padawansguide has been sending me your links fora while now, and I finally have to leave you a comment (tho I feel bad because you get so many) but your posts are MADE OF WIN. You make me laugh and giggle AND you bring up so many great points. Thank you thank you thank you!

Also, I just wanted to comment that I'm not depressed that "it's over" the way I was with Harry Potter. Perhaps that's because we have "Midnight Sun" to look forward to, and perhaps it's because Stephanie hasn't flatly refused to ever write another book in the series the way Rowling has for Harry Potter, and Stephanie clearly loves this series so much (especially Edward) I honestly think she'll have a hard time staying away.

So I predict that eventually we'll get book 5 "Sparkly Star" set 1000 years in the future with the Cullen Family & La Push wolves saving the fragile humans on earth from an invading army of wormy parasites that take over their human hosts' minds.... ;)

Anne Rice has sooooo already set that precedent of compining book series.... ;)

Anyway, back to reality, VAMPIRES & WEREWOLVES & HUMAN/VAMPIRE HYBRIDS, OH MY!

Thanks again for the great reviews!

p.s.
I totally dressed up as Alice for the book release, because you are right, she is AWESOME.
