I Saw Breaking Dawn!!!!!!

228 Views

Hi from a hooky-playing Tara Lain! I used to see a movie a week before i was a writer. In fact i had a movie review blog. Not i use my weekends to write

books which i love. But occasionally … well, i had to go see Edward. Sigh.Sorry. Very imappropriate for a grown woman, but he is one adorable vampire. 

Actually i enjoyed the books a lot, and if you read the books you know that Breaking Dawn is really two stories. So they did a good job with the idea of splitting it into two movies. This movie, of course, starts with the wedding, the honeymoon and all that ensues before the giant fights at the end which will be the next film. Even with two films to tell the story, it still doesn't have the sense of time that the book does. Everything is more compacted. I don't want to include spoilers but i will say that the special effects on Kristen Strewart's body are pretty amazing. 

Certainly no one is going to critique any of the Twilight series based on the acting. The scripts don't require incredible range and the young actors have generally been up to the angsty teenage passion that the films have needed. Pattinson certainly has some acting chops. In this film, however, i must confess that Taylor Lautner's woodenness was a bit intrusive at times. (Don't hate me, Team Jacob). Still, i loved the whole thing to pieces and will see it again at least on TV. The last film should be incredible!

    Good for you, Tara. I actually really enjoyed the books, but not so much with the movies. Will probably wait to watch this one when it's a dvd release.

 Stephanie Laurens' Waiting for Thomas Newsletter, May 15, 2025.

 Getting swept away by a good story is one of life's greatest pleasures.

 Hello to you all, dear readers!
 
 I feel it has been some time since I sent a newsletter out. I do hope you are all doing well. I’ve been enjoying myself lately with a trip to Japan a few weeks ago. What an interesting and ancient culture.

In our interview for award-winning author Penelope Marzec, I found her enchanting. Her tales of romance warm the heart as she writes inspirational romances in the spirit of faith, paranormal romances filled with magic, historicals, and contemporaries romance. Her love of adventure comes out in her books and will keep you guessing until the end. She also won EPIC's eBook Awards.

I’ve had the pleasure of speaking to the creator of contemporary romance novel, Sierra Falls by Martha O’Sullivan. She writes what she knows from beautiful Lake Tahoe. Each of her books; Second Chance, Chance Encounter, Last Chance, and Christmas in Tahoe were created with that lovely town in mind. She has a connection with it and her love of it shines in her tales. Please enjoy her interview.
