Tonya,
I am so happy that I found the Twilight Group on Twitter. It is also very cool that you have a poster of Edward in your bedroom! I would love to but I don't think my husband would understand...lol. I'll have to settle for the Edward wallpaper on my pc.
I have read all 4 books (have not seen the movie yet) and am TOTALLY addicted to the series and Edward! I was finding it very frustrating up until now because I haven't found anyone into the series (who wasn't 15 years old)! I agree with everyone's posts about how it made them feel after reading the books. I am a 36 year old mother of 3 and I guess these books brought out the side in me that I haven't felt in a long time (and often miss)! Anyway, I'm glad to be a part of the group! Go Team Edward! :)

sigh. this is a bit embarassing, no?
My kids do the same thing. It doesn't help that I have a poster of Edward in my bedroom...

your favorite!"
Meanwhile I'm jonesing to go see it again!

Oh Peggy, I know how you feel. I'm also 36 w/ 2 kids and I totally understand what you are saying. If you watch the movie, make sure to see it at least twice. I didn't like it the first time. But that might have been because it was the midnight showing of the opening night and was horribly chaotic. The second time...I totally fell in love with it. The third time...even more. The fourth time...yes, even more.
BTW, my husband actually hung the person after loosing an argument. hahahhahaha

Welcome, Peggy -- you have definitely found a good place to express your Edward love! I think that we all REALLY understand!

I read the audio-book and have to admit that the narrator's voice was a disappointment. I eventually grew accustomed to it because the story was so compelling. I found myself listening to disc 7 (in the meadow) over and over.
Tonya (the Stampvamp) said:Hey! That's where I'm at too!!!
I, too, am staying up late reading this. It's so weird. I just want to be a part of that story. I wish it would never end...
However, I do have a question for everyone. Did anyone listen to the audiobook? I heard an excerpt but I could not tolerate the woman's voice. She would have ruined the entire novel!

Hi - I'm new to Twittermoms and Twitter Twilight. It's such a joy to know there are so many of us out here. I admit that I had not even heard of this series as my kids are still quite young ( 5 and 3). A girlfriend of mine, knowing I'm always game, asked me to go w/her to see the movie. We're both in our early 40's. Needless to say, I was HOOKED! I came home that night to find my husband (luckily) awake. I immediately dragged him to bed and let's just say . . . sigh . . .ahhhh . . . I then got the audiobook for a trip I was taking and became even more mesmerized. I'm very happy that Robert Pattinson is of legal age so I can shamelessly lust after him. Did anyone watch the oscars? Did you notice he was sitting behind Micky Rourke? When Sean Penn was giving his shout out to Micky, Robert was in the shot - I rewound (yeah DVR!) and paused - the look on his face was totally Edward - hypnotic, incredibily sexy, with a slight, somewhat knowing little smile playing around his lips. YUMMO!! I did mention the lusting was shameless, didn't I?

I'm rereading the entire series for like the 7th time. I can't stop myself. I've NEVER acted this way with a book before. The characters just all seem so real...then again, when I read, it's like I'm seeing a movie in my head. I dont know about any of you, but when I was reading Twilight, I had this image in my head of what Edward looked like, and then when my husband told me who was playing him in the movie, I about died. I've loved RP since Harry Potter, and was actually picturing Edward in my head as him as I was reading it...lol. While I love Twilight, my fave in the series is Eclipse...I can't explain it, I just love it :)

ROTFLMAO!!!! That's sooooo how I feel. I occasionally feel bad because of my shameless lusting, and apologize to my hubs for it. He laughs about it and says I can lust about whomever I want, so long as he gets to "reap the benefits"! I sooo know how you feel :)

oshun55...my daughter is 2, and she always sees me with Twilight, or some tabloid magazine with RP on the front cover. The other day I was reading Twilight (for like the five millionth time!), and she looks at me and goes, "mommy, that's your vampire, right?" I about fell off the couch!! Apparently my husband had told her about mommy's "Vampire", lol. Kids!

I have yet to buy this book, I have the other three, just not this one. I so want to read it again, but since I don't have it I started over again with New Moon. Note: I borrowed the whole set from a friend the first time around.

You can send some of that Eternal Damnation my way!!!
oshun55 said:Lol at the burning at the stake...
On Facebook I sent some Twilight friends a Twilight gift called "Eternal Damnation" (a picture of Edward that said "Eternal damnation never looked so good) and other people were like huh? eternal damnation?... you're going to hell! People need to lighten up and let us grown ladies have our fiction-based fun!
Tonya (the Stampvamp) said:Ha! That might be pretty interesting! I'm originally from a small town too and I can leave you rest assured there would be burning at the stake....lol
MAbeo said:I have thought it would be fun to create a "twilight vamp moms" group in my area. Where moms can get together and talk about the books, but also use their inspiration to find the sexy vamp inside all of us! Not sure if I have the balls to pull something like that off in such a small town though lol, they may run me outta town heh.

Can somebody here help a dummy out? LOL, I have read this once and am now listening to the audiobook but I am still confused over something. I am at the part now where James and Bella are in the ballet studio. James is talking about Alice. I can't follow it on the audiobook very well. Can someone explain to me the sequence or progression of Alice becoming a vamp? I don't understand what James is saying about someone old putting her in the mental ward and her visions and what he had to do with it. I know that's dumb but it's been bothering me all day.

From my understanding, Alice was psychic before becoming a vampire, but her parents had her committed to an asylum because they didn't know what to do with her, and in the early 1900's, that's what you did. So, she was in the asylum and a doctor there, who was a vampire, grew fond of her. The reason she didn't remember any of her human life was because she was kept in a dark room all the time, and I'm assuming she was given meds to keep her barely conscious. I don't know how James came to know about this, but he found out about Alice and decided to kill her. I'm assuming to spite the vampire doctor because he was being nice to her rather than using her as food. But, the vamp doc took her from the asylum and bit her, to keep James from hurting her. Then, since she wasn't a human anymore, he was no longer interested. Then, he killed the vamp doc. But this is just my interpretation. :)
