    one annoying thing, i think it began in eclipse and carried on through breaking dawn... i dindt like the way edward starting calling bella 'love'. he hadnt done it in the previous books so it was a little off putting. eg, ' relax love'. kwim?
    Totally agree this annoyed me too! It was as if he was talking down to her? Which didnt fit with him.

    Hollo Midnight sun was written and she sent it out to trusted friends to read and someone leaked it so she didnt finish it! We hope and pray she will finish it one day! Its from Edwards prospective.

    I just read Twilight!!!!

    Although being written for teenagers, and being an easy read so far is annoying, I had to read it all the way through really fast.... I couldn't put the damn thing down!!!

    and I LOOOOOVE Edward.....

    Now I have to run out and grab the next ones when money permits.....

    One of my fav quotes so far is ..."You are my life now" he answered simply.... *drool*

    You can read Midnight Sun on her website. It is unfinished and unedited and she has stated that because of the invasion of her privacy with the leak that she probably won't finish it.

    But she knew people would try to find the leaked copy anyway so she has published it in PDF format on her website. I haven't read it - as a writer I can understand how embaressed and devastated she would have been when this happened.

    I read the first chapter in the special edition too and I have been tempted so many times to read the whole thing!! I did like how it gave readers a better description of Bella - and a look into Edward's broody mind. I really hope she does finish it and publish it one day.

    I cried so much at the end of Breaking Dawn.

    Without spoiling it - I have to say that I thought it ended so perfectly!!

    I finished reading Eclipse for the second time yesterday and I'm onto Breaking Dawn again now. You'll feel sad when you finish Anna but then you can turn around and read them through again! They are SO much better the second time around!

    I have to agree that they get better each time you read them. I also find that each time I read through the series I tend to like a different book the best. This time New Moon was a fave but before that it was Breaking Dawn

    Has anyone read her other book? My inlaws are reading it atm and said its pretty good.

    Maybe we should petition her to write more Twilight, like a Facebook dedication page or something.

    ................or would that out us as Twilight nerds too much

    I don't mind being outed as a Twilight nerd!! You should so set it up!! Although... I don't know where she would go from the end of the book - it did end really well. I would hate for it to be spoilt.

    I haven't read her new book - I'm a little hesitant but I don't know why! Does this sound weird... I feel like I'm betraying Twilight by reading anything else of hers! Or anything else full stop! LOL

    Anna are you talking about The Host? I started reading it but it was way to involved not as easy to read! I will pick it up again after maybe my 5 read of the saga

    amy will have to read it tonight when I dont have monkey man hanging off me!

    ETA Nikki, I would like to see her write all the cullen families stories and then maybe a follow on for Jake!
