Breaking Dawn

I am a fan of Stephenie Meyer's Twilight series of teen Vampire books. I know, it sounds so juvenile and freaky doesn't it? But what can I say, I was hooked from the first book. But if I were to be quizzed on the content (not the lame-o Facebook quizzes, those are no good) I must admit I know I would not be able to beat Tyler or my brother-in-law Grant. One, because they are smarter and probably better test takers and two, because they know the story and details so well. In fact, it was Tyler's idea to attend the midnight release of Breaking Dawn instead of waiting for our copy from BN in the mail. Needless to say, he finished it in 2 days and it took me nearly a week (only because I was at Tyler's folks and distracted by my vacation time). The photos are courtesy of my sister Jennie. At the release we were certainly underessed and overaged. Tyler and Grant were 2 of about 5 other males picking up their copies. And these teen girls were dressed like they were going to the Prom. Weird ?!?! Jennie is showing off her copy of New Moon as she had not even finished that yet. And then she is indulging in the vampiric chocolate. Oh, and Tyler is wishing for me to be the next Stephenie Meyer, just so he doesn't have to work. Did you know she only was originally paid $750,000 for a three-book deal from her publishers? But for this fourth one she received $1 per book and 1.3 million copies were sold by or before the first day alone? She woke up a million and then some dollars richer! Wahoo for her. Well, I honestly don't believe I will wake up with a fantastic dream and sell it is a book or even a play. And even if I did sell a play, let's be realistic, who makes that much money selling play scripts? oh, dream. It is fun to dream, though, isn't it? Perhaps this is why I loved this series so much. To escape. I could go on to review this book but I should save it for goodreads. Hope you all enjoyed it (I know some of you could care less, and for that I think less of you. Kidding!!!!!!!!!! ) and it's been entertaining folks. And no, I am not flipping you all off in the picture above. I am pointing out, w/my cell phone, the huge zit on my chin. I guess I should have been more lady like.
