I recomend you do both, rad teh books and watch the movies- they get better and better each time, thats teh greatest things about movie adaptations of series, they have the chance to improve and develop the characters. The fan fiction is pretty cool- thats the great thing about it- you can write it from whatever perspective and it will draw readers in =) I agree with you, it would suck to miss out, i can't imagine what i'd be doing in november if i wasn't into the twilight series lol!
Yeah, we've all fallen in the love with the characters, and to see them in theory breathing and walking lol its really exciting, even though i know the actors are not the characters its still pretty cool having them in “human” form =)
Its is obsessive, i'm extremely obsessed with them, I'm constantly thinking about the series, characters, the plot of the story, and now the movies, I think fans have sort of learned to adapt it to their lives, its normal to us to talk about twilight and the talk the characters and actors because it's become so much apart of our lives! They are incredibly humble, and they're under so much pressure to live up to fans expectations and to live up the character so i think they're doing a fantastic job, wouldn't change any of them =)
Wow who would have thought a comment about David and Billy's tweets would lead to deep comverstation =) I like it=) x
