  • Twilight (Part 2)
    Ah, romance: your partner watching you sleep, telling you he could kill you, wanting to drink your blood... all the normal romance stuff.... Now that Edward's shown off how fast and strong he is in the meadow, his and Bella's romance is in full swing. Bella doesn't care that he's a vampire and she certainly doesn't care that she's only known him for like 2 months, she decides that they're in love. They're trying to make their coupling as normal as possible by meeting each other's families, but when some other vampires decide to pass through Forks and decide they want to eat Bella the clock immediately starts ticking down to save Edward's heroin. Join Meggie and Laura on the action-filled finale to Twilight.

  • Twilight (Part 1)

    Welcome to lucky number season 13 of YA, We Read It!

    Bella Swan had everything in Phoenix: warm weather. Her life is turned upside down when her mother decides to tour with her minor league baseball boyfriend and she is forced to relocate to the cloudy, nature-infested, and historically not warm Forks, Washington to stay with her dad. Bella quickly finds herself obsessing over the resident unsocial Cullen family, known amongst the small town mostly for being really really good looking and isolating themselves. Bella becomes infatuated with Edward Cullen who soon reveals his entire family is vampires, and Bella is honestly totally fine with it (ok, go off Bella!). Can their love make it through the throes of high school and vampire lore? Will your hosts Meggie who historically loves Twilight and Laura who historically does not love Twilight give you the POVs you're looking for this season? Tune in!
