I’m so far behind in my reading for this blog. I have the following novels in my to-be-read pile:
Sins Of The Father by Angela Benson
What The Bayou Saw by Patti Lacy
and a Robin Jones Gunn novel – can’t remember the title to that one.
As you know, I do read some secular fiction occasionally. I couldn’t resist starting New Moon (the second in the Twilight Series). I read the first one awhile back, and I purchased the whole set since I enjoyed the first one so much. I enjoyed New Moon until about the last 1/3 of it, and I doubt I’ll finish it word by word. I’ll probably skim the rest. Didn’t find it overall as intriguing as Twilight. My eyes started glazing over around the time they made the trip to Italy to save Edward. Don’t know when I’ll get around to reading the other two books in the series. After I’ve read them all, I’ll probably do a giveaway. I seldom keep books once I’ve read them.
I’m hard at work on a manuscript, plus, I’m getting a proposal together with three other authors. My plate is so full, don’t know how I’m going to do all that needs to get done!
Don’t worry you’re not the only one that didn’t enjoy New Moon as much as Twilight. I LOVE the series but New Moon is my least favorite, personally I like the love story of Edward and Bella and New Moon was pretty much about Bella and Jacob. Eclipse is better than New Moon, then comes Breaking Dawn. Twilight is still my favorite though!
Thank YOU for stopping by my blog! Have you seen the Twilight movie? I liked it but thought it could have been much better. New Moon looks like it will be really good. It’s strange, I’ll probably like New Moon the movie better than Twilight the movie!
Best wishes with your new books!!!
Yep, saw the movie. I blogged about it here. Just read the SECOND half of this blog post if you want to know what I thought about it:
