I also have read all of the Twilight books and think they are very careful not too encourage dangerous behavior (they do not even have any sex before marriage). I would try to et her some older role models that she can look up to who love reading, but know what is safe. I think that her wanting to read is great.

I have not stopped because I am so excited about her reading so much. I think that part is great but the vampires and angels of the dark etc., not wure where that is going to take her. Hopefully not these kids that were all black with the heavy black makeup and other nonsence. Not sure what to expect, and very afraid. I want to get her more into God , but she is not interested at all please help.
