I actually really enjoyed this lol
I read after having seen the film for the first time in a while recently and it was a lot better than the movie which could be why I liked it so much.
Edward had a personality and he’s much better developed as a character compared to the movie. I found Bella way less annoying although at times she irritated me I though their romance was fairly well written and reading about the Cullens was a highlight for me regarding their family dynamic.
It took me about 60 pages to get really into it but then the story just sucked me in, the warms building was decent and the story was fast paced and compelling. It was a nice bit of escapism considering I don’t really read fantasy that often and I find it hard to get into. The writing was easy to read although I found the language a bit odd sometimes (probably cause it was written in 2005) but still.
Overall an enjoyable exciting read with romance, tension and a good amount of suspense. I will be reading the entire series now.
