Reading Twilight for the first time is a bit of a beast, as it carries a lot of cultural baggage on its shoulders. When I started, it took some time to try and forget about it, because underneath the major cultural phenomenon of Twilight is just a normal YA romance. It's not something of major literary merit, it's also not garbage.

I had a good time reading the book, picturing how I would adapt it.
