Anyone else here who loves the Twilight Series?

Wow, I have to admit I'm totally addicted to these books! When I read the first one, I was just curious to find out what all the hype is all about, and first I thought it's just a teenage novel, but then I was drawn into the story, and kind of fell under Edward Cullen's spell! LOL

I'm currently reading the third one, Eclipse, and after that, there will be a break because I figure it will take a while until Breaking Dawn is available as a paperbook here in Germany. I have also bought the first movie on dvd, and I enjoyed it a lot, so I guess I will also order the New Moon-movie in April, when the dvd is going to be released.

I'm actually no big fan of love stories, but this one is really special, and IMO, it's more a story about multicultural tolerance anyway.

Anyone else here who loves the books, or/and the movies?

I liked the books, but didn't think the movie did the book justice.

Oh, I thought they didn't change the storyline too much for the movie. Or do you just think the actors they've chosen were just not fitting in?

I didn't have much quibble with the casting, though thought they could have at least tried to find a young Native American to play Jake ... I just didn't think there was the emotional depth, and really thought the "vampire in sunlight" effect was poorly done, and a lot was left out.

and really thought the "vampire in sunlight" effect was poorly done,

Oh, I totally agree on this one!! The imagination I got from reading about that in the book was much better!!

I adore Twilight. Edward Cullen in on my bedroom door and I have a jacket and the books and the movie and some other books that related to filming and stuff like that. Okay, so maybe I'm a tad bit obsessed

I didn't like the first movie at all, the casting was okay (although I think Kristen Stewart can't act well--she did do better in New Moon though).

The books are my favorite though
