1.5 stars.
Okay, logically, I am aware that this was a completely terrible book. Bella was completely useless, and both Edward and Jacob were totally creepy. I cringed so many times while reading this because it was so bad. But I finished the entire series. It was so cheesy and cliche and awful that it was almost enjoyable i guess? But overall I don't understand why people like this book.

I think the first book was the only really bearable one of the series. It all goes downhill from there. Yet, somehow I couldn't stop myself from reading them and I still go see the movies. I have no explanation for this, but I really am not the hugest fan of this series at all. The characters irritate me to no end.

Although I have already watched the movie series a couple of times, this was my first time reading twilight! It went absolutely great! This is a perfect fall read! The gloomy weather and rainy days with random sunshine, it felt like I was with them. I thought it would more cringe and unbearable but honestly, I think Bella is so funny through her thoughts and questionable decisions.
I'm definitely going to continue the series and I have a physical copy of New Moon and I'm very excited to keep going, especially since I'm a big fan of Jacob.

just as unhinged and iconic as ever!!! i've read this many times and only just noticed edward saying he thought music in the 60s and 70s sucked...objectively insane music opinion. comfort read for sure
