Meh, kill me or not, buuut..

I really loved this series -- back when it was first released. I picked Twilight up because I really liked the cover of the book. At the time I read it, I wasn't even that much into vampire novels, so I thought it was good, if a bit cliché. But now everywhere I go people go on and on about Edward being the most magnificent thing ever and at this point I'm not even excited about the next book.... and the movie is going to be absolutely horrible; they've already changed so much it's hardly the same story (just listen to kristen stewart's interviews; it's awful).

It was a good series at first, but she really needs a better editor to catch her many spelling and grammatical errors, and I don't know, I think the people that say this is the best vampire novel ever.. haven't read very many vampire novels. As was mentioned before, give Anne Rice or Amelia Atwater-Rhodes a try before calling this the best vampire series. Twilight series, with its flat and predictable characters, is the best only when you have nothing else to compare it to.

I know people are going to hate me for saying that, but ooohwelll. I'm still going to watch the movie (i work at a theater so i have to screen it anyway), and I'm definitely going to read Breaking Dawn, but what I mean to say is that, in my opinion, having read many, many vampire novels and series since Twilight, this one isn't worth the hype that it's been getting mostly over the past year. And I've noticed a pattern in that most of the people -- in my area, at least -- that have been reading Twilight since the very beginning, when it was very first released, agree with me.

But, on a positive note, I live in Phoenix in the area that she describes Bella as having lived in, and so that makes me very, very happy that Phoenix was mentioned. But I guess it's not a good thing if my favorite part of the book is the brief mention of Arizona..?

And, just to avoid death, I'll say:

!!!MAJOR SPOILER FOR THOSE THAT HAVE NOT FINISHED ECLIPSE!!!




Edward does in fact belong with Bella, but the ending of Eclipse made me feel very, very, very, very sad for Jacob and I read the last paragraph about two hundred times before accepting that he had run away, given that he was my favorite character, next to Jasper. And because of this, most of my motivation for continuing to read this series is that I want him to have a good ending, because so far, his side of this story really, sincerely, genuinely sucks.



!!!END OF MAJOR SPOILER!!!

To further please the posters of the board, I am interested in Midnight Sun.. because I think it might be able to add depth to Edward's perfectly boring character...

And The Host is nice, too.

In conclusion, I admire everyone's dedication and obsession to Stephenie Meyer's Twilight series.

Thank you, if you allow me to live. If not, well, that sucks.
I know what you mean, Edward is honestly kinda boring and i much preferred Jacob.(I hope he gets a happy ending) I dont usually like romance books or vampire books but i really like this series because of the writing style. I like the humor and there are some truly sweet moments. Honestly im dreading the movie because its gonna ruin all the things i loved about the books! Anyway sorry for the rant.

Yeah, even though I don't think it's the best and it has some errors (I mean, every book has errors, so eh) it has a unique kind of style that has kept me reading for this long, and I can't stop now without knowing what will become of Jacob Black.

There are plenty; I'm pretty sure that Eclipse had the most that I noticed. I would get a specific example or two or three or five, but my book is with my bff right now.

EDWARD CULLEN IS SOO MUCH BETTER THAN JACOB BLACK!! i'd still prefer edward's romantic and gentleman-ish image than jacob's rough and conceited outlook. i mean, he's such a baby! no offense to his fans but Edward is still number one on my list!

I didn't want to quote the entire thing, but I agree with most everything Hatyou said in that long text. But, I'm a typical Edward fangirl, I favor the main love interest over the second guy who makes it a love triangle. So, I hate Jacob. HATE.
My excitement for Breaking Dawn has died down from when I first finished Eclipse ("first finished"? lol) but my friend - who's also a Twilight maniac - told me about a midnight prom/party that's happening at my local Barnes and Noble for the release of Breaking Dawn. I'm definately going, because I've been to the Midnight Harry Potter releases as well (major Harry Potter freak >< ) and they were really fun. So, my excitement has been renewed, and I'm anxoiusly awaiting August 2nd.
