I know that I'm way behind...I just started reading and obsessing about Twilight a few weeks ago...but I just read the first chapter of Midnight Sun on the Twilight website and I have to say that my heart is literally pounding out of my chest!!!
I have no doubt in my mind that when this book finally hits the shelves it will be the most popular book in the Twilight series.
Ok, I have to go calm down a bit....my blood pressure must be sky high!! lol _________________ ~MLM

I am on my way to read that. I had to re read the chapter of Midnight Sun.
Edward is so dreamy, even if he thinks he is a monster. _________________

I agree totally, Moonlight Mistress, I think MS will be a huge hit because what does everyone love about the Twilight Series? Edward!!
It's a book all from Edward's POV. How can it not be HUGE? _________________ Fictional Vampires I Love:

Midnight Sun also gives us so much more of what Edward was really thinking. His struggles, his pain, you gain such and understanding for it that it makes him a fuller character for the rest of the books. We love Bella, she is human which is the side of the world that we are all used to. We know about being human. To find out what it's like to be a vampire is very exciting, especially about this particular vampire!

I was so shocked at how he literally was going to kill her that first day. He was plotting how much time it would take to take out the whole room of students. That was pretty intense. You see how much self control he must have to go from that to being able to hold her in his arms. He loves his Bella, that's for sure. _________________

The first time I read it I felt the same. What a shocker to think of him killing all those people. You're right, his self control is tremendous. But then is there anything Edward can't do well?  |
yeah, i didn't imagine it to be that intense. to think that he nearly killed everyone just to get to bella. and all that plotting going on inside his head! i'm sure this must have gone on beyond the first chapter. reading the MS sneak preview just made me empathize with edward's struggle even more upon revamping twilight. and yes, only true love could have lent him that much self control over his baser needs and insticts. ~le sigh~~

I loved what you said about 'all the plotting going on in his head.' I hope MS is going to be sooooooo long just to accommidate all his thinking. I can't wait to read every page.  |
yup, stephenie already said that MS will definitely be longer because edward is a much more complex character. i just hope she makes MS really, really long!! i hope she takes pity on us. . .

I want it to be so long it never ends. I could read it forever and it still wouldnt be long enough, I'd still want more.
I suppose I'll be satisfied with whatever she can do though. _________________ Blondes have more fun, but Brunettes have more Edward.

I'm really looking forward to his reaction when he arrives at the airport only to find out that Bella gave Jasper and Alice the slip!! And also his trip to Denali!! _________________
