Eclipse Release Party at Davis Kidd!

Monday, August 6 starting at 9:00 p.m., Eclipse midnight release party!

The third installment of Stephenie Meyer’s very popular Twilight series will be released on Tuesday, August 7^th. Will Bell and Edward be able to find a few moments of peace together? Will werewolves and vampires ever get a long? Davis-Kidd will be having a midnight release party starting at 9:00 p.m. We will watch an old vampire movie and share our daydreams about Edward and Jacob as we count down until the minute we can get our greedy little hands on Eclipse.

Eclipse Library Read-In

The library will host an "Eclipse Library Read-In" where fans of the series can come to the library on August 7th from 10am-4pm to read Eclipse and talk about it with other fans.

We will have some library copies of the book here for you to read (or if you want to bring in your own copy, Davis-Kidd will host a midnight release party starting at 9pm on Monday, August 6th so you can buy it at the stroke of midnight). We will also have trivia contests, prize drawings, movie screenings, and a potluck of Twilight-themed dishes for lunch. We will send out more specific information via email later this summer.

Plot synopsis of Eclipse (from www.bn.com):
As Seattle is ravaged by a string of mysterious killings and a malicious vampire continues her quest for revenge, Bella once again finds herself surrounded by danger. In the midst of it all, she is forced to choose between her love for Edward and her friendship with Jacob -- knowing that her decision has the potential to ignite the ageless struggle between vampire and werewolf. With her graduation quickly approaching, Bella has one more decision to make: life or death. But which is which?

We look forward to seeing you at the library August 7th!
