It's a hit or miss depending on the reader's taste. I personally loved it.

First person narrative. I usually hate it, because I hate the narrator, but not in this case. Her writing style is also easy to read and follow.

Bella is just another awkward teenager with a love for classic literature and desire to stay away from teenage drama except if we're talking about Edward Cullen. Some may say that it's exaggerating emotions and situations, but do keep in mind that it's about a teenage girl's first (and last) love and that some people live emotions more intensely than others. I don't, but maybe that's why I liked it so much.
