.182 x so tired...
11/6/08 14:42I worked 5am to 11am today and didn't sleep that well (not to mention that long), so I'm really tired.
But I read Twilight. I really liked it. The first few chapters I was just going, "This had better make sense in the end or I'll be so upset." But after that I just got so absorbed I just couldn't stop reading. I read all but the first chapter yesterday (but then I also read chapter one of New Moon yesterday, and of Midnight Sun, which is Edward's side of Twilight). I bought New Moon and Eclipse today because they were surprisingly cheap at Target, and I'm probably going to finish them very, very soon. And then I'll be frustrated waiting for the movie and the next book.
Twilight is also a rare exception for me: I think it will make a very good movie. There are a lot of things the filmmakers could rearrange/change slightly to make it more cinematic without upsetting me. The little synopsis calls James, Laurent, and Victoria the "Cullens' mortal vampire enemies," which would bother me a little I'll admit, but I do think there's a lot of leeway for making the book a movie without ruining the best plot and character elements.
And Cedric is an awesome Edward, in my opinion.
(Although did anyone who's read the book and seen the trailer wonder why he looked normal when she was asking him how old he is in the clearing? Hmm.)
