Thanks to everyone who attended Bella and Edward's vampire wedding reception at the Denton Barnes & Noble on Friday night. What a great time!
I was knocked out by the number of people who came in costume--either evening dress or Twilight-themed t-shirts. I was even more pleased to see that there are other Team Jacob members out there. Howl on, my sisters, howl on.
There were a number of great events: the postcard-making table, the chess demonstration, the sci-fi/fantasy art class, the presentation from the Rare Books Room (loved the 3-D book shaped like an apple!), a dramatic reading from Breaking Dawn, and Find-Your-Twilight-Character from the Teen Advisory Board. I gave a talk about "Transformation and Choice in the Twilight Saga" and brought Alice to answer fans' questions about the next book. (A friend of mine took some great pictures of me and Alice; I'll try to post them soon!)
But I think the moment everyone will remember is when Jacob showed up and challenged Edward to a fight! Wow! All the camera phones came out (if you had yours with you, PLEASE send me a picture) as the crowd backed out of the power aisle, giving the two room.
The confrontation escalated from verbal sparring to a duel with swords and finally a no-holds-barred fistfight. Edward smashed Jacob's face directly into the wedding cake and then laid him out on the ground. Poor Jake was down for the count! But when Edward reached down, wiped some icing from Jake's face, and ate it--well, I thought that was insult to injury. But the Team Edward crowd went wild!
Hope you had a great time, wherever you were.
