I know I promised myself I'd never read Twilight, but a friend of mine (40- something...) gave me a copy of the first one one Wednesday as a late birthday present, so I couldn't say no, right?
*chuckles* I have now read all four and am hooked. Glad I finished them, but I'm glad I read them. It was a very good story. Very. Sappy, yes. Romance, yes. Angst, oh my gosh, yes. But very impressive. Not "well written" really... about average. Easy to read. I read four books, all in one day each. I had a few days between book one and book two. But the story is rather captivating. Waht happens when you fall hopelessly in love with a vampire? This is about the best way I've ever heard of to describe what would happen. And the characters remain... real. Fairy tales, yes... but real. All in all, pretty amazing.
And what I liked the most: a perfect ending. Odd, but perfect. Unlike some people who are trying ot get away from classic fairy tale endings, I happen to like how everything played out for this one.
Now, no one freak, still. I'm not an Edward Cullen fan. His moods swings are too annoying. I do, however, really like his "sister" Alice. *grins* She's awesome.
So anyway... That's that lol
