 Last night I attended the Women Who Read Are Dangerous Party hosted by my favorite local bookstore, Blue Willow Bookshop. I purchased a spot at this event at our elementary school auction party. We had a great time enjoying appetizers, drinks and book talk.
My favorite part of the night was when the owner, Valerie Koehler brought out a stack of books that she had picked out. These were some of her top picks for summer reading. The majority of the women had elementary age children and she had pulled a few books that she recommended for...

I don't recall ever being disappointed by any of her recommendations. So, I am adding this to my list of books to read and I will follow up with my own review afterwards. It recently received a lovely review in today's edition of USA Today, People Magazine and in the March issue of Redbook Magazine. From the Publisher

 Team Edward Fans may find it difficult to get through this book, knowing he is absent from the majority of this story. I became worried when Edward disappeared and wondered if the story could hold my interest until he returns. It did seem like a slower read to me but I think it was the absence of Edward and the anticipation for his return. Looking back after having read all the books, it makes more sense to focus on this side of the story. Bella and Jacob need time to develop their relationship. This friendship provides the conflict that continues throughout the series.
The book begins...

 Edward... need I say more? I loved the book and am currently obsessed with the movie. I had heard about the books from a friend a couple of years ago. She told me I would love it and wouldn't be able to put it down. It was on my list of books to read, and every time I saw it at the bookstore, I thought about it. I just never picked it up.
Two years later, I see the preview of the movie, and it is coming to theaters in one week. I get my hands on the book as fast as I can and start reading. I can't stop, for two weeks I stay up until 4:00 a.m. reading until the last of the series (4 books) has been read. It is that good!
