Ola--I really appreciated how this book was written and how different it was, but I couldn't get into it as much as I expected to. It was so hyped up that I think I'm going to re-read it in a few years when I'll appreciate it more. Don't be intimidated by the size--it reads quickly!

Shawna, those books by Lemony Snicket - are they from the "Series of Unfortunate Events"?

Yes, and I unexpectedly LOVE them! I wish they would have been around when I was a lot younger.

I remember my niece talking about the series when she was in high school. She made an "insider" comment that got both her mom and dad laughing - so of course I wanted to know what it was all about. "Oh, it's just some books that Sarah's reading" was the initial response. But it was obvious that her folks had picked them up and read them, too!

I read this too & it left me wanting more! It was interesting to read things from Edwards view.

I wanted more too! If it would have had the chance to become an entire book, I think I would have liked it more than Twilight itself!
