Am I the only one who doesn't get Twilight?

Oh no Jacksmama, this is terrible (muriel). You cannot have a t-shirt. no no no.

Why is she making you read book 3 when you are going to the cinema to see book 2?

Have you seen Twilight the movie? It's OK you know. Not at all great obviously but not dreadful. They do some running around and shit.

Nobody seems to want the books Gunpowder... they seem to be in the category of "I wouldn't have them as a gift"

Got only a few more pages into Eclipse. Gah. It really is the most incredible shit.
My gf who is dragging me to the movie rang last night to ask how far I was with the book... she may have caught on that I think it's awful and so is checking in to make sure I keep reading ... I will have to think of some way to get back at her. She had a horrifying idea when I spoke with her last night: they sell "Team Edward" T-shirts here, as well as black tees with silver writing on them saying "I love boys who sparkle" [vomit emoticon]. She think we should all buy one and wear them to New Moon. I told her absolutely not and she laughed. Then I claimed I was on a tight budget so couldn't afford to buy one. She laughed again and I suspect she may buy me one just to add to the torture. GAHHHH!!!!

Hot and hard would be better.

No, she's not in it til the end - Bella accidentally falls off the top of the mountain part way through book 2 and freezes to death with her arse in the air.

I keep hoping that one of the supernatural people will eat Bella and then do something more interesting.

She's in it to the end, isn't she?

Also, I think the second one is the best because Edward is hardly in it and Bella is slightly more interesting when she's wallowing in misery.
Much better than cloying lovey-doveyness.

Doesn't anyone else wonder why Edward isn't room temperature?

I am just starting eclipse, been a bit slow in the brain department and reading something cheesy and shit seems to cheer me up.

Would be interested in some decent vampire fiction though, if there are any recommendations.

Am after the final book, can't remember what it's called, The Worst One? Have 1 and 2 going spare if anyone wants them?

He's not just COLD he's also HARD as well, like rock/marble/stone/cheese.

And Bella's truck is SLOW.

Just on case you misses it.

lolol Gunpowder. You are absolutely right. Bella is forever forgetting her coat, that and putting her hair down.

No wonder the poor lass is forever falling over. I would be equally malco if I had to keep remembering my coat and who was hot, who was cold and what colour truck I drove.

I think we should cut her some slack.

Bella is no sort of heroine at all. She's like Fanny Price without the dynamism and sense of humour.

I couldn't read them and I luuurve a good, or even adequate bit of vampire fiction.

Anyone want a complete set of the books?

[hopeful]

I've had wine now

And am on page 155 of 367 of "Eclipse". It's Not Good.

But - apparently what's different about Bella is that she smells bad. To both Edward and Jacob.

Starting it tonight! Looking forward to it. Haven't seen the film......yet!

glad to see this
read the film reviews on amazon and it sounded AWFUL truly 'teen' and i dont 'do' teen stuff

"If the character you are reading about has had a little fall down and then is driving a big red truck then odds on it is BELLA.

UNLESS

the person who is driving the big red truck is cold, and then you know it is Edward."

no, if the person was cold, it would simply be Bella having forgotten to put a coat on. Edward would not have fallen down.

lol again.

oh do keep up Jacksmama.

Yes of course Bella is different.

She is clumsy and drives a big red truck.

Ditto for hot (it's jacob).

Its definitely wine o'clock here!

And I had totally forgotten that Isabelle is like a one-woman episode of Mr Tumble. Every, other, page.

I think, perhaps, this is her one personality trait.

And they say these books aren't thought provoking.

Jac-c-c-c-cob...

Oh. Bella is different????

What, like she smells or something?

Wine???

It's only 11:30 am here... too early for wine.

Go Team Edwwwwwward!!
Err Jacob, I meant.

I think.

@ dumb as a stump.

Bella is clumsy

Edward is cold

Jacob is hot

Clumsy is not the opposite of hot or cold. It is different. Bella is different.

I thought it was a pile of drivel. Especially the last book. In fact, it started OK but got worse with each book IMO.

Just spat wine at the computer Jacksmama!

Sorry, I meant to write Edward. But I got cold and the shiver made me stutter.

Or was that hot? Can't remember...

Aaaaahhhhh... thank you!!

Remind me again... which one is hot and which one is cold?
And which one is spineless and dumb as a stump? I forgot.
