A Must Read!


So I kept hearing about this incredible book series by Stephanie Meyer. I mean I've been hearing about how great it is from everyone (friends, family, coworkers). The books are about vampires and that kind of turned me off. It wasn't until my book club decided to read the first book, Twilight, for one of our meetings that I decided I needed to find out what all the fuss was about. It was incredible. There was so much suspense and anticipation that I literally could not put it down. Above all else, it is an beautiful love story. I would highly recommend it. In fact, I finished Twilight today and immediately called the local library to see if the 2nd book, New Moon, was in. The librarian chuckled and informed me that there are 91 people on the waiting list. I can't wait that long. I'm going to B & N today to buy it.

Not to fear, Steph. The author is a BYU grad so you can be assurred that this vampire story won't have the usual sex & gore that other vampire stories do (i.e. Anne Rice). Actually, the vampire element is particularly interesting in this book. They have specific morals/standards (if you can believe it) and their back story is fascinating.
