Quadrology
Following on from my last post regarding the books that Stephenie Meyer has written about Vampires, the first of which was a Christmas gift to me this year, I have discovered that there are three more!I devoured the first book finding myself almost obsessed with the hero of the story and while on holiday last week managed to procure the remaining three! I had thought it was a trilogy however found the third, in hardback, hiding in a stack of books yet to be displayed, and hastily made my way to the till with it!
I have now read the first three, Twilight, New Moon and Eclipse, the last of which I finished at 12.45am this morning. It had one of those last thirds that grips you all the way and had to be finished before I gave in to sleep.
The fourth and final book, Breaking Dawn, is sitting beside my bed waiting for me. I am holding off a little. I have read through them so quickly I am not in a hurry now for it to be over.
I am not going to review them here as I do not want to give too much away. I am no book reviewer and know I would say too much! But...if your interest is piqued then I highly recommend them. They have been a gripping but easy escape and I am ever grateful to my sister, and nephew, for their thoughtful gift that has provided me with a series of books I will always remember.
I will show these to Jane.... I'm sure she would like to get her teeth into these... :O)
ReplyDeleteReading is such a great pastime. You can escape any situation in a book. Even nicer if you escape your situation and enter the authors.
ReplyDeleteI love books like this.
Glad you are having pleasure.

Hey Tom! Well I have completed the lot now, I did think of calling the post Ravenous! I hope Jane finds she has a similar appetite! :0)
ReplyDeleteHey Bowledover! I miss the people in the book...well people isn't quite the right word in this case! Macs Niece is borrowing them but if you would like a read after please say.
Hey T-Bone, fine words of wisdom, really fine! Excellent holiday, will tell all when we speak/ email next.
