Vampires? Teen's who really know what they want? Nah! September 5, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
So, OK, I read that this series was as popular with tweens and teens as the Potter books. I read the first one. Won't read the rest [though will probably go see the movie based on Twilight.] I've been around too many teens and too many tweens for way too long to be able to feel comfortable with the characterization of the protagonist. She may be in love, but I've not yet had the honor of meeting a girl that willing to endure pain and distancing from her peers. . . even though she is a LONER. [Her individuality is played up nicely, but the 9,000 or so I've known over the past 50 years, usually aren't as individualistic as they think.] She turns away from a loving father, a new place to live with new friends etc., and that is understandable given her non-prefrontal lobe development and age of 17, but to accept the physical and mental pain and stress is more than I can accommodate. I don't recommend this one. The writing seems a bit unpolished as well. Though I did like the imaginative details and set up of the vampires.
Wow! Could Not Put The Book Down September 5, 2008 Hey! I am 37 years old and totally loved this book! I couldn't put the book down. What a romantic story. Not your average vampire story line. A very good book to take to the beach.
Twilight September 5, 2008 I was kind of hesitant to buy the book due to all the fuss, and having been a reader of the Anne Rice's Vamire Chronicles I was afraid I would be disappointed. I was not. This is young adult fiction to be sure but it was fun, and was not just a rehash of the same old vampire myths. It is first love but with a vampire. It does lack the richness of Anne Rice's writing but it was fun and entertaing which is why I read fiction.
gets a kid to read September 5, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I saw this book on television and decided to buy it for one of my grandsons, whom is not a reader. Well, he finished this book, i bought him the seocnd one, he finished that one also, so he is now on his third book by in the series. I highly recommend buying the book for your teenage non reader. It could open up a whole new world to him/her.
DON'T STOP KEEP THIS GOING!!!!!! September 5, 2008 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS SERIES!!!! I have completely and totally fell in love with EDWARD and all of the characters of this series. It will make you laugh, cry, sad, scared, excited, worried, feel adored, and all of the above. I have never felt this way about a series of books in my life. After it was done I felt empty as if I just broke up with a boyfriend or something. A co-worker and I were reading them at the same time and we both just have felt lost. We need more.... She and I have been looking and can't find anything that comes close to the experience of reading this series. And she has read thousands of books. I hope that Stephanie Meyer doesn't leave her fans out there too long waiting for the next phenomenal series to start. We MISS EDWARD!!! (and Bell too)This is a MUST READ!!! If you don't enjoy this book you are insane!!!!
