Breaking Dawn

On Friday August 31 at 10pm myself, Jen Free, Ryan's cousin Lauren and her cousin Emily headed to Borders bookstore for the Breaking Dawn By Stephanie Meyer Book release party. There were over 1600 people in attendance. We spend the first hour and a half walking around looking at different things they had to entertain us. finally at 11:30 the Borders employee's started lining us up in our groups...we were in the 201-400, in numerical order. Now all we had to do is wait.

Finally!! at about 12:30am it was our groups turn to get our books. The line twisted around the store. As well slowing moved through the store we could feel the anticipation mounting...and at about 12:50am we had our books in hand! People were screaming in excitment to go home and read this book. Fans of the Twilight Series have been waiting a year to get their hands on Breaking Dawn and finally it happened.

We were on our way home from the store and we could feel our fingers itching to open those first pages to dig right in. When I finally dropped Jen off at her house we both looked at the clock, it was 1:11am! Well at least were were home AN HOUR earlier than we had been last year when we got Eclipse! That is improvement.

I had decided whether I was going to start reading when I got home. I was so exhausted from the day, but my curiosity won out. I was up untill 3:15am reading when I finally tore myself away from this amazing story of a human girl and her vampire!

So today is monday and I have finally finished reading Breaking Dawn. It is by FAR my favorite book of the series with Twilight coming in a close second place. I have spend the last 3 days delved into this book like my life depended on it. I have lost sleep, I have gotten headaches of sleep deprivation, I have skipped doing the laundry, and all because I am a die hard fan of the series. So now after having such a great fantasy weekend I am getting back to real life! But I sure enjoyed this book! I would recomend it to anyone and everyone.

I can't get over how great this book was!

(And a special Thank You to Aisling for taking the pictures! I'm glad that you were there with us even though you didn't get a book right then. It was great meeting you!)
