The Twilight Series

So has anyone else read this amazing series? It's almost as, if not more popular as Harry Potter!

Info: StephenieMeyer.com | Twilight Series | Twilight

What I think is cool, is the author went to BYU, its just like the school I go to, but I digress..

Anyways, they are making a movie, here are some stills!



^This is the vampire family, Edward in the middle, obviously. Rawr!


***UPDATE***

New behinds the scenes clip of the movie! http://youtube.com/watch?v=ddfRbe_FB8E

HD Movie Teaser Trailer!

Mother of pearl, i LOVE these books! i named my laptop and printer after two of the characters, Esme and Carlisle, respectively.

and i am pumped about the movie, too. apparently, the actors playing Bella and Edward have really good chemistry, so i'm happy.

Yeah totally! I'm on the third right now and I can't put it down!

I've heard a lot of people complain about the characters chosen to play Edward and Belle. Mostly Edward though. But the characters they chose are exactly how I pictured them!

BTW, I found this awesome behinds the scene look of the movie!

aw, the third is really good! my fave is Twilight, tho. it was the first.

i was a little wary of who they got to play Edward, but the more i see of him in interviews and whatnot, the more i'm like, "Yeah, okay. you can do it." so i'm excited. and apparently, the two actors have chemistry on-screen, so thats good. i guess we'll just have to wait until the movie.

OH! and the fourth book, Breaking Dawn! it comes out in less than three months! i am so pumped! I've heard that this one is supposedly written from Edward's perspective. That'll be cool, but i'm not sure. havent looked at her site in a long while.

have you ever been to a book signing of Stephenie's?

I loved the first, second one was dumb (I'm not a big fan of Jacob), but I'm on the third one right now, and its getting very intense!! ^_^

Yeah, thats it! On her site she has a .pdf of the first chapter. I already read it, its so amazing!!!!!!

So sad, I haven't. It's cool though, I wish I could. She lives in Utah I hear. She's the same religion as me too, went to one of the schools related to mine (BYU). I got to BYU-Idaho. Neat huh?!

Pictures, new ones. Amazing ones!!!!!!

The second one I was not quite as thrilled about and hate to admit it but now whenever I go to re-read the books, I for the most part completely skip the whole Bella/Jacob chunk of the book. I just can't read it without feeling sick somehow.

SHE PUT THE FIRST CHAPTER UP?!
I've been waiting for it for so long and as soon as I saw you had said that, I went to her site. I can't find it anywhere on her site. I even went to twilightlexiconblog.com (one of THE BEST Twilight news sites on teh internetz) thinking they might've said something about it and if they did then I completely missed it D:

I pre-ordered my book back in begining of February. Amazon.com was doing this really great sale for pre-ordering books and for those few days whenever you pre-ordered a book it was something like 50% the cover price and free shipping. I ended up paying about $10.00 TOTAL for the book <3

That is beyond awesome. I heard from somewhere (most likely her site) that Stephenie is not going to be doing a large Breaking Dawn tour and to catch her durring her Host tour if we wanted signatures. Sadly, I don't see her coming anywhere near my area in MD.

That is probably what I'll do. I hate Jacob.

Especially in the third book when he kisses her.... AHH!!!!

Breaking Dawn is the next book yes, but after that is Midnight Sun, that is the book where its Twilight from Edwards point of view. StephenieMeyer.com | Other Projects | Midnight Sun

I can't wait to get the book! I'm pretty sure here in Idaho it won't get sold out, so I'm not going to pre-order it.

I dont like the second one either. Jacob is okay, but Edward pwns all. he sparkles!!

while this isnt the first chapter of Breaking Dawn this is the first chapter of Twilight--in Edward's perspective. Very interesting read indeed. and it centers on edward--who wouldnt like that?!

TWILIGHT IN EDWARD'S POV:StephenieMeyer.com | Other Projects | Midnight Sun

$10.00 for the book?! ah, you lucky girl!

Yes, but let's all not forget that in the end when
Spoiler (Highlight to read):
Jacob tricked Bella into believing that he would go kill himself if he had nothing to come back to. In doing so, Bella asked Jacob to kiss her because she has feelings for him but not to the extent that he does for her

Sorry if that made absolutely no sense >_>

I understand what you're saying now. From how I read what you first quoted on in stating that you read the first chapter it made it seem as if said person who you quoted believed the 4th book was in Edward's perspective and that a chapter was up already for Breaking Dawn. I jumped into the pond a bit too quickly xD

I sure hope you're right. Otherwise I might be willing to mail my copy to you the day I get it (read Eclipse in under 3 hours after it was released) xP

I know, that's why as soon as I saw it I jumped for my mum to lemme borrow her card so I could order it. I couldn't stop grinning inside for at least a month at how lucky I was =]

The more I read the third book, the more I hate Jacob. I hated him so much in the second one. I kept screaming, "NO BELLA, What about Edward! Don't give up so quickly!!!!" I was so nervous for that book.

Saber:
Spoiler (Highlight to read):
Jacob didn't trick her, Alice just saw that she had died and went to check it out. Rosalie opened her mouth to Edward and made it sound like she did die, so he went off to get caught in the sun so the Vultari would kill him. Jacob didn't do anything. He just saved her from drowning.

I'll willingly admit that the first time I read New Moon (which sadly was the first book I read; Didn't know about twilight till after I finished New Moon) I cried for a good hour after
Spoiler (Highlight to read):
Edward had left Bella
and I'm one of those types of people who'll never be caught dead crying infront of other people. But you'll like the end of Eclipse. It was either the second to last, or last chapter that was my absolute favorite in the book ^^;

I can't wait to finish it. I wish school wasn't in the way! Dahh!!!!!!

Spoiler (Highlight to read):
I'm to the point just before the vampires from Seattle pay a visit to Forks. They are trying to figure out where to put Bella.

I can't believe that I'd ever do this, but I actually mixed the books up o.o
Eh, just kinda ignore what I had said before and continue reading peacefuly (and don't eat me). Just trust me that I'm right...

School is a pain to deal with. I loaded up on reading durring weekends. That's the only way I can ever finish anything xD

But you're coming to a great part. Look forward to some major explanations and events. Fun fun fun!
