Some things are just meant to be.

She said the story came to her in a dream...she could not stop thinking and feeling and finally typing her dream into her laptop...it was a tiny little writing space and she said she was just compelled. And when she was choosing Edward... the Edward for the movie...Rob Pattinson was the last actor she saw and again she just simply knew...now that is a story.https://booksthoughtsadventures.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12270725992084535102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4925167395637847306.post-30611804187147188632010-06-25T10:03:09.167-04:002010-06-25T10:03:09.167-04:00So far so good Beverly.

Her writing can't be as bad as some folks make it out to be or she wouldn't be the phenomenon she is. Honestly, when reading the books, I haven't even noticed the stuff they're complaining about.June Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08570382577796763370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4925167395637847306.post-77029928303069438132010-06-25T07:44:53.784-04:002010-06-25T07:44:53.784-04:00I agree with you, too many people are so busy crit...I agree with you, too many people are so busy criticizing what she did wrong, they forget to notice all of the things she did right! I loved all four books, and the movies. <br /><br />As a writer, rather than wasting my energy on focusing on her errors, I plan to continue to analyze her success and learn from it!Joanne Brothwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11277805693436251841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4925167395637847306.post-54184389861553658262010-06-25T06:13:32.160-04:002010-06-25T06:13:32.160-04:00I enjoyed the books very much - I hope you enjoy t...I enjoyed the books very much - I hope you enjoy the movies and the books!Beverlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14058136830956475739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4925167395637847306.post-75987777065606359172010-06-24T14:18:42.791-04:002010-06-24T14:18:42.791-04:00Based on the previews I see on TV, it looks really...Based on the previews I see on TV, it looks really good! As soon as I see it, I'll read the book. I totally understand what you mean about New Moon. I wasn't crazy about the movie and I started the book months ago, but finally finished it. I ultimately liked it, but Twilight, Book One beats it by far.

This is why Twilight is so darn successful. I am like you, i was late on the twilight train and i saw the first movie and really liked it. Then i read the book and was disappointed that soo many things were left out. I am glad the Hardwick changed up the story a bit but still to omit huge chunks of the book was not good at all. I have never like New Moon (book or movie) because it was really slow. I cant wait for July 7th when Eclipse comes out in my country. So far initial reviews are saying that the movie is the best thus far!.Bookventureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16533767618250098740noreply@blogger.com
