im actually soooooooo normal about twilight
ok so confession - i have never read twilight before. or seen the movies.
until 2024.
FUCK THAT WAS GOOD???
now i will say. yes the book is cringe at points. like when edward literally eats bella's tears.
and also meyer is um. Odd! like calling jacob "indian"....... Erm!
but i did in fact gobble this book up so. i think im at fault here.
i don't know why i was so addicted to this book but i swear to god its laced with crack.
ummmm i actually cant put how i feel into words.
the ending ate, the story ate, the characters ate (shout out alice u remind me i like women), the pacing, everything (minus the cutesy-cringe moments & the microaggressions....)
i hate you alastair because im an addict. i need my next twilight fix.

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.

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.

Reading Twilight for the first time is a bit of a beast, as it carries a lot of cultural baggage on its shoulders. When I started, it took some time to try and forget about it, because underneath the major cultural phenomenon of Twilight is just a normal YA romance. It's not something of major literary merit, it's also not garbage.

I had a good time reading the book, picturing how I would adapt it.

Such a hard book to rate. We all know it's not a great piece of literature, and Meyer's racism and obsession with weird age gaps definitely depreciates the quality of the literature that is there. But it is so fun. I had a blast reading it. It's silly, very of-it's-time, funny at parts, and a very interesting take on vampires. The background characters are far more interesting than Bella and Edward. I read this for class but I am tempted to read the rest of the series again.
