Stephenie Meyers' Twlight Series Playlists

One reason I love Stpehenie Meyer so much is that she is just like me in respect to music; not so much our tastes are the same, but the way we both have soundtracks or playlists that go along with our lives, or in her case, her fictional characters lives. I am forever making playlists - current ones and past ones - that correspond to the big and small things that have happened in my life. And I can truly tell you where I was or what I was doing or what emotion I was feeling when I hear a song. So, I love that Stephenie does this, too. And I love Bella. And I love Edward. And I love Jacob. And now they all have their songs to go along with their characters and what happens to them in the books. The bits in parentheses are from the authors at TwilightersAnonymous.com.
