When i woke up I was confused. My thoughts were hazy, still twisted up in dreams and nightmares; it took me longer than it should have to realize where I was...I heard, as if from underwater, the final growl of the hunter. I could see, through the long tunnels my eyes had become, his dark shape coming toward me. With my last effort, my hand instinctively raised to protect my face. My eyes closed, and I drifted.
That are some of the lines excerpted from the Twilight by Stephanie Meyer, reviewed by the Publishers Weekly as the Best Book of the Year. Last July, I had a chance to procure the last item on the bookstand of National Book Store located at Shangri-La Mall a copy of this book. Sparing two weeks reading the novel was too long i suppose, to think that it contains 498 pages. Meyer on my personal assessment as a reader was one of the great author who can really twist your imagination. Indeed, she has a different form and style in writing that can easily catch the attention of its reader, which i think a very good and an important characteristic that a novelist must possess. Once you start reading you will never stop flipping the pages. They described this book as deeply seductive and extraordinary suspenseful; Twilight is a love story with a bite, propelled by suspense and romance on equal parts.
Couple of weeks ago, I had an opportunity to watching the premier opening of the Body of Lies, starred by Leonardo de Caprio and Russell Crowe at the Megamall Cinema 6. Surprisingly, Twilight was finally been transformed into a big screen. It will be showing one of these days, so for those who were impressed by Harry Potter movies, don't dare miss it.
Make less on your expectation and see more for yourself.
By the way, I would like to thank Mr. Celis for the commendation.
