday when I helped my parents move, I read the books. The first book came out in 2005 why did it take me so long to read the books? At first I thought they were teen books. Then I was told to read them by a friend that doesn’t usually have the same taste in books as I. I admit when she raved about them I thought I would never like them if she liked them that much. I was wrong. I probably owe Brian for this week since I was a little distracted and he seemed to take care of the boys. I ate with them and gave them their baths but any chance that I had I went to Forks.

Now I’m anxious to see the movie. I know I will be disappointed that they characters don’t look like I imagined them while I was reading the books. But I can get past that as I have in the past. I saw on a website that she might do another book from this series which would be the first book from Edward’s perspective. I look forward to that.
