twilight There's a new 'Twilight' book on the way: 'Midnight Sun'

[Jordan Miller]

Author Stephenie Meyer, who created the iconic Twilight series, has a new one on the way. 

It's titled Midnight Sun and will go on sale August 4th. It's written from the point of view of Edward Cullen. 

Feels appropriately timed tbh.

“I thought seriously about delaying this announcement until things were back to normal,” Ms. Meyer said in a statement. “However, that felt wrong, considering how long those who are eager for this book have already waited.”

She added: “I know how much I personally need distractions right now, how much I need something to look forward to, and most of all, how much I need more books to read. So, I hope this book gives my readers a little pleasure to anticipate and, after it arrives, a chance to live in an imaginary world for a while.”

“Meeting beautiful, mysterious Bella is both the most intriguing and unnerving event he has experienced in his long life as a vampire,” the publisher, Little, Brown Books for Young Readers, said in its listing for the book. “As we learn more fascinating details about Edward’s past and the complexity of his inner thoughts, we understand why this is the defining struggle on his life. How can he let himself fall in love with Bella when he knows that he is endangering her life?”

We got any Twilight fans in the house? 

More importantly... Team Edward or Team Jacob?

Who asked for this?!

God, I’m so tired of everyone rehashing things that were popular 10 years ago instead of just being creative and making new things now.

Oh Twilight, I remember  the time when a couple of my  female friends convinced me to read the books. I read them, felt "meh" about the whole franchise. Then a few years later 50 Shades of Grey was published and the same girls recommended me the book (surprise! it was a ******* Twilight fanfiction) and after one hour of listening the audiobook on youtube, I stopped.

What's up with those creepy *** men entering the girl's rooms? If a man entered my room at night (or had been watching me SLEEPING) or the storage room of my workplace, no one is going to stop me to call the police.

Yeah, not interested in vampires who sparkle in the sun.

I read the first book and thought to myself “ Eh sure, it’s cute, it’s no Harry Potter, but it’s cute sis”. Then I started New Moon and halfway through,  I thought to myself “ ifireadfourmorepagesofthis*****describingedwardandhowcuteheiseverytimehewalksintoaroomiamgoingtokillmyself” so I rebuked the series and never looked back 🤷🏾‍♂️

This saga is awful and it aged terribly. I guess feminists are too busy because if they re-read this they would burn all the books ever printed.

I did like the first movie when I was 18. I just realized after that it was... special. It definitely started when I read the second book... lol

I read the first two books. great teen fiction. 

the movie was so bad and so cringe I couldn't even get through it. it didn't help that Robert Pattinson wasn't my cup of tea. I didn't see new moon but I prob should have - just to see more of Taylor lautner.
