i don't wanna get anyone in trouble...

...so i won't name any names.

but i was at someone's house last night, and that someone had a copy of midnight sun...
(the twilight book from edward's point of view that stephenie meyers is no longer going to publish because of the pirated copies that are circulating. )

it is over 200 pages long and ends mid-sentence.
i got to page 93 before we had to go home. and now i'm dying inside.

because i wasted time jumping on the trampoline,
playing the piano,
and shooting hoops
before i noticed she had it.

woe is me.

how did this unnamed person get this copy? And how can we get one since it's probably going to be at least a week before you can see it again right?

Emily said...

longer. said person is now in the bahamas for 8 days.

Emily said...

and said person got it from friend, so s/he may have already returned it to friend before leaving.

Peg said...

that's who I thought you were talking about. Dang!

April said...

Wow! All of this sounds SO top secret.

What? how did this 'said person' acquire such a rarity? and how do I get it? I'm so MAD she isn't going to publish it! Dang!

The pudding it just vanilla pudding with food coloring. My friend came up with the Idea. It was really fun for the kids and easy to clean up. You should try it.

PS i wanted to read that . You like it?

Jessica said...

I would be dying too! That sucks.

Rachel P said...

You can read it on Stephenie Meyer's website, did you know that?

Emily said...

the whole thing? I thought it was just one or two chapters?

Emily said...

Ohhhh, I read this back in August (or Sept - I can't remember) it is SOOOOO GOOD!!! Since then I've read it once more, I hate where it ends though - it MUST be finished someday!! =)

So I gotta ask, and no, I haven't read one stitch of it, isn't it a bit of overkill? Is it worth it to read because don't we already know the story? I have been silently protesting reading it for those reasons, have I been denying myself something fabulous???

Summer said...

Why is she not publishing? NOOOOOOOO! Is the whole thing on her website? Im so sad!

Emily said...

yeah jill, probably. but i like it because you get to see edward's side of their conversations, and the parts where edward and bella aren't together you see the dynamic between him and his family, you find out just how much he loves her, just how much he follows her (in the beginning), things like that. kinda fun, i think.

summer, she said she's put the project on hold indefinitely because she's so mad about it but you can read her draft (almost 300 pages) here.
