Fall on Your Knees by Ann-Marie MacDonald. It's frightening, as in the themes explored, but I guess it's good. Nothing is what it appears to be, and everything has double meanings. Lots of issues.

Just finished Twilight and it was as good as everyone says it is. I'm thinking of starting New Moon today.

(I must admit to be a little dissapointed when I checked the Twilight film thread since the actors are not like what I imagined at all)

Just finished Lover Eternal. Gosh, it was so good. Better than the first one. Kept me up all night reading it. Going to start on the third one as soon as I catch up on my sleep. Can't wait!

Pardon me for hijacking this thread lately....

eliza bennet, you'll get used to the characters. Especially Robert Pattinson.

I have probably said this like five times in this thread, but I'm reading Out by Natsuo Kirino (finally!).
It is actually REALLY, REALLY good and I can't believe I have put off reading it for so long.
The writing/translation is absolutely amazing, but it is kind of gruesome for my taste lmao.
I actually had to put down the book a couple of times from barfing (I am very sensitive T^T), but other than that, it's great :]

P.S.,
I have yet to finish reading it.
I'm halfway through!

CLOUD NINE by LUANNE RICE.

It's the first ( I hope not the last novel I'll read!) novel I've read my life! It's a nice story though. It's about family ties and relationships. I'm still in the middle of the novel, though so I can't judge like a pro here. I'm a very slow-reader. Geee, I need to read fast you know. I bought like 2 novels and now it's 2 weeks and I barely reached half way of the novel...I get sleepy all the time..hmmm

Is he the actor playing Edward? His head is huge, not like the dreamy, sculpture like Edward I imagined while reading...

New Moon is going great though and I like Jacob character very much (I understand he is the heat to Edward's cool).
