Failed the Will Save against Humor.

So. Yesterday, while I was at a different jobsite, I could internet from work, and I was re-reading all of
cleolinda's Twilight recaps. They were hilariously bad.
It got me thinking. Cheer Sister had yelled at me before for making fun of the books she was reading without having read them myself. Granted, I knew what happens in the books, and she was kind of pissed that I was able to zero in on the things that bothered her about them (thus proving that she has some sanity for a now-fifteen-year-old-girl), but I have admittedly never been able to get past the second page. Like, physically. There's something about Stephanie Meyer's writing style that just...rubs me against the literary grain.

So I'm trying it again. I'm going to force myself to read all four books.
Because Ihate love you all so much, I'm going to document my journey into madness.
We begin with Twilight. Pray for my soul, if you are so inclined.
