After my twelve years old daughter finished reading the books five times, each book, I began reading them. My daughter also introduced the books to her aunts. The series are beautifully written books that are a joy to read.

Like Stephenie Meyer, we are university educated women in different disciplines, many married, with nuclear families. What a concept. Although I respect the freedom of people to criticize or express their point of view, I would like us to continue to stay focused on the meaning or purpose of this worldwide craze.

Educationally, the fans are reading and are passionate about their own perspective of the books. My daughter selects these books for her reading credits at school-and the tests are very detailed. To receive good grades on the tests you must be very prepared.

We escape into the fantasy of the romantic story. The unconditional love in the series is something we all hope to achieve. It is also interesting to hear other people’s ideas on the saga-making for great conversations around the world..

Finally a series that makes it acceptable and admirable to make pre-marital sex something to resist-if the will is strong enough. Imagine someone only wanting YOU forever. Is that frightening or awe-inspiring? You be the judge.

At the end of the day, we are introduced to amazing actors and directors that want to share a story and entertain us. I hope that we continue to try to minimize the frenzy of the fans-to respect the actors privacy, and to thank all involved for a job well done.
