Happy Birthday Tanya!!!!

Today is my friend Tanya's birthday. I am leaving in a few minutes to go and join them on a patio downtown. It is a little cool and windy, but should be nice.

I got her three books for her birthday (don't worry! She won't be reading this today):

  1. The Book Thief
  2. Twilight
  3. New Moon
I am so in love with Edward Cullen right now that if I could figure out how to make myself a fictional character and join him in the story, I would leave my husband. Except that I may not have a shot again Bella...

I know that they are silly teen romances, but at least it is better than Sweet Valley High - which I read as a preteen. The writing isn't strong, but the story is intriguing. And it takes you back to that obsessive, all encompassing first love. Completely unrealistic, but good summer escapist reading.

I hope she enjoys them!

I don't think I have met one woman yet that is not completely obsessed with Edward Cullen (myself included). I agree with you that the series is a great summer escape and very addictive.
I recommend the series to anyone who wants to get so involved in a book that you can't put it down.
If you enjoyed the Twilight series I just picked up a new book called "Evermore" by Alyson Noel - vert similar.

Thanks! I will have to check it out... I have a date already (with a girlfriend) to see New Moon in November - she is a Jake fan from the trailer. We even have her niece coming with us as cover. Or maybe if there is a midnight show we could attend with all of the other women over 21 who love Edward.

While we're tackling the subject of Patio and Birthday | A Blog for Toronto Moms | TorontoMommy.com, Put together a collection of mismatched chairs and paint them a single colour preferably with some remaining outdoor paint, for continuity. They will serve you well around the dinning table. If you opt to go with the coffee table angle, then place garden benches with pillows and throw blankets around them.
