Such a hard book to rate. We all know it's not a great piece of literature, and Meyer's racism and obsession with weird age gaps definitely depreciates the quality of the literature that is there. But it is so fun. I had a blast reading it. It's silly, very of-it's-time, funny at parts, and a very interesting take on vampires. The background characters are far more interesting than Bella and Edward. I read this for class but I am tempted to read the rest of the series again.

Moderate: Blood, Gaslighting, Sexual harassment, Stalking, and Animal death
Minor: Death of parent, Stalking, Suicide, Forced institutionalization, Terminal illness, Cultural appropriation, Death, and Murder
