Nicole, Trudy and I treated ourselves yesterday to big swish arm chairs and lots of candy.
Eye candy, that is.
Oh, dear I am sure 17 year old boys were NEVER that damn hot or romantic back in my day. I'm sure at that age they were still in the be "be mean to the one you like" phase. Seems things have changed.
The movie was awesome and filmed way better than Twilight, plus there were lots of buffed bod shirt-off scenes in this one. Feels slightly wrong to be lusting over teenagers, but I know every single other women that watches it will too. Just as I'm fairly certain many of those women went home to their middle-aged life and dreamt of one of the men, casting them self as the love interest. Hmm....or was that just me?
Jacob is HOT, but Edwards the one I'd be choosing. Putting aside all his controlling, manipulative, abusing tendencies - he really is the perfect guy. Of course, you will have to accept that look that he gives you, you don't interpret as love - it's probably hunger.
All that aside, it's a beautiful love story and I can't wait until my kids are old enough to read them. I think anything (within reason) that gets the teenagers reading and passionate about it, can only be a good thing.
I'm just about to start reading New Moon again, it's firmly tucked in my camping bag and all ready for some late night reading by lamp light. Yay!
