Reviews Literature / Twilight

Twilight: meh.

I've only read the first book, Twilight, so far. So I'm going to review that book. The series as a whole will wait until I've read it.

Twilight, as a book, honestly confuses me. When I read it, I find myself reading for at least an hour at a time, dissolving about 150 pages each time I start it. When reading it, I honestly think I enjoy it.

But when I'm out of my reading daze and actually think through the book, I find it sub-par. The writing is about equal to a 14-year-olds and the plot needs work. I can't find much depth or attachment to many of the characters. I seem to have randomly bonded to Alice of all characters.

But I can enjoy the book. That means that it must have something, though I currently can't imagine what.

Before people start yelling at me for treating it differently because it's popular; yes, I do. I only read it because I wanted to be able to give an accurate review of it. I take it more seriously than I would if I had just picked i unknowingly off a shelf. So, to appease everyone; If I had not known what Twilight was, I probably would have found it in a library, the cover is the type that would catch my eye. In fact, both my older sisters were fans of it (though they both agree it doesn't deserve to be popular) Anyway. If I had found it randomly on a shelf, I probably would've read the whole series in a week, obsessed over it for two weeks, and then it would pretty much completely fade out of my life in the next week. It's a meh book, cute when it's a random novel you just read and return to the library, but definitely not deserving a massive amount of attention.
