something about vampires

If you know me at all, you know I'm a huge bookworm who loves nothing better than lounging around in a cozy little nest indulging myself in a great story.

My mom recently told me about "Twilight" the lastest book series craze to hit the nation since, well, since I don't even know. Most people I know (girls) have already read it and I can't believe I haven't heard about it prior.

She lent me the first 2 books Monday and they are not small; I'm talking 400+ words and decently small print. I started reading "Twilight" on Wednesday and finished it up today. I am addicted. It is damn near impossible to put down and as soon as I'm done writing this I'm going to curl up on the couch and start the 2nd one.

Other than escaping to a land of romance with a vampire, the thing that excites me most is the fact that a movie is already finished and will be released on December 12, 2008. Looking into the movie's cast, I can't believe how many actors/actresses are from some of my favorite TV shows & movies. For instance:

Cam Gigandet is playing James. He played Volchek on 'The OC' and definitely has that stereotypical bad boy image about him.
Elizabeth Reaser is playing Esme Cullen. She was Jane Doe/Rebecca on 'Grey's Anatomy.'
Billy Burke is playing Charlie. He was/is Jack, Bobby's older brother on 'My Boys.'
Nikki Reed is playing Rosalie. She was also on 'The OC' playing Sadie.

but the best one?

Robert Pattinson is playing Edward. Who is he, you ask? Well, he only played one of the greatest Quidditch players ever! Cedric Diggory :)

I can't wait :) Aaaaannndddd ... rumor has it the release date got moved up to November 21st after they pushed back Harry Potter and the HBP 9 months.

eeee!!
