The book is trash, no doubt, but nostalgia, and Edward’s “Joe Goldberg” tendencies, made this a fun and hilarious read.

I’m giving it a second star because Jake Abel’s narration for the audiobook was superb and made the experience bearable.

Things I liked in this book:

- The backstories of the Cullens
- Alice
- Emmett (who knew he was such a great character)
- the hint at Demisexual representation perhaps?

Things I didn't like:
- the fact that this book made me want to stop reading forever...
- #angstyEdward was insufferable...
- This book was about 300 pages longer than it needed to be... Seriously... We could have just had a short story or novella about the backstories and I would have been here for it.
- rehashing the same events of Twilight from a different perspective wasn't interesting. It was boring.
-Why is this relationship romanticized so much? He's a literal creepy stalker with possessive and narcissistic tendencies.
-Stephenie Meyer really didn't do well trying to hide her racist tendencies.
-She's profiting off of the Quileute tribe and misrepresenting them.

In all seriousness, I think that if you have a personal history with or love for the original saga, you'll probably like this book. But I don't. I never loved the books so going into this there was no nostalgia factor. Because of that, I was honestly just so bored and I'm more than a little relieved to be moving on to the other books in my TBR.
