| You absolutely should!You won't be dissapointed. To be honest, I knew nothing of the books until I was taken to see the movie. I then went home and picked up book 2 from where the movie left off (skipping book 1 all together) and it took me 3 days to read the last 3 books! Stephenie Meyer did a great job with these books. Sucked me right in, and I don't even bat an eye at books with topics like this! I'm a non-fiction kinds girl traditionally. It helps that Robert Pattinson played Edward Cullen. I've been familiar with him since he began in Indie films. |

YT 2000 Club Member | I read the books and loved them! I love books that pull you in and have you captivated till the very end, and that is what the Twilight books did for meI like how she changed some of the Vampire lore to make them possible to actually live among us too, Very different from Ann Rice's Vampires. I could visualize everything as I read it, almost like I was the character myself, it was like having my own movie playing in my head I have yet to see the movie, I am waiting for my husband to get a night off so we can go, but with the was the Dock's been, it looks like I might miss my chance seeing it in theaters, I am most likely going to have to wait till it's out on DVD

| ?!? No way, go grab a girlfriend or go alone, it's worth seeing in the theatres first! Then when it comes out on DVD, get it and watch it with the hubby! |

| oh i love the books! i would say i have a slight obsession since i have read them each about 10 times and read fanfiction. i haven't seen the movie yet. i can't decide if i think it will ruin the book or not. hmmm. i should just go see it.

| Normally I'd be right there with you on a movie spoiling the book in the way of not measuring up, BUT, I guarantee that will not be the case here. Go see the movie in theatres while it's still there. I was with a few avid readers of the saga and they each have gone back at least once again after. |

| Oh my love, Twilight (my heart flutters just hearing the name). I have fallen in love with Twilight. I seriously didn't think I'd like it, I was thinking I'd go in to see the movie and it'd be one of those ones where you can't wait for it to end. OMG, I LOVED IT! I didn't want it to EVER end. I want to go back like 50 million times and watch it. I'm now starting to read the books since so many people said they're different. I've noticed that the book is different and I'm only on chapter 5. It's definitely a must have once it comes out on DVD, I'll be there first thing in the morning the day it comes out. I'm also in a happy lovely relationship with the man of my dreams but I want a Edward and my boyfriend gets reminded of this pretty much everyday.

| For those of you who really like Robert Pattinson as an actor, and not just his portrayal of Edward Cullen in Twilight, should go see some of his other films. He's a rather diverse actor and it's fun to watch him grow. He should be rather pleased with himself as far as his career goes! |

| He is also a really good singer. My sister bought me the Twilight soundtrack and he sings a song on it...all I can say is:

Donating YT 7000 Club Member | I feel so out of place since Twilight has taken over the world! I've never even picked up the book! My mom has - she loves it. I suppose I should too, eh? My 2 best friends are quite obsessed..it's borderline scary sometimes. =P

| Come to the dark side Megan...we have cookies! Only pick up the books if you don't mind finding yourself reading it everywhere you go! Once you begin, you're not satisfied to put them down for long. |
