(Not) Judging Books by Their Covers

Self discovery, shmelf discovery. This is my reading adventure through the library, pure and simple.

Maybe I shouldn't say (type) this out loud (in silence, except for the clacking)...

but after watching the Mad TV (Cartoon Network with the kids) spoof of Twilight, I am feeling a strong desire to reimmerse (is that a word?) myself in the Twilight saga. I'm sure I like the books (have read them at least 4 times...in a two month span) more than I should, but darned if I can make myself feel any regret over it.
   Yes! I love the Twilight series!! I am over 30 and not ashamed to admit it! (My love for the series, not my age. Though come to think of it, I'm not ashamed of my age either.)

Just found this picture. Had to add it to my entry. Couldn't resist!
    I have to add this caveat upon further reflection. I love the series. I do not love the actors. Specifically, I do not drool over the male actors. C'mon ladies!, the kid who plays Jacob is young enough to be your son. Kind of creepy to see women my age and older walking through the mall with a boy on their chests. If you're not 18 or younger you have no business imagining yourself with the kid. Just because you're a woman and he's a boy doesn't make it less gross than a grown man thinking of a young girl. Just sayin'.
   Alright, enough of my cradle robber rant.

Lesson:

  Apparently, for me, Twilight doesn't get old. And Mad TV cartoons = Twilight nolstagia.
