I have to agree, I read the series too, and now my ds is reading it cause it's his girl friends favorite and he is tired of her and I talking about it and him not getting it. LOL Book two does drag, but the others go faster. I did hate to see it end.

THANKS everybody for the Book Suggestions . I could read from now until the end of time and probably not finish all of them!

My Book Club is doing "Reading Lolita in Tehran" this month, anybody read that? Of course I bought it already but haven't started it (you know me - I think just buying the books will make me more intelligent - I always forget that you have to actually read them).

I am also reading "Pride and Prejudice" since several people think you have to read Jane Austiin to actually enjoy life. (I am on chapter 10 so far I'm not sure I get it). Reading P&P and Running a 5K are my New Years Resolutions.

I would recommend "Angry Housewives Eatiing Bon Bons", "My Sister's Keeper" (very sad and you WILL hate me for recommendiing it) and the Mitford/Father Tim Books.

As for Travel Club plans: Lucy you know we would go with you to Mexico (Illegal Activities or Not)! However, Lucy and Crick thought my son might notice if I missed his High School graduation in order to attend Mikestock and since it is a proud moment for a mom to have her oldest graduate I better skip South Bend this year .

If you like Twilight, you'll love christine feehan....

I must say, I was bored and mostly fed up with it until book 4......book 4 (or the resolution of the story) showcases in my mind, one of the greatest talents ever!

I can usually outwit any book...predict plot twists etc... It is few and far between, that I ever have a book series keep me guessing. Each of the prior 3 and even most of the 4th, adds new problems to the original conflict until it seems impossible to resolve them all, let alone satisfactorily! Book 4 delivers in a MAJOR WAY.

The movie counts as more of a long book ad/promo/trailer in my opinion.....
