I have a weird ocdwhich only allows me to have new books and I never abandon them (have to read till the very end) I rip out the blank and title pages (I know its odd) and I absolutely must keep them all. Even if I didn't like a particular book its become like family

in my car while my husband drives me around for work. Thats where I get most of my reading done
Marley and MeI had to stop, wipe and sniffle, then continue reading
I am quite selfish and OCD with my books which is why I've only had one friend ever lend me a book with I returned a few days later exactly as she gave it to me and bought my own copy. I lent my sister a book about a year ago it was bothering me so much she had not returned it I bought her her own copy - snuck into her apt and exchanged the books. I don't even share my books with my husband - he understands and stays away from them. LOL

My Opinion
It was definitely different from most of the books I read. At the beginning I really had no idea what to expect, and ..."
If you didn't like the book def. don't waste your time with the movie it is completely different and not in a good way. i also don't understand why they group this in with the Twilight saga either...
