Time to ‘fess up…
I tried, god knows I tried. I picked up the book three or four times in various airports across the globe, but made myself put it down. I’m not 14, I told myself. I don’t fancy Robert Pattinson (great surname by the way), and judging by the freaks I saw at a Portland bookstore the night of the release of the 4th book, I really did not want to be a Twilight fan. Plus, I should be reading intellectual, intelligent books – if I ever actually have the time to read a book again. So, I picked up my battered Pride & Prejudice and boarded the plan, Twilight-less (in retrospect, it is hilarious that I thought I’d be able to read a book on a transatlantic flight with a six-month old.)
But, as summer took its sweet, lazy time arriving in Idaho this year, I rented the movie. I was hooked. I read all three books in under a week and am trying my hardest to hold off on the finale until my camping trip this August through Oregon – a hop, skip and a jump from Washington where the saga is set (that and I hear it’s a real let down, so I want to savor the dark, fluffy world of Forks a few weeks longer.)
Anyway, just saw the trailer for the second movie, apart from the fact the wolf looks like a slightly scarier version of Stanley, I’ll be there – minus the fake blood and bad hair. This is a girl who owns the entire series of Buffy on DVD after all.

My only reason to wish summer would fly by…
