4 ½ stars. Wow! What a great story! Teresa Medeiros always produces the very best books, and this shorter book is no exception. I didn’t even know if I was going to “get it” because I have no idea about Twitter. I don’t tweet, so didn’t know anything about it, but not to worry, if you don’t either you won’t be lost in this book. This truly is “A Love Story in 140 Characters or Less.” Sort of a Sleepless in Seattle meets Twitter, except based in reality. Can Abigail Donovan (a struggling,

Quick read + meet cute = romance for 21st Century. 3.5 stars. How's this for a review in less than 140 characters?!

Abigail Donovan is an Author who is down on her luck. It has been a while since her first novel was chosen as one of Oprah’s book picks. Now, Abigail can't get anyone to come to her book signings. Instead she is asked to dress up in bunny costume and reading another author’s book to children.
If Abigail can't finish her next book she will be out of a job. Now here is where it begins. Abigail’s agent signed her up for a Twitter account. She knows nothing about twitter but is still will More...

Abigail Donovan should be finally finishing her second book but is afraid that she will not be able to write another bestseller. So she is stuck at chapter 5 and has been for years. When her publicist sets up a twitter account for Abby things begin to change. Her first tweet is answered by someone named MarkBaynard and soon they start to "meet" regularly on twitter. Both have similar tastes in movies and tv series and their discussions never get boring. In contrary Mark manages to get

you know that friend who's in luuuuuuurrrrvvvveee after meeting a guy once? The friend who comes up with elaborate fantasies of dates with some guy she barely knows? That's this book.

It was the "Griffin & Sabine for the Twitter generation" that made me grab this book - I remember falling completely in love with those books and was curious enough to borrow this "updated" version.
Now, I'm not a twit myself, er, that is, I've never really understood the whole love of Twitter thing. It's a public forum where everyone shares their personal experiences? Sounds more like group therapy than social networking, but, hey, it works for many people I r More...

Goodnight Tweetheart was a quick, fun read. Anyone familiar with Twitter will find it really easy to get. Non-Tweeters will be able to understand Twitter based on Mark's explanations to the non-Tweeter Abby-so you don't have to understand Twitter to enjoy the book.
Abby is a terrified she can no longer write--after all, how do you top an almost-Pulitzer and Oprah Pick? She's past deadline and still on Chapter Five. She's more than willing to play with the Twitter account her publici More...

I don't read a lot of contemporary romance if you follow my blog you know this. I was pleasantly surprised by this book, contemporary though it is. This book is different than any other book I have read and I have to admit when I read the excerpt from her Wicked Intentions book I was wary about it. I couldn't have been more wrong. This book is amazing.

This book really surprised me. It's just totally different from other Teresa Medeiros' books.

What I Can Tell You:
I wasn't really sure this was going to work. A love story written in 140 Characters or less? It was beautiful. I think this book could have been completely hokey but it wasn't. Teresa's Abygail and Mark are truly likeable people. I loved the banter between them. It was smart and fun. I found myself smiling most of the time.
Can we really find love on Twitter? Who knows! All I can tell you is that when the twist happens I find myself praying and hoping. More...

I looked forward to this book for months and when it finally came out, I devoured it in two hours. Teresa Medeiros does a marvelous job of turning the social media frenzy into a romantic story that could easily be the best book of 2010.
I won't go into detail because I believe revealing too much would lessen the emotional impact of the story, but I will say she weaves a romance that's both believable and heartwarming. Mark and Abby are wonderfully funny. Goodnight Tweetheart made me l More...

OK, so basically I read this novel because it’s about Twitter! And I love Twitter, despite the fact that I’m often too lazy to fight with my phone to get it to work properly. I can only tweet, my stupid timeline doesn’t update unless I take the battery out of my phone and turn it on, and then 5 minutes later it’s not working again. Pain in the ass, I can’t wait to get a Droid. Anways.

The story begins with Abigail Donovan at an unattended book signing, her book. Abigail, who once wrote a bestseller, is now unable to get past Chapter 5 of her second book. Her publisher decides to create a Twitter account for her so Abby can interact with her fans. Abby is skeptical at first but then decides to give Twitter a chance and she has her first follower, Mark Baynard, asking her “Are you a virgin?”

I just finished reading Goodnight Tweetheart, by Teresa Medeiros. Usually I pick out a book because I like the author and then part way through the book I will read the back cover. I did the same with this one.
I found this to be a highly unusual book as most of it is done in the form of tweets. Yes, you heard me correctly. A good share of the book is written in tweet dialogue. Each dialogue existing for 146 characters or less. I found myself wondering how you’d write a book in this form. More...

“Goodnight Tweetheart” is a novel of Teresa Medeiros, written in a contemporary setting. Hence the title’s tie-in to the social networking platform, twitter. Advertised to be a story in line with Tom Hanks movie “You Got Mail”, “Goodnight Tweetheart” offers to be a light, easy-going read.

Struggling 1-hit-wonder book writer meets English-lit professor on Tweeter. They choose to not look up each other's identities or photos elsewhere. They want to get to know each other purely from their online chats. The tv-&-movie-laden quips & interesting day-to-day highlights they often share with each other somehow convey what's in their inner minds & hearts. The closer they get, the more tempted heroine becomes to meeting Hero in person. But when Hero reveals his big secret, heroine doesn't

Teresa Medeiros was a magician with words throughout this tale. Abby Donovan was a New York Times Bestseller down to a New York Times Best Blocker when a bad case of Writer's block kept her from writing anymore novels. From the get go you're left feeling sorry for Abby but wanting nothing more than for her to exceed. Her agent sets her up with a good old twitter account in hopes to reconnect with fans and hopefully make new friends.

I was feeling a little restless last night, so I decided I'd give Teresa Madeiros another chance. I'm not sure what made me pick up Goodnight Tweetheart, considering I absolutely HATED her other book, The Devil Wears Plaid.

I LOVED this book! In fact, out of all the books I've read in 2010, this was by far my FAVORITE. No, it's not Christian....it does have use of the minor curse words, (nothing overtly terrible though), and it has no sex scenes....well, unless you count the laugh out loud Tweets going on between Abby and Mark that might HINT at some naughtier things. But, that in no way makes this book unreadable. In fact, the laugh out loud humor this book throws at you, is PHENOMENAL!

I've had a twitter account for about a year or two but for some reason I just couldn't bring myself to use it. Updating the world hourly about my day just didn't seem like something that I could do. Besides, why would anyone care about what I do during my day? Well, my fist's in my mouth now. It's addictive. Granted, I mostly tweet about giveaways, blogs and books but it's still a lot of fun.
