Vampire trilogy

Tonight I finished a trilogy I've been reading by Stephenie Meyer. A fellow book lover at school, the photography teacher, told me I had to read these books. I was putting them off, because they are about vampires. Now, in recent years I've really branched out in my reading. I used to only read mysteries. I've been better lately, but vampires was outside my desired reading. But she kept on me, so I checked them out of the library. I could not stop reading! I went instantly from one book to the next. I feel sad now that I've finished...

First is Twilight--498 pages
Second is New Moon--563 pages
Third is Eclipse
--629 pages

All read in 1 week.

Meyer's novels are considered Young Adult Literature. I know many people who consider YA Lit to be "beneath them". But written correctly, YA Lit can be just as good, if not better, than adult literature. These novels were so well-written. The fourth book comes out in August, and I can't wait. Twilight is being made into a movie that will be out at Christmas.

If you have a chance, read these books. I highly recommend them.
