New Moon - the book, by Stephanie Meyer

With the New Moon movie set for release in New Zealand on 19th November 2009, why not read the book, if you haven't already, or read it again? We have two copies here in the library.

If they are out, ask a librarian how you can reserve one, it is very easy to do.
