Books / Sports Channing Frye on Twilight
Posted by Alison Hallett on Fri, Apr 3, 2009 at 5:38 PM
I know Ezra has mentioned Channing Frye's blog before, but I'm pretty sure he HASN'T mentioned my new favorite Blazer's review of Twilight:
Ok, I know I’m way late on the whole “Twilight Craze,” but my fiancée is reading this book and she cannot put it down. I make fun of her every time I get a chance. But it’s not just that simple. She watched the movie, loved it, and thought that the lead actor was hot, so that gives her a mental image of some hot vampire dude love story to think about while she reads the book.Hey, I know it sounds like I’m hating but really I’m not. I didn’t think the movie was awful or even the worst of all time, it was just way way way to mushy for being a vampire movie. Vampires literally eat animals and by animals I mean people. With their bare hands ‘n fangs. Yes, no utensils needed. They rip skin off like a bad paper cut.
Go read the post. It's great. Confidential to Channing: Open invite to come blog about books for me.
