Hi all! I'm looking forward to Erin's house this week for "When You Reach Me". If you want to check into the next book it's titled, "Nightlight: A Parody" by Harvard Lampoon author's. We've not done a parody yet. We've talked about "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" on a few occasions but haven't actually done it. SOOO since many of us are Twilight fans I thought this little book would be quite enlightening, funny, and educational :), as far as parodies go. Just fyi a parody is a humorous or satirical imitation of a serious piece of literature or writing. Not sure how the world made vampires so serious but this little book seemed to think we've all gotten a little too caught up in Stephanie Meyer's imagination. I've got to read it again but I think it goes into the first two of her books plus "The Host".
I've got a copy that I'll be reading through again before I send it around. There are 6 copies in the consortium and two of them are at Nampa.
For our discussion I'd like to ask everyone to keep a little slip of paper handy (I'll give you one at Erin's house) and just jot down the page number, paragraph and sentence that refer's to something that you felt was making a point about...well, the culture of vampires, the world today, actors/actresses etc.
Happy Reading and "Long Live Bella, Jacob, and Edward!";)
