Okay, I'm finished and now have read this whole thread. Wow, just wow. I loved the series. My husband started reading Twilight last night. I think his curiosity got the best of him. He wanted to see why none of the house work got done last week-LOL! I can see people's point about the death and intimate scenes, but we have to remember the intended audience of the books. She could have definitely made a PG and R rated version of them. Maybe if she gets writer's block some day she can expand the books for her adult readers.
I also think it's great when they can have midnight parties. Any book that gets kids up in the middle of the night wanting to buy it is worth the time for me. If I had kids and they wanted to do that, I'd make sure they were dressed and would make a real special night out of it.
I'm looking at the picture of the people for the Cullen cast and that is so not how I expected them to look-except Alice. Kristen Swan is how I pictured Rosalie with blond hair, but I can see her as Bella-but the clothes seem off in the trailer. I never pictured her with an armwrist whatever it is. I can't wait to see the movie though!
