Breaking Dawn Part 2 - Yup. I'm going. In fact, I have gone to every single midnight showing of each movie in this series. That will make tonight number 5. 

But here is the strange thing. There has been a time warp this year and midnight is occurring at 10pm.

*silence*

I'm disappointed that we, as a society, have let fear dictate our actions. *

Evil people exist every hour of the day. 

Moving the movie up 2 hours doesn't make them magically disappear into the shadows of pre-dawn. 

Perhaps the production studios think they will get more sales.

But perhaps we will be infiltrated with the only slightly infatuated fangirls... 

I am afraid that tonight will be stripped of the usual elation a midnight showing includes. "Ooo"s and "Ahhh"s at the screen. Burst of laughter and tense anticipation from the enraptured audience. The energy in that theatre is the reason I go! 

Time will tell. I'm still going to have fun with my girl friends as we act way younger than our ages tonight!

If you have any more information about the mysterious 10pm Midnight showings, please share it in the comments. 

* The recent Colorado shooting occurred during a midnight showing of The Dark Knight Rises.

The Truth About Vampires

by Theresa Meyers

288 page Mass Market Paperback, Published March 2011

Sons of Midnight, Book 1 All her life Seattle reporter Kristin Reed sought her breakout story. She never thought she'd find it in the crimson lair of a real life creature of the night. Kristin never believed vampires existed—until with dark brooding eyes and a decadent chocolate scent, Dmitri Dionotte called out to her...

Dmitri and his clan's true nature was cloaked in secrecy until a warring vampire order threatened their existence. Kristin was just the woman he needed. She couldn't resist their story...or Dmitri. Her blood pulsed hot and furious when he touched her, and with his kiss, all logic fled. But each night she spent with her vampire lover brought her closer to death and destruction. A death not even an immortal could triumph over.

• The pose is very accurate, even the passion hazed look on her face
• Good placement of multiple logos without creating a confusing mess


PARANORMALITY
• Vampires


SEXUALITY
• M/F
• Chocolate, sex, cinnamon, and sticky buns all wrapped into one!
• Stroke my fangs, baby!


PERSONAL LURES

REVIEW
Vampires used to live unseen among us, now they are being revealed to the world and you really think there isn't going to be pandemonium?! This is intense people. Vampire blood has healing abilities and there is a wicked black market a-brewing. Remind you of True Blood a little? <-- Not a jab, just a common plot thread in this sort of vampire world revelation.

Alpha males abound! This reporter doesn't know when to stop and gets herself in over her head. Classic themes and hardheaded actions/ reactions. Ends with a lot of story left to tell. Obvious opening for the next book in the series but I won't go looking for it.
