A reread because of course I was all up in this series as a teen. Ya know, I didn't hate it this time. I'm reading through the lens of horror and it's kinda working for me. Of course it's angsty and dramatic but Bella is 17, I think we were all at least a little angsty and short-sighted around that age. Obviously I do not care for the promotion of toxic romantic relationships but I do think there's at least something to get out of this series. It's a cultural touchstone whether we like it or not.

I've heard a lot of negative things regarding this book/series online, however I must say that it surpassed my expectations. Maybe I'm just into romance books, but this book got me into reading, frankly enough. I guess it can be a bit cheesy at times, but I personally liked that. I genuinely could NOT stop reading at times, going from not reading a single book to reading this in a mere week - Which is crazy! I definetely recommend this.

“Twilight, again. Another ending. No matter how perfect the day is, it always has to end.”

Perfect quote for the perfect book reading session I just did. Twilight again?!?!?!? The answer is yes. It’s been more than a decade since I last decided to read this book and I knew from memory that I’ve reread this book countless of times during my teenage years and loved it every time. This is why I added an additional tab for “cringe content” - for scenes and lines I sure loved during my teenage years but hate now that I’m an adult. infairness, there was only 5 tabs for that throughout the book so that means I haven’t cringed entirely on this book.

I can see why I loved it back then. I didn’t rate this below 3 so that means something, I still like it. It’s a good fantasy story for young adult, that’s for sure. Bella and Edward was the it book couple during the early 2000s and I can remember why. If it wasn’t for the sparkle during the sun thing, I doubt they’d get hate as much as it did now. I actually enjoyed it even when cringing occasionally.

Reason for rereading: I bought Midnight Sun last few months ago and I need to freshen up my memory on Twilight because the movie doesn’t do justice.

Quite pleased with the overall plot and ending. I don't really like any of the characters (except Alice), but I enjoyed the book regardless. It was a quick read for being almost 500 pages - tempo and structure was solid.

One author complaint would be the adjectives. "Medium build" and "nondescript" and "average looking" are a few that come to mind...

i forgot how cheesy this book is. i definitely enjoyed the nostalgic part of rereading this for the first time since middle school, and i will probably finish the rest of the series while i am at it. however, i also remember this being better from the last time i read it.

the romance aspect is exceptionally cheesy and pretty toxic.

2 teenagers falling in love with each other after 1 kiss and both of them being pined after by every girl and guy and school was very cringey and eye roll inducing. bella being creeped on by every guy under the sun was also ridiculous. shout out to alice for being the best character ever

I only reread this to go through and highlight all the signs of abuse. Almost every page had a highlight on it. No idea why this is still considered a romance novel.
