Twilight: the First Three

Why is it that whenever I'm done reading a book (or books, if it's a series) I somehow feel rather sad?  I finished speed reading Eclipse last night, the third book in the Twilight series, after also racing through the first two.  I gotta say it:  They were excellent.  The suspense at the end of New Moon makes up for all the heartbreak and slow action in the middle.  But the ending of Eclipse just tore my heart out.  I finished the book, shut it, and started crying.


Don't get me wrong though.  As of right now, concerning the Twilight series, I definitely want Bella and Edward to be together.  But Jacob's epilogue in Eclipse really made me sad.

All through reading this series, I kept thinking to myself, "Wow.  I really do like these books. But they're not real!"  I have to keep reminding myself that there are no such things as vampires or werewolves.  I guess I can take one real thing from them though: I'm praying I never have to decide between two potential guys, who would both be good choices as boyfriend/spouse material.

*Nod*.  With that said, I shouldn't be so sad.  The fourth book is coming out in August!
