Nightlight: A Parody | The Harvard Lampoon
10 posts | 18 read | 4 to read
About three things I was absolutely certain. First, Edwart was most likely my soul mate, maybe. Second, there was a vampire part of himwhich I assumed was wildly out of his controlthat wanted me dead. And third, I unconditionally, irrevocably, impenetrably, heterogeneously, gynecologically, and disreputably wished he had kissed me. And thus Belle Goose falls in love with the mysterious and sparkly Edwart Mullen in the Harvard Lampoons hilarious send-up of Twilight. Pale and klutzy, Belle arrives in Switchblade, Oregon looking for adventure, or at least an undead classmate. She soon discovers Edwart, a super-hot computer nerd with zero interest in girls. After witnessing a number of strange eventsEdwart leaves his tater tots untouched at lunch! Edwart saves her from a flying snowball!Belle has a dramatic revelation: Edwart is a vampire. But how can she convince Edwart to bite her and transform her into his eternal bride, especially when he seems to find girls so repulsive? Complete with romance, danger, insufficient parental guardianship, creepy stalker-like behavior, and a vampire prom, Nightlight is the uproarious tale of a vampire-obsessed girl, looking for love in all the wrong places. From the Trade Paperback edition.

I honestly did not like this book. I enjoy reading subtle satire and was hoping this was what I would get. This is just a little to in your face for my liking. I also had a problem with how unconnected everything was. I was more confused than entertained by what I'm sure would be humorous. It's possible I didn't like it because I did enjoy the Twilight Saga and didn't pick up on what was supposed to be funny.

My newest book-adjacent purchase 🤓 My anxiety makes it so I can't sleep without some form of light in the room, but I've been working with a counselor and have gotten it down to just a dim nightlight. I made this purchase as a reward to myself and I LOVE it! It's quite small, but so pretty! Special cameo by Cameo 😸

jessberk13 Omg I was just gifted this yesterday! It‘s so neat! 6y
Mdargusch I love this! 6y

I just got this "book" lamp. It folds completely closed to turn off, but when you open it up the "pages" give off light, like so. It's silly how charmed I am by this. Hey, it's been a weird week and I'll take my pleasures wherever I can find them.

And a little comedy. Someone has to parody stories and this book was a little too long for a good Mad magazine parody (although I'm sure they did a fine job with the movie). 😜

I don't really feel guilty about it, but I absolutely love parodies of famous novels. #GuiltyPleasures #MarchIntoReading

Last #bookhaul for the month with tonight's thrift store finds 💝

Yamich49 Nice finds! I've been wanting to read The Diviners- but have yet to find it at any used bookstores I go to. 🙄 8y
Merethebookgal Wool is awesome! 8y
queerbookreader @Yamich49 This is an ARC! There were a weirdly large number of ARCs in the sci-fi section tonight 😳 I read a book from a series of hers a zillion years ago so I decided to see how this one is! 8y

Yamich49 @lemonlime799 An ARC? That's awesome. How random that there were so many of them! I like Libba Bray's writing so I've been meaning to read this one and the one after it but I haven't gotten to it yet. 8y
coffeenebula Yeah, Wool! 8y
BekahB Awesome finds! 😃 8y
[DELETED] 1409720085 I love "The Diviners" so much! The second book was a bit "meh" for me but the first is just ❤️❤️❤️. 8y
