Everyone reads at their own pace during a Buddy Read. Because participants can be at different parts of the book at different times, it is extremely important to mark spoilers so that the book is not ruined for someone who is not as far along as others!!!

Mark spoilers by placing {spoiler} before the text and {/spoiler} after the text but use the < and > instead of the { and }.

Hi everyone 👋 I started the book this weekend.

I have two comments so far. They might be spoilers, but they're in the first half of chapter 1, so I won't use the spoiler tag.

Ch 1 - Charlie - Why is Charlie such a moron that he can’t even warm up pasta sauce? I don't remember how old he is but I'm assuming late 30s or early 40s. How does someone get to that age without knowing that you don't put metal in the microwave? How is he so clueless??? I feel like every character in these books has to be a moron or a villain for Bella and the Cullens to look better in comparison.

Ch. 1 - Re-reading Wuthering Heights. Is Wuthering Heights the kind of book one rereads constantly? The description in this chapter implies she's read this book many, many times, and I can only imagine the story of Catherine and Heathcliff worsening someone's depression.

Finished the book. Plot-wise, I think this was the best book in the series.

Planning on starting it after I finish Dracula! I’m excited to see how I like this one 😁

Started this a few days ago and am making slow but steady progress.

Just finished chapter four and so far it’s much more plot than New Moon. (view spoiler)[ I remember when Edward proposed in the movie it didn’t seem so weird as it does in the book. In the movie it was easy to forget that Edward and Bella are still in high school! (hide spoiler)]
