Consuming my time lately







These 3 books have been consuming my time, and my life, as of lately. I truly haven't read a series in a long time (Harry Potter included) that have been page turners as much as these. I feel like I am addicted! I cannot put them down! Those of you who have heard of them, they are written by Stephenie Meyer. A BYU Graduate, and mother of 3. They are also set in the Pacific Northwest, by Seattle. This is what enticed me to them. But, they are wonderful! I feel like a teenage girl reading them, whom her audience is based. They are so romantic to the point of being overly sappy. But, once I gave into the sappiness, I revel in it now. The only thing that's bad, is that once I get out the book world, and look around me, I kind of expect it to be the same. Jake and I are nothing like the characters in the book, but I somehow think that we should be! Emily, it is FANTASY! NOT REAL!!! Anyways, I am hurriedly trying to finish the third book, so I can get on with my life. But. . . if you want to read a scarey, romantic, feel like a kid again book, these will work! I highly recommend them. In fact, I can't wait for the fourth!

This is so funny- I just finished book three and know where you're coming from, I felt like I had to finish them all up so I could get back to reality. So, what are you going to start reading next?

Em,
I have been wanting to read those books. I am on the waiting list at the library, have been for about 3 months too. I think everyone in Utah wants to or is reading them!

I love reading books, and I have been looking for something good. I will start reading them right away. I love reading your blogs, you are so honest. I really miss you. If we lived closer, I know we would be best buds. And I think our girls are very similar.

I just went and checked the first book out. I haven't gotten too far into it. Hopefully everything else is going great for you.
