It’s official. I’m making it public. Yesterday I started reading Twilight. I know that upon this announcement, many of you may be questioning my sexual orientation or wondering what sort of bet I lost to be subjected to such a task, but I assure you I am straight as straight can be, and I lost no bet. Honestly, I’m just intrigued… and I’m a sucker for a good book.
This last week, my friend Kat Tingey showed me a song that she had just finished writing and recording with help from Ryan Shupe and Ryan Tilby from Ryan Shupe and the Rubber Band. The song is titled ‘Undone,’ and it is, without a doubt, one of the most beautiful songs I’ve heard in a long time. Not only is the melody absolutely chilling and incredibly moving, but the lyrics and the message of the song demonstrate the characteristics of a very experienced musician.
The song itself is inspired by the relationship between Edward and Bella, a relationship I’m not familiar with at this point… which is partly why I am now bent on reading this book. Call me a pansy, a sissy or a guy who is very secure with his masculinity, but I HAVE TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS! Plus, maybe I’ll pick up some sweet pointers on how to woo a special girl… or kill a vampire.
For the dudes out there, I’ll be sure to write a book report when I’m finished to let you know if reading this book has made me more of a man… or less of a man who gets more love from the ladies. Either one works for me.
Here’s a copy of the song that stirred my insides enough to make me read a chick book:
Undone

I’m so proud! Let me know how you like it…
I liked the book and LOVED the song!! I think that your masculinity will somehow survive.
i hope you know what you’re getting into. you know there are three books, with a fourth on the way? but you probably can put down the book after the first one and not look back.
honestly, the writing’s not that great, and there’s not much substance to the plot, but it’s a fun, quick read. or at least, that’s what i’d say if you were a girl. since you’re a guy…you’ll probably get a good glimpse into the craziness that is a teenage girl’s mind. have fun!
You are a pansy, a sissy, or a guy who is very secure in his masculinity.
