but I love these books! It’s a little embarrassing because I’m almost 36 years old. My sister that teaches middle school told me all of the kids are reading them. LOL I think Stephanie Meyer does a good job of creating a female protagonist that is someone easy to relate to. She thinks that she is just a normal, awkward person that no one else would be remotely interested in. So when she does have interest shown, she is so surprised and so ready to believe that it won’t last. My heart went out to her and what she dealt with in this 2nd book of the Twilight series. Most of the time when I start reading a book that starts a sequel by the time I finish it I don’t care to read the next book for awhile. But I was chomping at the bit to get to this one, and I’ve got 2 more to read now! But I do have to read some other books before I get to Eclipse. So, give it a try, but you must read Twilight first.
