THE BOOKS REALLY ARE SO MUCH BETTER THAN THE MOVIES! I actually feel so grateful that I watched the movies before reading the books, because since binge-reading this series I have not been able to watch Twilight movies the same.

This series reminded me so much of my pre-teen addiction to Fanfiction.net. I read it over the course of a weekend to get a romantic breakup off my mind. By the end of the series, I felt it had done just that. Entertaining if you are into drama and questionable romance in nostalgic, teenaged way.

I'm gonna give it a star bc I don't think 0 strs count.
I read this when I was young and everyone was reading it, it was highschool my bf was reading it and I needed books. It was the twilight craze! the first movie had come out and Robert pattinson was hot! I read the hole series bc I like Allison and wanted to see what was her story! TRUE
I hated Bella all the way through. She's dumb, passive and pointless! I just can't think of all the words I need to express my feelings towards these series so I'm just gonna leave this here:
DON'T READ IT! look for a book with strong female characters, it doesn't have to be dystopian, just something where the main character is not a girl who decides to do nothing when her vampire boyfriend leaves.

When I originally read Twilight, I was 16 and I absolutely loved it.
Now that I've grown up, I can't believe I ever wasted time on these over glorified books. They are not well written, and Edward and Bella's relationship is incredibly abusive.
Save yourself the trouble and read something that's actually good.

Enjoyable, but quite shallow and with a repetitive use of adjectives.

A bit insipid and immature ~ but an easy beach-read if you're looking for a trip through adolescent fantasy. Fairly entertaining.

As someone who grew up with the movies but didn't read the books until now I am incredibly disappointed that there is no "spider monkey" in this. Other than that though really good if you want a YA vampire book! I liked getting the extra character backstories that weren't in the movie; I found the characters less awkward and more likable.

Oh god oh god oh god - the most awful book I ever read (only read the first one). Awful concept delivered awfully. This book makes me angry!
