Well it has its lengths, but it’s still great writing overall. I read it mainly because after reading book 1, I realised how much the movies are dropping and with that background the story makes a lot more sense and gains in depth beyond a crazy teenage infatuation. That’s also the reason I’m probably read the rest of them, there’s a lot more character development on the other characters as well, which adds so much to the story arc, and for fans of the movies, which I admit I am, because it is still a great love story and for some, Bella is a relatable character in her antisocial weirdness :-)
