You may all recall I have been expressing masochistic thoughts recently; namely, a desire to read Twilight just to see what it's like, but not wishing to spend any money to do so, not even the reservation fee at the local library. Incidentally, the fee has gone up to $1.10 now. It was only $1 when I read Eragon (and I couldn't get my dollar back either).

As it turns out, Magdalena, a fellow SCAdian, is starting her Master's in English Literature, and her thesis is examining vampires in popular culture. This means, she has large numbers of vampire novels and movies in her library. Including all four Twilight books.

So I borrowed them. Despite all the warnings, including Magdalena's ("they're so emo!").

It's... bad.

So bad, in fact, I'm not even sure I'll be able to finish Twilight, and a book has to be really, really bad for me not to finish it.

I really need to stop doing these things to myself.
