''The Host'' was a bestseller and got a film adaptation, but the latter was a flop at the box office, no sequels have materialised and it's largely overshadowed by ''Twilight'''s popularity.

* {{Doorstopper}}: She tends to write long books. Her debut novel, ''Twilight'', isn't too hefty (544 pages hardback, 498 pages paperback), though its unusually long for a young adult novel. The sequels are all over 500 pages long, with ''Breaking Dawn'' clocking in at 700 pages (the paperback edition that is; the hardback edition has 756 pages), making it her longest novel to date. Both of her non-''Twilight'' books are also over 600 pages in length. The exceptions are ''Life and Death'' (which is only 400 pages) and the novella ''The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner'' (just under 200 pages).

* CreatorBacklash: She experienced a bit of this in regards to ''Twilight'', stating in 2013 that she was "so over" it and even going so far as to say that the only new material she'd write for the series for would be "three paragraphs on my blog saying which of the characters died". It's indicated this was less out of regret for writing ''Twilight'' as opposed to her wanting to move onto to other projects and getting tired of her other works being overshadowed by it. She later softened her stance, releasing ''Life and Death'' in 2015 for ''Twilight'''s [[MilestoneCelebration 10th anniversary]] and completing ''Midnight Sun'' in 2020, after which she announced she had plans to write more ''Twilight'' novels.

Added DiffLines:

* SlidingScaleOfIdealismVsCynicism: Most of her books tend to lean more towards the idealistic side; even if bad things happen to the characters they usually get a happy ending (the last chapter of ''Breaking Dawn'' is even titled "{{Happily Ever After}}"), ThePowerOfLove often triumphs over all, and her works don't tend to dwell too much on grimmer subjects. It's to the point that ''The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner'' sticks out from the rest of her work for being [[DarkerAndEdgier much bleaker and more violent]] with a ShootTheShaggyDog ending, although this was a ForegoneConclusion for anyone who has read ''Eclipse''.
