Too, too long!

It been ages since I updated my reading list...oops!


I feel like there may be one or two books I have forgotten since it has been so long since my last update, but if I figure it out I will add them in later. In all of the time that has passed I have done a fair share of re-reading old favorites like the Hitchiker's series by Douglas Adams and Under the Tuscan Sun by Frances Mayes as well as devouring a new favorite...the Twilight Saga!

One of my best friends since kindergarten brought her set along when went on vacation for a week down in Sea Isle, NJ. I didn't start reading until mid-week and let's just say devour is the right word! I read Twilight in just under 24hrs, New Moon around the same speed, but slowed down with Eclipse as we had to head to my home town and throw a surprise party for my Dad's 60th b-day. If I had a block of time I probably would have sped through that too!!! And unfortunately I left the 3rd book at my parents which caused another slight delay (right before the action starts of course) so I ended up buying the box set for my self at Words so that I could get to the exciting parts of Eclipse and get rolling on Breaking Dawn. Yes, all 4 books were read in under a week!

Now, I can not say that these are the best books I have ever read but they are like literary crack...completely addicting! Some parts are completely predictable and some what formulaic from book to book, but perhaps it taps in to the geeky high school feelings and the need to belong coupled with the perfect guy (albeit an un-dead guy) that makes these books so compelling to girls of all ages.
