Love Stories

Last Saturday a friend loaned me her copies of books 1 – 3 in a growing series by Stephenie Meyer. They are Twilight, New Moon, and Eclipse. The fourth, Breaking Dawn has recently been released and I expect to read it soon.

Tim is away in Norway this week and next and my parents and sister are away this week. My brother is home but I don’t see him much and I get pretty tired of doing the same stuff with Sara Ellen but don’t know what else to do. It’s so lonely without Tim working from home. The readings have been the most exciting thing going on for me this week and I definitley developed a crush on Edward, especially after seeing photos from the upcoming movie. The story is very seductive and addictive.
