Maybe I am kind of old to get on the bandwagon seeing as it is mostly directed to teenagers. But I recently read the book after watching the movie trailer and honestly enjoyed, I really am a sucker for any kind of romance story and the fact that there are vampires is just an added bonus to me. So now I have to get my hands on the other three books and read those as well.
But the point in writing about it today is because the movie just came out this weekend and Jason and I went to watch it Saturday. I have to say that I actually liked it quite a bit and they didn’t butcher the story from the first book too bad like so many other books to movies out there. My husband didn’t like though but in all fairness I didn’t expect him, h is very picky about the movies he likes and those tend to be more of the realm of sci-fi and any kind of romance is purely optional. I do think they did a good job casting the film especially Edward, Rob Pattinson is definitely hot, however after watching Peter Facinelli back when I was teenager in “Can’t Hardly Wait” I just don’t think the blonde hair suits him though he did a good job in the role of Carlisle. I can’t wait to see if they make films of the other three books, hopefully they will.
We also picked up the soundtrack for it a few weeks ago when it came out and I absolutely loved the two new Paramore songs on it “Decode” and “I Caught Myself”. But I have discovered that I like anything by them but those were my favorite songs on the soundtrack. Here is the video for “Decode”
