My Little Twilight Story........What's Yours?
Here's my little Twilight Story (the short version of course, couldn't we all go on and on and on about Twilight).......
What's your little Twilight story???
My little Twilight Story.....
A friend of mine had been trying to get me to read the books. I didn't think I'd like them. I'm 34 and because the books are in the "teen" or
"young adult" section I didn't think it would keep my attention. I was
so wrong. I had surgery on my neck last year (titanium plates now hold
my neck together - don't ask - long yucky story) so while I had a month
of being off work to kill I started reading the books. Since I was
sleeping a lot and stuff it took me all month to read the four books,
and it really changed me. Believe me, at 34 I was so jaded I never
would of thought there'd be any way these books would phase me the way
it has. It was so refreshing to read a story that sparked so much hope.
Within these books, the story, the characters was a huge reminder of
the true meanings of love and loyalty and friendship and family....all
forms of what family means.
I remember that the last week I was home I was in the middle of
BD and I had to start venturing out into the world. So I went to see my
family/friends and to the store, etc. I hated putting down the book. As
I told my boyfriend at the time (now my husband) "When I put down this
book I feel like all my friends are in there waiting for me to come out
and play". That was how I felt. But the street lights come on (for
those of you old enough to know what I mean by that) and you have to
leave make-believe behind for a little while. I got through my recovery
fine, back to work, got married to my best friend, have wonderful
friends and family.......but almost every day, just for a little while,
weather it's coming to this website or re-reading the books (which I'm
in a slow constant flux of doing all the time) I get to visit my
friends in Forks in make-believe world for a little while.

You have hit the nail on the head with this Jennifer. My story started last year. I watched the movie Twilight on DVD for the first time last year but never really understood from that what all the fuss was about, or the thing with Robert Pattinson, sure hes cute, but I just didnt get it.
Then in April this year, after several friends telling me how good the books were, I gave into my curiousity and bought the first book. Well......that was it....... 2 days it took me to read it, then I rushed out to by New Moon and Eclipse. All of a sudden my life had been turned on its head, and I was in love with Edward Cullen! I re-watched Twilight and saw Rob in a whole new light........WOW he is stunning! All in all it took me 3 weeks to read all 4 books, I have also just read Midnight Sun which has fuelled my obsession for Edward/Rob. I went to see Eclipse last week and loved it and Im just in the middle of reading Eclipse also.
I love my world of Twilight and so glad I have people like you to share it with
