I want to go back to September… Unfortunately I fell ill and I even had to cancel my shift at the restaurant on September 11. However, I didn’t miss any of the classes at the university. I just really don’t like missing classes…
On September 14 when I came home, still quite ill, I decided to lie in bed for a while. After an hour or so, I didn’t want to get out of bed, but I didn’t want to lie still either.
I decided to start reading a book. Somewhere in August my friend Christina gave me all “Twilight” series books and I couldn’t think of a better opportunity to start reading them! Besides, it has been a while since I’ve wanted to do so. Moreover, I even haven’t watched any of the movies related to the books – so that I could first read the books and then watch the movies.
I wanted to read Twilight more out of curiosity, since the books got such good reviews. I had no idea it would grab me this much. <3
Let me tell you something: I spent 6.5 hours reading the 1st book that day. I couldn’t take my eyes off of it… And it’s so unusual of me, since I almost never spend so many hours on reading in one day. It used to be a big struggle for me to read when I was a child. Then gradually I found more fun in reading.
Honestly, there are very few books that I read the same way… Even my all-time favorite book “The Catcher in the Rye” by J.D. Salinger isn’t on that list!
I finished the book in 3 days. At school I was thinking about getting home sooner and start reading. I had only small breaks for talking with my Mom & stuff.
That’s why being ill is not that bad after all. If I hadn’t been ill I would have probably spent my day in front of the computer…
P.S. The way Edward is described, it is almost impossible NOT to fall in love with him.
