After our picnic of crab dip, Cobb salad and fruit cup, Louisa told us how the book "Twilight" was born. Stephenie Meyer had a very vivid dream about two people having an intense conversation in a meadow in the woods, one was your average girl and the other a fantastically beautiful, sparkly vampire and they were falling in love. You read the book so you know how it all turns out, or do you. You'll need to read the entire series to find out!
Louisa asked us several questions which elicit responses from everyone. We discussed how Meyer’s vampires had traits different than those of Hollywood and no one was particularly interested in living forever. Most liked the book. I though it was a great book for teenagers, it was a simple read which encouraged book reading and it also introduced abstinence in a different light.
“Twilight, again. Another ending. No matter how perfect the day is, it always has to end.“(Edward) and thus our meeting concluded.
Next month we will meet at Linda’s house sans her porches.(you had to be there) We will read "Scarlett: the Sequel to Gone with the Wind" by Alexandra Ripley and meet on the Fourth Thursday - August 26. We will also need to set up a new schedule for next year, so think about what month you want to host and what book you would like to introduce.
Don’t forget Berkeley Bells will be performing at War Memorial Park on August 19 at 7:00.
