Consumed

Yes, I'm one of those weird "Twilight" people. Never in my life have I been so consumed with a series of books. When my friend Tomi suggested (nearly insisted) that I read them, I told her I had zero interest in reading about vampire love. I've always been creeped out with that scary monster stuff that I was sure the books were going to entail. Eventually I gave in to my friend's request (she knows me pretty well) and decided to give the books a try. By about the third chapter I was sucked in big time, and will readily admit that these books are NOTHING like I thought they would be. It is an intense, unique love story with twists and turns that continue to throw me for a major loop. At the risk of sounding like a pathetic teenager, I have gotten completely lost in this love story between Edward and Bella, and I'm going to feel pretty lost when it's over. I'm now about 2/3's of the way through the last one, "Breaking Dawn" and am trying to slow down a little to make it last just a while longer. Sad, I know. I fully expect to start reading them all again from the beginning, b/c I know I've probably missed stuff in my efforts to hurry to the next part. Oh, they are so very good.
