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.

interisting beginning she didnt bother to take her time explaining the previous book with already known info. what could the title mean and why the moon? is it a possibility that things will change dramatically or will they stay completly the same.

I just read a review that gave away too much info...like she isn't with Edward in this book at all. They are separated.. ugh.. I guess I will be reading it on the airplane next week. Too much schoolwork this week.

there is always too much to do in school and if there was nothing to do we'd be board because we wouldn't know what to do with ouselves interisting isnt it.

so now that you know a lot of whats already happened or if you've already finished dont you think it interisting that bella cant help but to atract mythical monsters to her dooorstep. i mean shes so clumsy and doesnt care for her own safty its like her human instincts are backwards.
