A VIRGINIA LIBRARY IS BITTEN!

Posted October 9th, 2008 By: 2 Comments »

Smyth-Bland Regional Library has the Twilight bug. Since there is no cure, they’re embracing it and celebrating. Here is their story:

The book literally fell apart from use. Replacing one of the books in the Smyth-Bland Regional Library’s collection of the widely popular Twilight series helped further establish the books’ value.

The library is ready to celebrate that reality this Saturday. The Twilight Party, which will feature games like Twilight Scattergories and Twilight charades, will begin at 1 p.m. in the Marion branch’s Copenhaver Room. Attendees, who are asked to RSVP by Oct. 9 by calling 783-2323 Ext. 223 or e-mailing Reed-Armbrister at traceyr@sbrl.org, are encouraged to dress in a Twilight-themed costume, in character or in Twilight attire.

The party will feature music by the Mitch Hansen Band and the Bella Cullen Project, both Twilight series-inspired bands.

I can’t tell you how much I love these stories. Stephenie Meyer is bringing people together all over the world. It’s wonderful that non-readers are picking up these books and being BITTEN by Twilight. What do you think about the Twilight phenomenon?

    I agree. And I just wish our little local library would follow suit. I would be there, as an adult presence of course, to help and celebrate all things Twilight. In fact, I think the book stores should be holding Twilight themed parties for Halloween and the two weeks after coming up to the Movie release date. Seriously, the whole concept of energizing young people (any people) to pick up a book when there are so many other technological playthings to occupy them is just Incredible. Three cheers for Stephenie Meyer, the Queen of our vampires! She’s our hero.
