taken from married to the sea
I updated the list of books I’ve read on the master list earlier this week. I’m a little ashamed to say that I’m averaging a pitiful ONE BOOK A MONTH in my quest to read 100 books (50 I’ve already read and 50 that I haven’t) and regrettably, three of those books are from the Twilight series, a.k.a. The Greatest Abomination in the History of Juvenile Literature. On that note, I’m about 100 pages away from being done with Breaking Dawn and have been for about two months. My excuse? I’m bored. I started reading the first book more than a year ago and have been painstakingly trudging through Stephenie Meyer’s hyperbolic, melodramatic vampiric ramblings ever since. I should have just given up, but one thing I won’t do is stop a book (er, or a series, for that matter) halfway through, no matter how bad it is.
Screw you, Stephenie Meyer. Screw you and your 30-something Mormon mother-of-three writing style.
Amazingly, my sister — who just started reading the series nine days ago and has both a 20-month-old and a three-month-old to care for during the day — is almost caught up with me. Just for the record, she’s five years further away from teenager-dom than I am.
What gives?
…
That said, I’m totally, totally, TOTALLY on Team Jacob. Edward is a pansy ass.
