Last Friday while at the mall checking out bed frames for our new place, I happened to pass by Fully Booked and bought a book. I originally wanted to buy Time Traveler’s Wife because I’ve read one good review about it by desperateblogger but I ended up buying Twilight by Stephanie Meyer.
All the books of Stephanie Meyer are on sale so I grabbed a copy but not before encountering a funny and somewhat irritating incident. Just I was flipping through the pages of the book, I asked a teenager beside me why the book became so popular. She told me that it’s a story of a couple and their forbidden love. Forbidden because the guy happens to be a vampire and is torn between his love for the girl and his true nature as a vampire. Oh well, that’s the gist of the story. Intriguing, right?
I was already convinced to buy the first book but guess what this girl said to me. “But I don’t know if you can appreciate it. You know, it’s a story of two youngsters.” So I smiled, got the book and walked away.
The nerve.
