3.0

I don't know how to rate these anymore...
In book 1 and 2 it was mainly Bella who was absolute bananas. This whole book is a complete madhouse. And frankly I myself feel like I'm going slightly crazy.
Anyhow. I was quite disappointed at the ending.

It felt like a lot of buildup for little to no climax. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad it had a happy ending. I think the Cullen family deserves all the happiness in the world, so you won't hear me complain about that part. But a couple of fights, some people getting hurt wouldn't have been so bad? I'm sure some heart wrenching moments could've fit somewhere in there

I'm glad I read the whole series, because oooh boy, what a crazy ride. All there's left to do is read 'Midnight Sun' and reread the first book again (which is, in my humble opinion, the best book in the series).

1.0

700+ pages of unlikable characters doing nothing of interest until a climax is being built up, which never ends up happening. Nothing is resolved by the end. Main villains get away scot-free. Main characters are still godawful. What did you expect, it's a <i>Twilight</i> book.

I like the Twilight Saga. It's weird and super fun. I wouldn't take it as seriously as other people who critique it. This particular book was not my favorite though.
