Fi. Posted July 3, 2009 Posted July 3, 2009 It's strange but neither amazon or Waterstones have a paperback version online (although amazon does have used copies!) Wow, that's weird - the version I pre-ordered has disappeared but it's still listed in my orders in the 'my account' section and has a despatch date August 5th. Quote
Charm Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 I'm up to the part in Breaking Dawn where its mainly Jacob's story. He's just met a heavily pregnant Bella. God, Edward is in so much pain! It is torture to read! I really hope this doesn't continue, I really don't think I could take it! Quote
BookBee8 Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 Oh I wish I could read them all again for the first time. I read them so quickly, I regret not taking my time more, hehe. It's just not the same after that! Quote
Nollaig Posted July 6, 2009 Author Posted July 6, 2009 For what??? Tell me!! The birth. That doesn't spoil anything you don't know. Quote
Charm Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 The birth. That doesn't spoil anything you don't know. Now you're going all cryptic on me Are you saying it gets worse?? Quote
Nollaig Posted July 6, 2009 Author Posted July 6, 2009 Well, lets just say there's a reason why I said Kookie maybe shouldn't read Breaking Dawn just yet. Quote
Peacefield Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Does it involve a bed? Unfortunately all these books are seriously bed-lacking, Rawr . You need to pull yourself together, Charm!! Just remain calm and squint if you have to during the unpleasant bits . You'll be fine . Quote
Nollaig Posted July 7, 2009 Author Posted July 7, 2009 Does it involve a bed? Charm's already past the bedrocking, of which there is nothing graphic. Omg, I bit a pillow, lololololol. I know human men who could do better than Edward. Sorry. I'll stop. Quote
Peacefield Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Omg, I bit a pillow, lololololol. I know human men who could do better than Edward. Sorry. I'll stop. Roxi! Maybe Charm should set up an appointment with the fan fiction department if she feels it's necessary . Quote
Rosalind Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 My brothers girlfriend came over last saturday and was "oh my god oh my god, that's a great book thanks for getting it for me" I had to break the news to her that it's 1 out of 4 and that the 4th isn't even translated yet to dutch. She didn't like that. She's made a 'date' with me to go to see new moon when it's released it the cinema. At least this time I don't have to go alone Quote
frankie Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Step away from the Spoilers Charm!! Read the book! (In the meantime I have to scurry off meself because I still have Eclipse and Breaking Dawn to read) Quote
Charm Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Roxi! Maybe Charm should set up an appointment with the fan fiction department if she feels it's necessary . I may need an appointment with my therapist instead Step away from the Spoilers Charm!! Now you know I don't resist spoilers , besides Roxi's right, I'm way past that bit. Frankie do NOT read this. What happens to the baby?????And are Bella and Edward still together at the end??? ... and no 'it will spoil it Charm' cr*p! These books will be the death of me Quote
Nollaig Posted July 7, 2009 Author Posted July 7, 2009 Charm and Frankie, I'm actually disturbed. You are both mature, sensible women. And here you are giggling like schoolgirls over zipping through the Twilight series. I knew it was a threat to civilisation but man, I underestimated it. Also, nothing happens to the baby, it's just so disgusting it would give Mo Hayder a run for her money. Very, very minor spoiler, all it will do it reassure AND scare you at the same time. No details. Quote
Stephanie2008 Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 about the bed action. It's alright to be graphic towards violence but don't let any beds rock. Quote
Nollaig Posted July 7, 2009 Author Posted July 7, 2009 God. Seriously. The violence would do more damage to a child than some bedrocking. Seriously. It made *me* cringe, and I don't actually cringe. Quote
Peacefield Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 :clapping:Let's hear it for bedrocking! Come on, Stephenie Meyer, get with the program!! Quote
Stephanie2008 Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Yeah I totally agree. Most books (or maybe I just choose weird ones) involve some relationship or other. Whereas that particular scene in Breaking Dawn could be quite scary for younger people. I think the movie version is going to have to aim older. Quote
Nollaig Posted July 7, 2009 Author Posted July 7, 2009 That scene could beat the SAW movies if they really went for it in the film version. Dreamcatcher style. Quote
frankie Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Charm and Frankie, I'm actually disturbed. You are both mature, sensible women. And here you are giggling like schoolgirls over zipping through the Twilight series. There's a shy, impressionable teenage girl in me who's doing it. The giggling. No wonder I'm so fat, need to get rid of her. Quote
chesilbeach Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Charm and Frankie, I'm actually disturbed. You are both mature, sensible women. And here you are giggling like schoolgirls over zipping through the Twilight series. I knew it was a threat to civilisation but man, I underestimated it. Don't let Roxi tell you off it's good to embrace your inner teenager occasionally - it keeps you young! Besides, if she's telling you two off, she'd have to include me as well, as I'm supposed to be a mature, sensible woman as well (although I have spent most the nearly twenty years since I was a teenager trying to deny that!)

frankie Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Hm, now I'm truly beginning to wonder if I'm considered OLD in this forum. I'm not OLD!! Quote
