Kalaloch


Ruby Beach

After writing that post about Bree Tanner, I thought of some photos I took of Kalaloch during our memorial weekend camping trip. What does Kalaloch have to do with the Twilight series? Nothing, except that it is just 30 minutes south of Forks, Washington. For being so close in proximity to this popular Twilight fan destination, Kalaloch was no busier than I’d expect for this area of the Olympic National Park. No surprise, but it was cloudy the entire time we visited, and no, we didn’t see any vampires. 🙂

BTW – A friend of mine wrote an interesting post about visiting Forks as a Twilight fan, including great photos. You can read it here.

The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner

I just finished reading Stephanie Meyer’s novella The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner. I’m sure almost everyone now is familiar with the author of the Twilight series, which I thoroughly enjoyed. It was kind of weird reading from my computer monitor, though, instead of from a book. I don’t know how Kindle users do it. It just doesn’t feel right. Or maybe it is different if you can take it with you, instead of reading from a computer desk. Anyhow, it was a good, quick read, and certainly gives a unique, alternate perspective. I’m not sure it would be as good if you haven’t read Eclipse, but if you have, you’ll find the pieces fit together nicely (except where the story refers to Edward as a redhead. What’s that about?).

From now through July 5th, the author is making the novella available to read for free, which is how I read it. Good thing, too, because my husband already gives me grief about the other 4 books taking up our limited shelf space.
