My daughter didn't care for the fourth book either. She was eager to see the movie-and pretty much had planned not to like it. She was pleasantly surprised.<BR/>Luckily, our school had early release yesterday...so she only had to make it to noon! I'm just glad she's reading.<BR/><BR/>ShelleyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37809871.post-44840842715963146362008-11-22T09:53:00.000-06:002008-11-22T09:53:00.000-06:00ShelleyMy daughter is sixteen and her girlfriends ...Shelley<BR/><BR/>My daughter is sixteen and her girlfriends have all read the books--like Michelle's daughter mine did not like the 4th book at all but loved the other three. I read the first three and while my daughter is an Edwards fan I'm a Jacob fan :-) We've had some lively discussions--but I told her I just can't picture snuggling up to and kissing a chunk of ice--ugh!<BR/><BR/>She didn't go to the opening Thursday as she had a huge Spanish test on Friday--but the girls at school who read the books and went to the movie said they were disappointed because it left out some of their favorite scenes or cut them short. <BR/><BR/>I want to see the movie,and my daughter promised to go with me after she'd seen it first with her friends and then when the crowds die down, lol!<BR/><BR/><BR/>Marin<BR/>www.marinthomas.comMarin Thomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04337817734094294896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37809871.post-72445897789330991762008-11-22T09:38:00.000-06:002008-11-22T09:38:00.000-06:00Shelley, how fun!!!Totally different here. My daug...Shelley, how fun!!!<BR/><BR/>Totally different here. My daugther is torn. She hated the last book in the series, and then just to be sure it wasn't her, she went online and found other people who felt the way she did. <BR/><BR/>She's one who loved the series--even standing in a two hour line to get the first three books signed when the author came to town. She was also there at midnight when the 4th was released.<BR/><BR/>She wanted to go to the midnight show but I told her no--she has to get up at 5:30 AM anyway to go to school as she's an eighth grader who takes three ninth grade classes, two honors. <BR/><BR/>She'll probably see it. However, she's not in a rush. My youngest had to see HSM3 when that hit theaters.<BR/><BR/>As for me, I haven't seen an "adult" movie in a theater in years and I DVR most of the tv stuff.

The books were amazing to read even though I'm 19 and it is a Young Adult book I don't read YA because I'm more for full adult books especially romance. <BR/><BR/>I'm going to wait until next week to see the movie. I know it will be packed here in NYC at the movie theaters and I'm not to happy with crowds. Edward is cute but I think he is HOT!<BR/><BR/>LOL!<BR/><BR/>Phoebe Jordan<BR/><A HREF="http://talkaboutmyfavoriteauthors.blogspot.com" REL="nofollow">Talk About My Favorite Authors</A>Phoebe Jordanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16997797995893638815noreply@blogger.com
