I mostly found it enjoyable to read as I've never read any of the Twilight saga but I feel that this is just an elongated spark notes for the series. As it's very much just 'here's a set of pages for each character' and 'here's a section detailing the cars every character drives' and 'here's some bullet points of the plot chapter by chapter book by book.' Like I don't understand why anyone who has read the series would read this except for maybe the crumbs of new info. But it also feels like word of god stuff in that way which I overall despise. 

That said, I do agree with those online who've said that the other Cullens/vampires have way more interesting stories than that between Edward and Bella.
