đđ Welcome back to âKeeping Up with the Cullensâ! Today, Iâm hitting rewind on the story to focus on one of the most intense parts of the saga: when Bella and Edward have to lead James away from Charlie. But Iâm not just talking about the plotâIâm here to praise the *Midnight Sun* audiobook and compare it to both *Twilight* and the *Twilight* audiobook, especially when it comes to those gut-wrenching âGoodbyesâ chapters. Trust me, if you havenât listened to these audiobooks yet, youâre missing out on some serious emotional roller coasters! đ§đ§ââď¸
As you know, I loved *Twilight* years ago. 𼰠Honestly, now Iâm into books like *Outlander* (Jamie Fraser, anyone? đ), but I thought revisiting the *Twilight Saga* as an adult would be funâmaking fun of my old crush, Edward, from my early 20s. đ But here I am, deep-diving into *Midnight Sun* and the audiobooks, and I canât believe how much Iâm analyzing (and still making fun of) this series! Who knew sparkly vampires could still capture my attention? đ§ââď¸â¨
Letâs talk about that âGoodbyesâ chapter in *Twilight*. Youâd think a scene where Bella is forced to lie to Charlie, leave him behind, and run for her life would be dripping with emotion, right? Well, not so much in the audiobook. đŹ Donât get me wrongâno offense to the narrator, Ilyana Kadushin, but her reading of that chapter left me feeling a little... underwhelmed. đ It was like listening to someone reading a grocery list rather than a life-or-death situation. Maybe it was the director's choice, but either way, the emotion just wasnât there. I mean, Bella is supposed to be terrified, desperate, and heartbroken, but the delivery was flat. You need to feel the tension, the fear, the urgencyâand, unfortunately, it didnât quite hit the mark for me. đđ Itâs like Bella was reading her breakup lines off a cue card. Youâd expect more drama from someone whoâs about to fake-break her dadâs heart and then flee from a murderous vampire! đĽ
But OMG, let me tell youâ*Midnight Sun*âs audiobook is a game-changer. đ Jake Abel, who narrates *Midnight Sun*, absolutely nails it. He reads Bellaâs part with so much emotion that itâs like youâre hearing her cry and yell in real-time. And honestly, that chapter needed it! đ The way he brings Bellaâs terror and heartbreak to life is so intense that itâs impossible not to feel it. The difference is night and day. While *Twilight*âs audiobook felt like a distant memory, *Midnight Sun* pulled me right back into the chaos and desperation of that moment. Itâs the perfect example of how a great narrator can completely change the experience of a book. đ§đĽ Jake Abel made me feel like I was in the room with Bella, crying and panicking, and it was everything I didnât know I needed! đ
But it doesnât stop there. Throughout the entire *Midnight Sun* audiobook, Jake Abel is fantastic at switching tones and voices for the different characters. His Edward is spot-onâfull of angst, confusion, and that deep, obsessive love that we all secretly swooned over back in the day. đ He really brought Book Edward to life in a way that makes you understand his internal struggles on a whole new level. Itâs like hearing Edwardâs voice in your head, and suddenly, all those dramatic monologues make perfect sense. Jakeâs performance is so good that it might just make you fall for Edward all over again. đ
â¤ď¸ Itâs like heâs channeling Edwardâs inner drama queen with every wordâseriously, I had flashbacks to all the times I swooned over this sparkly vampire back in the day! đâ¨
I mean, letâs be realâRob Pattinson is the perfect Movie Edward, no doubt. đ¤ But when it comes to the book version of Edward, Jake Abel takes the crown. đ His narration is everything I didnât know I needed from *Midnight Sun*. He captures Edwardâs torment, his love for Bella, and his struggle with his vampire nature in such a compelling way that itâs hard not to get swept up in it all over again. Rob and Jake together would be like the ultimate Edward dream team! đ Imagine Robâs smoldering looks paired with Jakeâs emotional voice actingâmy heart wouldnât survive! đľđ
So, if youâre looking for a way to experience *Midnight Sun* on a whole new level, I highly recommend the audiobook. đ§ And if youâve already read *Twilight* and felt like something was missing, give *Midnight Sun* a listenâyou might just find that the story hits a little harder when you can hear Edwardâs pain, fear, and love in every word. đĽ Trust me, itâs worth the emotional rollercoasterâstock up on tissues and get ready to feel all the feels! đđ˘
I might write one more post about *Midnight Sun*âspecifically that insane car chaseâbefore I move on to *New Moon*. đđ¨ Seriously, the way Edward steals a car like heâs auditioning for *Fast & Furious*âitâs almost too much! Itâs just so over-the-top dramatic that I canât not talk about it. Thereâs just so much more to discuss! đ Until then, keep your eyes peeled for more deep dives into the world of sparkly vampires, teenage drama, and all the things that made us fall in love with this saga in the first place. đŤâ¨

[ID: Cropped screenshot from Libby app, showing a checked out Dune audiobook. The book is "Due in 54 minutes" and the progress bar is at 100%. Full text in the image reads "Finished?" "Dune" "Open Audiobook" "Manage Loan" "Due in 54 Minutes" "100%" "21 hours". The cover of the audiobook reads "Dune" "Read by Simon Vance with Scott Brick, Orlagh Cassidy, Ilyana Kadushin, Euan Morton, Scott Sowers, Oliver Wyman, and more" "Frank Herbert" and a badge reading "Dune: Part Two Now a major motion picture" /end ID]
Don't need adrenaline sports or drugs, I get a rush from winning a game of audiobook chicken with my local library.

Novel Nuggets - Year-end Review Crunch Part II
Novel Nuggets â Year-end Review Crunch Part II
I hate starting the new year with outstanding reviews to write. Twenty reviews. Four days. Itâs crunch time, and itâs going to get ugly. And short. These are not going to be award-winning reviews. Here are the next five. Genevieve Cogman says that The Untold Story is not the end of the series, just the end of the âcurrent season.â All I know is that I consider it a great ending to a belovedâŚ
