Okay. . . so I have never ever been to a book release party, and I thought I would try this one out, because I fell in love with these books and wanted to read the 4th and last one ASAP. I reserved my copy a few weeks before and then came in the morning of- to get my wristband and raffle ticket for your "place" in line and to win a t-shirt. I was # 4-woohoo, however I got one for my sister in law who didnt reserve a book and she was 501 on the waitlist. It didnt matter that much though. I got my book maybe 20 minutes before she did, and while we waited we read the book. I didnt know that you get 40% off as well-so that was definitely worth staying up til midnight. The evening started at 9:30 pm. It was filled with Trivia questions, a costume contest-there were a few really good ones and 2 people won Twilight T-shirts and one person got to be first in line. (oh and did I mention-there were lots of really Excited teenage girls) We also saw Berlinda Akinaka there so that made it fun too. We are all planning to see the movie in November. I finished the book by Tuesday and loved the Happy Ending.
