someone please talk to me about stephanie’s alien theories

Eines Tages hat sich Stephenie Meyers gedacht "Omg ich will ein Buch über Aliens mit dem abgefucktesten Love Rectangle der Welt schreiben!" 
Das ist das Ergebnis. 
Chauvinismus trifft unnötige Gewalt und noch unnötigere Age-gap romance. Grandios. 
Insgesamt eine klassische "Was bin ich sehend?!" - Erfahrung.

I have started this book 3 times, and finally finished it! The book starts out very detailed so if you're at all distracted you won't be able to follow the plot (which is why I've had to try reading it multiple times). However, once you get past the initial confusion of understanding the plot, the book is very detailed and interesting. I don't think Stephanie Meyer quite made the jump from teenage-themed writing of Twilight to adult lit, but it's a good start. Overall interesting, now I want to see the movie!
