A New Romeo and Juliet themed YA novel


I read Twilight by Stephenie Meyers last week with the thought of using it to replace Blood and Chocolate as a Romeo and Juliet lit circle group read. It works perfectly as a new choice for students, especially those that want to earn bonus points for the extra pages. Now I'm waiting for the next book in this trilogy to come out in September. It's called new moon. When I looked on Stephenie Meyers' website tonight I saw a link to the first chapter. Be sure to click on the link to the pdf file. I guess I'll start there until the book comes out in a couple of months.
