I liked this book. One reason is that there is a ton of high-tech things that the fairies use. Another is that the fairies are different from the creatures you read about in fairy tales. Also it was funny at times as well. The centaur named Foaly had a pretty good sense of humor at most times. It also had a lot of action in it as well.
There were, however, also a few things I did not like. One was people’s language at times, like that one commander who said, “Blow the door off its **** hinges.” There were a few other times people swore too. That was almost about the only thing I did not like about the book though.
In this book I did not really have a favorite part. I liked just about all of them. Altogether, it was a very good book.

Well, I have to admit that I was one of those people who REFUSED to read this series out of principle. This series had so much buzz around it- girls in their teens through twenties were swooning over a fictional bad boy, going to midnight book releases, dressing as brides and drawing bite marks on their wrists when attending twilight functions. This craze was rivaling Star Wars, and I refused to join in. While away for a four night trip to Canada with a few friends, a friend of mine spent every minute of our time in the hotel glued to this book. After gushing over the characters and describing the premise to me, I was intrigued enough to buy Twilight- in paperback- to read on an upcoming trip to Florida. I started the book the morning of my departure (6pm flight) and got through more than half of it before 1 pm. I made a pit-stop on my way to the airport at the local book store and picked up New Moon. For three days and three nights I was so involved in Twilight and New Moon (yes I even got through half of New Moon while away!) that I barely noticed the scorching sunburn I had acquired! **I have since repurchased the entire series in hardcover so that they would last my reading and re-reading!**
To give everyone an idea of my interests- my favorite shows are Veronica Mars, Roswell, Sex and the City, Buffy (the early years) Entourage, and Friends, and my book favorites are the chick lit of Emily Giffin, Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, and The Time Travelers Wife.
This book has it all!

The previous reviews pretty much sum up the premise of this book, so I will not get too carried away repeating a synopsis that has been rehashed a thousand times (literally!)
I will leave you with one last thought-
1. Don’t read this book because it’s such a “hit” or the new “craze”.
2. Don’t NOT read thi

As a Canon shooter, I like to keep my gear as “Canon” as possible. I bought a Canon 70-200mm L lens a while ago & found I needed the tripod mount. I just couldn’t see spending over $100 for the Canon brand when I could buy the Opteka for around $50! C’mon, it’s a metal ring that holds the lens not optical equipment! The Opteka works well, the quality is fine & it fits the lens perfectly. The color is slightly darker than the lens but big deal, my concern is image quality, not “looking cool” and besides, I saved over $100!
