I recognized the fascination growing inside me, even as I tried to root it out. I
could not afford to find Bella Swan interesting. Or rather, she could not afford that. Already, I was anxious for another chance to talk to her. I wanted to know more about her mother, her life before she came here, her relationship with her father. All the meaningless details that would flesh out her character further. But every second I spent with her was a mistake, a risk she shouldn’t have to take.

Ahh I would kill to get my hands on that book.

Right now I'm reading The Book of Lost Things by John Connolly. It's really good! Here's page 46:

. . . there was still the Boy's Own paper every month, which David always filed carefully alongside his Aircraft of the Fighting Powers books.
"Will you have to go and fight?" David asked his father, once dinner was over.
"No, I shouldn't think so," his father replied. "I'm more use to the war effort where I am."
"Top secret," said David.
His father smiled at him.
"Yes, top secret," he said.
It still gave David a thrill to think that his father might be a spy, or at least know about spies. So far, it was the only interesting part of the war.

Not the best excerpt I could give, but there it is. The book is about fairy tales =] And it's really, really, really good.

I didn't finish it. I loved the beginning and then about halfway through I couldn't stand it anymore ... Maybe I'll try it again someday. >_<
