I never read the book - Ken read the first one and then gave it back to the person who loaned it, and told me not to bother. So, we Netflixed the movie once it came out. It was total dreck. For the first half hour, I was like, "Oh good grief - he's a vampire. We already know that's what the movie is about, so please get to it already." But, my real annoyance was when he stepped into the sun. I totally expected him to melt or whatever.... but, glitter?!?!
At that moment, the entire story lost all respect from me.
Although, I wished I had invested in glitter body spray, because I imagine that stuff was selling by the case after that.
I will admit though, that I would have found it remotely romantic when I was 12. I would have loved a glittery guy back then.
So, thankfully, my honey took one for the team and spent the time reading the first book so I will never have to waste the time on it. I still want my two hours back from watching the film.
