I really want to see If I Stay! The book was so good.

They have to get Teddy right, though. And Adam. And Mia’s parents.

I know, and I’ll take advantage of the library, already have a Monroe Co. library card. It’s just so convenient to walk down the hall! I check them out online and the library secretary walks them up to me if I don’t go right away.

Yeah. I’m spoiled!

I want a Kindle, but I love holding and owning the books themselves.

I’m going to miss the easy access to these novels. I’m retiring in June and moving to Big Pine Key in Florida. (tough life) I just checked out the dead and the gone by Susan Beth Pfiffer to take with me on spring break. I loved Life As We Knew It.

rita, so glad twilight led you to other YA novels! you’re right – there’s SO MUCH out there that’s amazing.

Michael Cera = George Michael Bluth. I haven’t seen him in anything else and don’t want to. You’re right; he is SO not hot.

I still haven’t seen the Eclipse trailer; I work at a high school and can’t watch stuff like that at work. The Teachers Are Reading club introduced me to Twilight 1.5 years ago; I’d never even heard of it OR the movie and couldn’t have cared less.

Until.

I’m now totally and irrevocably in love with the series and the movies. And RPatz. I’m 57. My husband hates the whole Twilight thing and was upset that I bought my very own little PocketEdward to carry around on adventures. Why, just this weekend, PocketEdward finally found his nuts at the base of one of our coconut palms.

But I digress.

Twilight led me to explore other YA novels. I’ve discovered so many that I love.

p.s. OMG I CAN’T BELIEVE I FORGOT TO SAY THIS!! That’s the first time I’ve seen that HP sneak, too, and I just about died. Matt’s re-reading the Deathly Hallows right now, and I just read some of it to him on our recent car trip to Kerrville, and the sneak made me so excited!!! Since they’re splitting it into two, I’m hoping they won’t have to leave ANYTHING out.

She does kind of describe Peeta as “doughy” or something like that. Or beefy–some word that makes me think of him as sort solid, not fat or anything.

It’s so nice to find that other people are as annoyed with Michael Cera as I am! But Youth in Revolt does look funny, I’ll definitely rent it (unless Posh says it’s terrible).

Erin, your song is amazing.

I was so surprised at hubby’s view of Peeta. I can tell though that there is no changing his mind. Must be the Manly Man thing. Broke my heart though when he said Peeta should’ve died. That was a low blow and wrong on some many levels…even the literary one.

Can’t wait for the first man’s PoV entry!

Oh man, Erin, you’re my hero.
You guys, I think you’re right about the Peeta thing, and that makes me v. v. sad.
