hi everyone!

I'm a bit of a late comer. I started Twilight for the first time in late December. So far I have read them the following:

Twilight-3
New Moon- 3rd reading now
Eclipse-2
BD-1 (completely) (2x parts)
Midnight Sun draft-3

I'm also re-reading Wuthering Heights, I read it once years ago, but I have since been prompted to re-read it due to all the references in Eclipse and I have to say it puts a new spin on things :D

^^ooh, the spliced .pdf sounds interesting, how are you going to tackle the parts that can't match up perfectly to the book, like the prom remix?

I'll add such sections in after the published versions, in red, as alternative sections.

Some really good bits will be Edwards response to Rosalie's phone call, and things like that.

The explanation of Jacob's experience will be difficult, as it is not written like a story, but more like an empathy script.

Totally going on:

Twilight: 11
New Moon: 7
Eclipse: 7
Breaking Dawn: 4

You see..The others would be right up with Twi.. but it was the only one that Mum would let me bring overseas with me..But fingers crossed..She is sending the others over to me as we speak..*Crosss fingers tight*

I'm fairly new to the Twilight world!

I saw the movie in February and it prompted me to read the books and I read them all once in order (within about 2 weeks!)...and I immediately started re-reading them when I finished BD and I'm halfway through Eclipse now!

I'm officially hooked! I've never been so in love with a book/books before :o !

I read through the whole series once in about one week. I had borrowed twilight from a friend, but bought the other three books once I read it so I could see what happened next. once I was finished reading the whole series, I ended up loaning out New Moon to one of the managers at work (who was also borrowing twilight from my friend) and she accidentally left it in pensylvania, so for a while I was just reading Breaking Dawn and Eclipse. over and over (though I did tend to skip certain parts.) then I bought twilight for myself and read it about three more times. and now its being loaned out to one of my other co workers. so I think the count stands at:

Twilight~ 4
New Moon (my favourite)- working on third or fourth time
Eclipse- probably around 3 times
Breaking Dawn- probably about the same as Eclipse...

I lose track easily, though...so its give or take..

Okay... this is going to sound really, really, really bad... but

I've read the entire series like 11 times. But you can't really say I'v read New Moon 11 times completely... I have a habit of either wanting to be depressed or not wanting to be depressed... if I want to be depressed, I'll read the entire story. If I don't, I won't read the entire first part. I'll go straight to where Alice comes back. but still... I love the story... and I can't help myself. I got a stack of books for Christmas, and my brother-in-law (Shane's little brother) bet me that I won't have them all read by Christmas... but I keep picking up Twilight and the rest of the series and I start reading... it's bad... but It's my heroine... I know that's sad too...

The saga is exactly my brand of heroine... I need a fix everyday to survive and not go into withdrawl
