Twilight fans…take a deep breath… Stephenie Meyer has a new book coming out!

Little, Brown Books for Young Readers will release “The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner” on June 5.

The novella is told from the viewpoint of Bree, a newborn vampire featured in “Eclipse.” That’s one of the books in Meyer’s best-selling teen-vampire saga.

Meyer says in a statement Tuesday the novella had originally been planned for “The Twilight Saga: The Official Guide.” But she says it became too long to fit into the guide.

The publisher says one dollar for each book sold in the U.S. from the first printing of 1.5 million copies will be donated to the American Red Cross International Response Fund. It supports disaster relief effortssuch as those in Haiti and Chile.

Stephenie Meyer

On the eve of what is building to be the biggest release since the last Harry Potter book, USA Today has a piece on the creator of the Twilight phenomenon, Stephenie Meyer. No one knows anything about Breaking Dawn, but I have been hearing snippets about weddings and the toning down of violence in the latest installment. I guess we will all have to wait and see. Having just started to read Twilight and being noticeably behind on the saga, I’m hoping that people keep spoilers to themselves.

According to Laura Miller’s article on the Twilight phenomenon, the series has a predominantly female fan base. However, a 19-year-old radio show host has launched a blog called Twilight Guy, chronicling his experiences reading the books. It is a very humorous take on one man’s experience reading the insanely popular series. I have yet to drink the Twilight Kool Aid…maybe I should pack this book for my next trip to the beach. I might as well see what all the fuss is about.
