boyohboyohboy replied: Kimberly! I am so glad I am not alone! I was starting to think I was a pedophile! although Edward is like 100yrs old!

I am a closet reader and I am just watching the movies now!

kimberley replied: LOL i believe Edie is a fan too, so we are not alone

i have read all the books at least 10 times. the movies are okay but the Edward in my head is wayyy hotter lol

boyohboyohboy replied:
absolutely! Did you watch them on Oprah yesterday?
I was so amazed that Jakob and Bella seem so down to earth but Edward is a little full of himself!
how could he not be really!

I to have read and re read the books. I like them so much better then the movies, I felt the movies left alot of the books out!

ok so maybe we are not pediphiles but cougers!

mckayleesmom replied: Ok..I don't read the books, but is Edward that Pattenson guy? If so I don't see the appeal....he has a huge forehead. He is not good looking to me at all. The Taylor kid is kind of cute.

boyohboyohboy replied:
you really should read the books. I dont normally read vampire books its not my cup of tea, but this is different its more "romeo and juilet"
Its what he says and does that endears him to you...

its not gorey either.

I totally recommend them.
they were saying on oprah yesterday that its rekindling older womens marriages because it reminds you of how you felt with your first love and how it feels to be so in love..

I keep telling my husband he is my edward!

kimberley replied:
that is so sweet!

and ITA that they left out too much of the "book" Edward. he seems arrogant in the movies but he's not at all in the books.

i can live with cougar

boyohboyohboy replied: Kimberly I hope more of these twilight fans come out of the wood work or I am going to feel dumb!

PrairieMom replied:
yeah, he is, but The actor does nothing for me, Its Edward himself that makes me all swooney.


Don't we all just long for that perfect fairy tale love ? Dh is great... but he could never love me like Edward loves Bella...

Our Lil' Family replied: Well I'm team Carlisle!!!!!!!!! OMG he is so hotttt!
I agree, I think Rob Pattinson is ok, but Edward is over the moon romantic and in love with Bella....yeah, I'm a junkie too!

boyohboyohboy replied: oh thank goodness! I should have come out of the closet sooner!

MoonMama replied: BOTH!!

Oh trust me your not alone my Twi-session is BAD!!

MoonMama replied:
I REFUSE to be a cougar!!!! I'm not that much older then Taylor & Rob!

kimberley replied:
lol ditto!!!

Calimama replied: Love the books!

3xsthefun replied: Team Edward! I think Carlisle is nice looking also!

I love the books and the movies.

Maddie&EthansMom replied: Okay, I was counting down the DAYS til Taylor Lautner turned 18 so I didn't feel like such a pedophile! That kid is HOOOOOOOOTTTTT!!!!!

But, I'm totally Team Edward. I just don't care for the Edward in the movies. Or the Bella.

I really hate the movies, tbh. I wish I never would have watched them.

But yeah, Carlisle is soooo hot!!

5littleladies replied: Team Edward!!!! Love him in the books *sigh* and I gotta admit, I love him in the movies.

And while the movies are dismal compared to the books I 'm excited to see the next one. I'm a junkie.

And yeah, Carlisle? Love him!!

kimberley replied: i think the best part of the movies was Taylor's abs!!

coasterqueen replied: I can tell by this thread I must be REALLY missing out. I say other because I've not watched the movies nor read the books.

MomToJade&Jordan replied: I am not that obsessed, but I have read the books and seen the movies. I have been all about Team Jacob since I read the books.

Now the Sookie Stackhouse novels? That is a WHOLE different story. I am obsessed and have read the books and watch the show. Team Eric all the way

MoonMama replied:

Aimee your not alone there.

Even my mom said "Bella needs to pick Jacob, that wolf is a little hottie!"

Our Lil' Family replied:
I'm reading the first one now. Sadly though, I don't have HBO so no show for me!

boyohboyohboy replied:
I need a new set of books to read, what are these about?

kimberley replied: the mortal instrument series by cassandra clare wasn't bad either.

and the new twilight book should be out in june... it's eclipse from Bree's perspective.

PrairieMom replied:
A new twilight book!?!?!?!?!?!

Ok, but let me just say, that it officially annoys me when authors change main characters around like that. I wonder if I will like it?

what are the snookie books? I haven't heard of them. We don't have Cable, so no HBO for me. can you get the show on netflix?

Our Lil' Family replied: The Sookie Stackhouse series is by Charlaine Harris:
http://www.charlaineharris.com/
They are based in LA....kinda cool for me to read. I'm only on book 1 though. The HBO series is called True Blood....I've never seen any episodes though.

Calimama replied: I have the set of Sookie Stackhouse and I didn't like them. I got past book 2 and lost interest.

5littleladies replied:
Hmm.....not sure how I feel about this since I am really mad still that she hasn't finished Midnight Sun.

If you don't know what I'm talking about here is a link to it- http://www.stepheniemeyer.com/pdf/midnight...tial_draft4.pdf
She started Twilight from Edwards point of view, the draft got leaked, and she got really upset about it and hasn't finished it.

Read it if you will-it is really good, but unfinished and therefore frustrating!

ZandersMama replied:
Love love LOVE true blood

MomToJade&Jordan replied: Sorry guys 9 hour shift today so this is the first chance I have been able to get on. The Sookie Stackhouse books are about this waitress who seem to get into all sorts of trouble. Mostly with Vampires The show is great and yes Tara you can currenlty rent Season 1 from Netflix. Or if I can figure out how to burn DVDs on this computer I have the first season and I can burn you some copies

kimberley replied:
i re-typed and printed midnight sun

my2monkeyboys replied: I really think Edward in the movie is hot... real life, not so much. Taylor is HOT either way, but he's not as manly to me in the movie... he needs to get more aggressive IMO. He's too sweet. So Edward wins me over. Plus I just have a thing for vampires... I'd be a 'fangbanger' no doubt!
I haven't read any of the books, but I loved the first movie. The second one I was a little disappointed. The girl playing Bella just was lifeless. No real emotion.

As for True Blood, I LOVE LOVE that show... it's a little over-the-top and sometimes Sookie just really needs to quit whining, but I love it. I think Bill is hot, too. And Sam. He could be my pet any day.

I haven't read any of the Sookie books, either. I am planning on picking up all of the Twilight and Sookie books soon.

MoonMama replied:
I found a printable copy online (made sure it was th exact same). I can try to dig it up if anyone needs.

PrairieMom replied:
ok, well, you know what I am going to be doing for the next little bit...

My3LilMonkeys replied: I am a big fan of the books, not so much the movies. I am one of those annoying people who insists no movies is ever as good as the book it is based on.

I'm not really on either team....I like both Edward and Jacob, so I'd be happy either way.

Hillbilly Housewife replied: I've seen Pattinson in other movies, he's an uggo, as far as I'm concerned.

Jacob Black, on the other hand.... He's my jailbait hottie. I'd take a couple years for him.
