We all know that these book series are very problematic. From toxic relationships to cultural appropriation, you have a lot to pick from. But listen, even tho I tried to ignore all that and focus on the writing, the characters and the plot, this was u n r e a d a b l e. The writing felt like this book was the mother of all the bad wattpad novels, while the plot just wasn't there. All the characters were flat with the worst being Bella, who must be the most pathetic main character I have ever had the misfortune to encounter.
I'll end this with the maybe a controversial take:
The movie was better ✌🏻.
