“Oohhh! That’s a cute cover!” …That line is often what my friends hear me say when we go book shopping. I have bungled more than once because of this and ended up buying books with really crappy plots and even crappier dialogues because I was enchanted by their covers. Still, I couldn’t help it when I saw this cover;
Yes, I bought this book because of it’s cover and I’m sure glad I did. I confess, I was also intrigued by the lines I read at the back of the book. As I’ve said before, I have always been fascinated with vampire stories. And when it said the main character is in love with a vampire, I was even more intrigued. *LOL And so I started reading the book, and got hooked. However, I have always been a slow reader. I could be in the process of reading a single book in over a year without ever finishing it. I could make excuses about how I’m busy with work and how I have other hobbies that keep me equally busy, but then I would only be telling a “half-truth”. The truth is I am a hopeless procrastinator. Oh, well. And so, there I was, reading the book that I just bought because of its nice cover and the word “vampire” at the back and I could not help but laugh and cry along with the characters. I’m nuts, I know. But I can’t help it. I am in love with the Twilight saga now and I’m currently reading the second book, “New Moon”. And I am still hooked. I hope I finish reading this and the third one, “Eclipse”, before the fourth and last book, “Breaking Dawn”, comes out. And before the movie comes out! Oh, yes! There is a movie coming out. It’s about the first book. Well, that’s what they said.
I will finish New Moon soon…I hope. Wish me all the luck!!!
These are the rest of the books in the saga that have been published. The last one, “Breaking Dawn”, is not out yet. Equally nice covers, eh? LOL!
