New Covers, Acceptance Speeches and That Jonas Boy Again

August 11th, 2010

The Twilight Saga

Don’t get too excited. These limited edition copies of The Twilight Saga with white covers aren’t going to be available in the US, but maybe you can find them on eBay. They’ll be for sale in the UK, Australia, Ireland, New Zealand, South Africa and India.

The white titles will only be published between October and Christmas 2010, replacing the usual black jackets. The titles will have crimson-edged pages and crimson back covers, with text confined to the spines.

Click on Videos up at the top of the page – yes, right up at the top there – and see Robert Pattinson’s and Taylor Lautner’s acceptance speeches at the Teen Choice Awards.

Ashley Greene and Joe Jonas

Ashley Greene and Joe Jonas were seen together again! They must be getting married and she’s probably pregnant. I bet they went house-hunting after coffee. Or maybe Ashley is actually the secret Jonas sister. Or maybe they were kidnapped by aliens at the same time. Or maybe, just maybe, they’re friends and they had coffee.

There are all sorts of Twilight books, not just the novels themselves.

First, here’s a comparison of the original covers and the movie tie-in versions:

What will the Breaking Dawn movie tie-in cover look like?

I’ve really enjoyed the movie companion books, full of details on how the movies were made and behind-the-scenes photos by Mark Cotta Vaz.

Stephenie Meyer teamed up with artist Young Kim to make graphic novel versions of Twilight. Here’s Twilight: The Graphic Novel, Volume 1 (The Twilight Saga):

I couldn’t find any news or release dates for Volume 2.

And last are two highly anticipated books…

The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner: An Eclipse Novella (Twilight Saga) will be available on June 5th. It’s the story of newborn vampire Bree Tanner from the time she is turned into a vampire for Victoria’s army leading up to her second death by The Volturi.

Eclipse keeps getting hotter…

February 16th, 2010

A new article today by the Huffington Post released some steamy photos of Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson from the movie Eclipse. I tell you what, I don’t know how they are going to keep this thing PG-13. However, I must say I am happy to see that the photos released show signs of staying true to the real story. Anyone remember the description of the bed and comforter in the Eclipse novel? Photo’s could not bring it to life any better.
