Something fun to pass the time!

I know, I haven't blogged in forever, but I decided this might be a fun thing to do!

This is my website for everything NEW MOON, and they are doing a community reread of New Moon, or something like that. So, I decided to join in on the fun. Tonight, when I get home from work, I will indeed read Chapter 1 again, and than come back and edit this post to leave some of my thoughts with you. I figure I'll do it here rather than their website because...well, you people know me. Or at least...Laurel, you know me! :) haha

EDIT:
Ok, so I went back and read the 1st chapter. The whole time I was reading I was trying to find a quote that was my favorite, but there really wasn't one. Obviously, this chapter has a lot of necessary information in it, I think, that need to be in the film.

*I don't necessarily think Bella and Edward need to watch Romeo and Juliet, but it does bring up the fact that Edward refuses to live without Bella, and he would go to the Volturi if/when she is gone...it'll be interesting to see how they do that in the movie.

*I forgot how annoying Bella is. Seriously, you are 18 my friend, and yes, Edward is amazing, but you've let go of absolutely everything else in your life, and you are freaked out about 1 year in age difference. It's so silly....(that's not a movie related topic, but I had to point out how annoyed I was by Bella this time through).

*Definitely need to bring in the back story of the Volturi, which they hadn't even mentioned in Twilight. Does Carlisle talk about Volturi in Twilight...or later in New Moon? I can't remember. Either way, since the movie Twilight hadn't discussed them at all...they have lots of setting up to do prior to the party! Right?

That's really about all I could come up with. What about you??

I don't think they talk about the Volturi until book 2. I could be wrong but I don't have the books anymore to look back at for reference. As for how annoying Bella is, I totally agree. But do you think that our loathing of Kristen Stewart now plays a part in how much we dislike Bella? Edward needs a real woman that has a life, like me!
Love you. Love the post.
