What did you think of Twilight?

I read Twilight because of all the hype and the fact that everyone seemed to be reading it. I was disappointed at first but by the end I was enjoying it. I haven't read the others. What do you think of the series?

I started reading it- beccause my 19 year old asked me too- I read all the Harry Potter books with my 21 year old! I thought #1 was a bit bland- I am definately enjoying #2 a lot more goes on- not so slow!

I enjoyed reading about London during Dickens'time and the fact it was semi-autobiographical made it extremely interesting. It is a very long book though, probably should count for two.

12. Lipstick Jungle by Candace Bushnell

Hmmm - I must not have been paying attention to my English teachers (I'm sure one would have mentioned it at some point). I didn't know D.C. was semi-autobiographical. Now, I'm very much interested in digging in!

Hi Kelli - I loved The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. This one is not scheduled to be released in the US till July 28th and I can't wait to read it. Assuming you read the first one, how does this one compare??

Hi. I loved both of them. The Girl Who Played with Fire is a new story but most of the same characters so it is similar in style but all new adventures. If you liked the first one, you will enjoy the second as well. I can't wait for the third and final one.

27. Call the Midwife by Jennifer Worth

What did you think of Sundays at Tiffany's? I have it on my to-read list and I've requested it from the library. I've read the description of the book online and it seems like it will be a good read.

I enjoyed it. I'd recommend it. It's chiclit and light but a good quick read. Have you read either Suzanne's Letters for Nicholas or Sam's Letters for Jennifer? They are both good too. All three are so different from James Patterson's other books.

You will definitely like the others then.
