Following my heart, one book at a time...
So while I gear up for my Last Sacrifice (Vampire Academy) review (I’ve been in mourning and needed to recover. I miss the book!! I MISS IT!), I’ve decided to give away my own copy, of the very first book that hooked me into this genre forever, and gave me the same languishing ache, once I knew it was over.
My copy of Twilight. It’s used. But it’s loaded with my good “vampire-love” energy. I can still feel it vibrating with my emotional overload that I transfused it with as I read it 😉
Whoa this is news!! I had no idea Stephenie Meyer was releasing anything more for the Twilight Saga, so I’m stoked!!
The book “The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner: An Eclipse Novella” will be from the perspective of a “newborn” (in this case, Bree’s transition). It will be available June 5th (and with each purchase, $1 will be donated to the Red Cross). Amazon already has it on sale for pre-order (sale price of $7.69). It will also be available to read for free on http://www.breetanner.com from June 7th to July 5th (with an option to donate to the Red Cross online too!)
Sort of old news for some of you, but I have just found out that the book "The Host" will be made into a movie! Check out the report on Variety.com
Here’s a fun list at the Examiner.com with the chosen "dream cast" for the Host movie as voted by their readers (note: this is NOT the official cast of the actual movie. Just a fun "dream cast" if you will…)
In other news, I read in one of her interviews that she intends on making The Host, a trilogy. Wikipedia sites:
The Host: A Novel
I think it’s quite obvious by now, from my recent posts, that I LOVED this book. At first, I found it slow to start, and wondered if I’d ever care about where the story was going. However, a quarter of the way through I found it hard to put down, and stayed up easily past midnight to continue reading. And then, there were the tears. The free-flowing, hardest I’ve ever cried while reading, honest to goodness, tears (that I unsuccessfully tried to hide from my husband, who raised an eyebrow at my rare condition). The puffy red eyes, streaky face, and sniffling were much too obvious, and could not be blamed on allergies 😉
Damn Stephenie Meyer and her “The Host”!!! I can’t believe I’m crying again over a book (and one of hers, again, no less!)
Oh the shame…my husband was wondering why I was taking so long in the bathroom, and really, how long can I actually hide in there? I had to come out, and face the real world all puffy face and sniffling, where no amount of cold water could wash away the evidence.
What, do you think I’m actually giving away a spoiler? Fear not. The only spoiler I can guarantee is that you will cry. I don’t even know how it ends, since I can’t even reach the end yet, ’cause I’m sobbing too hard to be able to read anything!
