Last December, I went to see the film "Twilight," only because it was the only movie that was remotely interesting to me that was playing after a holiday dinner in Green Bay. I found the film enjoyable -- who doesn’t like to witness a romance between a hot teenaged girl and a vampire? -- but I certainly wasn’t blown away.
The romantic-fantasy film did, however, make me want to read the book because I am a person who dwells in the camp of "the book is usually better than the movie."
So, this week, I finally ordered a used copy of the book from Amazon.com, which is written by Stephanie Meyer, and I can’t wait to plow into it.
I have high expectations despite my lukewarm feelings about the film. So, those of you who have seen and read "Twilight," which is better?
