Dave,
First of all thanks for making the change that allows us to read your entire articles in our RSS readers - it looks wonderful and is very convenient!
Second, although I *have* read some Stephenie Meyer novels, I didn't read the Bree Tanner novella that was reviewed on my site - it was my sister, Cin, who now does a review for me once a week. (see what happens when you're gone from the blogosphere!) But based on her review I may give it a go - here's hoping I survive!
As the immortal philosopher Homer Simpson would say "d'oh!" It's right there in the posted by and I didn't see it.
