I never thought I could have such a reaction to a single book until I read Twilight. I actually pained me to put it down! I started reading it this summer and thank god New Moon and Eclipse had already been published and I didn't have to wait after I finished Twilight. But here I am, having read all three in only two weeks and having to wait till next fall for Breaking Dawn (urgh) I ended up stumbling onto this website and fell in love with some of the fanfiction, which has caused me to want to write my own!
