Remember in Eclipse, the third novel in the Twilight Saga, when Victoria created an army of baby vampires to avenge James's death? Well, Mormon/vampire groupie Stephenie Meyers has written a novella based on the perspective of one of those baby bloodsuckers, Bree Tanner. The Second Life of Bree Tanner comes out Saturday, June 5. But the Books & Books in Coral Gables is throwing a midnight release party the night before. Come dressed as a milky-skinned Cullen or a bare-chested wolf, and compete for costume prizes. Show off your obsessiveness by winning a Twilight trivia contest, and hear live music by Courtesy of Paco. Then, at the strike of midnight, a copy of the latest in the Twilight Saga will be placed in your sweaty little hands. The Night for Newborns Party will be held at Books & Books. Buy a copy of the novel in advance at any Books & Books location and receive an invite for the midnight release party.
