I needed some cheering up today. No question there. Library never has any copies of Twilight, and yet they had just received a copy of the last book in the series(Didn't bother to memorize it yet, too preoccupied with its predecessor..).. Good fortune there.
But..for a further act of providence, I recalled the instant joy of ebooks.(Dabbled in this during the Potter days..) So, in being the proper pirate that I am(yes, yes, I am.), I downloaded the first three novels in the series.(Arrest me. Go ahead. Boofrickity hoo, I'm as evil as anyone else desiring a good mental meal.. and if this is the worst of my crimes, I think I'm better for it.)
I'm very pleased about what I've been reading so far.. Quite honestly, I've been looking for a good work.. It's about time.
As for the movie, I'm still uncertain. I want to see it, but at the same time, I'm hoping it won't be another boring foray into teeny bopper faux-romance/drama bullshit...like most modern movies of this caliber.
The books are mystifying, beautifully imagined works. I just fear that Hollywood will deconstruct and crapify them.
...I'd love to be wrong about this.

I'm looking forward to seeing "Twilight" as well...I just hope we don't have to see Bella making dinner for Charlie as often as she does it in the book. Ha ha.
