'New Moon' by Stephenie Meyer - Hachette Books
In Stephenie Meyer's New Moon, March 19th was a date of some significance - St. Marcus Day, the day when St. Marcus supposedly rid the Italian city of Volterra of all vampires (though secretly allowed for the Volturi vampires to hide out in the city without curiosity). The town of Volterra teemed with red as Bella and Alice raced through the streets to get to the would-be self-sacrificing Edward Cullen.
In honor of this intricate but important detail to the New Moon novel that some of us fans would like to see on screen, and to show your support for a faithful book-to-film translation of New Moon by Chris Weitz (one which would have Robert Pattinson amidst a sea of garnet and red-clothed celebrants of St. Marcus Day, with Kristen Stewart and Ashley Greene, as Bella Swan and Alice Cullen, fighting against this sea of red to make it to Edward before the clock strikes twelve) wear something red this Thursday, March 19th.
Wear your red on Thursday and send your photos to thetwilightexaminer@gmail.com! Also, please comment below whether you plan to participate!

I am definitely wearing red! St Marcus Day is a very important day!
Heck ya im going to wear red! Count me in!
I find it interesting that Stephenie Meyer chose March 19th as St. Marcus day when it reality, it is St. Joseph day and is heavily celebrated in Italy. Today is also considered Father's day here in Italy.
