LOVED IT! I'm not sure if I would have liked this as much written as I did the audio. Perhaps I would have liked it even more. I just can't tell. I thought the character development was very well done. I could picture each of them very well. The only real complaint I have is that the heroine did become tiresome after a while and since the book was so long, she did get on my nerves a LOT! But I got past it because the story itself was worth it.
The story wasn't bad, really drawn out (Meyer is an expert at that) but I couldn't stand the voice of the audio. She stressed words very strangely and it was awkward to listen to.
I actually could not get into the actual book, so I decided to listen to it instead. Boy, am I glad I did! Great reading and writing on Stephanie Meyer's part. Book was beyond believable.
Not a bad book - I really appreciate something new. Meyer takes a sci-fi subject and creats a heart-felt tale. That being said, the self-sacraficial melodrama does get old quick, but it does not detract from the story too much. I enjoyed this book MUCH more than the Twilight series!
