Twilight the Movie

6 May 2008 Jackie 1

So I haven’t actually read any of Stephanie Meyer’s Twilight novels, but I keep hearing rave reviews about them. I know there is a movie in the works, but I haven’t seen any trailers yet so I haven’t given it much thought. That has all changed. The first trailer has […]
