This is fine. Sure, there are a lot of corny moments at the point of cringe, but still okay. I don't like the super long chapters; not a fan.

Bella has a funny mind. She's opinionated, clumsy, and awkward and I love that. I also like that she reads books for fun. Oh, I also love the part where she prepares and cooks in the kitchen a lot of times.

Edward on the other hand is toxic basically. The horrors of the vampire life aren't mentioned that much, it might have been interesting.

Jacob was chill and funny.✨

By the way, didn't Bella even realize that she might have liked or loved Edward because it's part of the vampire stuff? I mean, teenage hormones, I guess? But yeah, I sensed that she had a death wish.

Poor Charlie, he had no idea.

Oh well, thanks, Stephenie❤️

Decided to reread this, I read it in middle school and used to be a fan but decided to revisit. Whether you like or hate it, its such a landmark in pop culture; I never take it seriously, it’s a fun read if you just like shallow paranormal romances.

It finally happened. I gave a book (less than) 1 start. I really don't understand how this became so popular. It's terrible. I hated every single minute of it

Bella is boring and annoying as fuck. Her narration is so bland. She just rambles on and on and on, and doesn't have one useful thought. And just repeats everything for each day. She went to school, drove her old barely functioning noisy car. Talked with Edward and wondered where Edward is. Talked with two of her friends but she's so much smarter than everyone, except Edward. She came home, cooked dinner.
It felt like I was reading 3 same conversations over and over and over again for 400 pages.

Edward said he is very scary and she should stay away from him. And she just refuses to listen to him and does exactly opposite. If a guy himself tells you he's walking, talking red flag in every conceivable way, chances are he's right and you should run in opposite way. And he has one facial expression - smirk or crooked smile.

This is a guidebook of how to get into toxic relationship and how to be manipulative, gaslighting boyfriend. (It's no wonder why everyone idolises Rhys now.) Edward puts her in terrible situations and somehow she ends up apologising to him. And he constantly gaslights her about anything and everything. And keeps asking her if she's scared of him, and she should be scared of him because he's very scary. And then he proceeds to throw stuff around and she just stays with him. Bella is sooo in love with him, she would literally die for him after like three months. And she really, really wants to become a vampire so she could be with him forever.

Anyways, if it isn't obvious from this very lovely review, I'll continue reading this.
