Last Friday, I went with fellow FFIR Patsy Cooper and a group of U-Hall students to see Twilight, after meeting for dinner and a discussion about the book. Let me say upfront that I started the first book out of idle curiosity – and then couldn’t put it down. I read through the entire series in the span of about four days and then immediately re-read them. I was amazed by my obsession, however, because even as I read faster and faster to find out …

Plus it serves 5 people, so there’s sometimes enough left over for lunch the next day!
