Helpful Score: 3
Ok, so i finally broke down and decided to join the bandwagon, for two major reasons...i wanted to see what the hype was all about and a friend of mine told me his wife was a huge fan of the series. I have never been drawn to paranormal romance, though...When the movie was set to come out, i decided to just go for it. I purchased the boxed set at a great deal on walmart.com.
I am in my mid-thirties and was reluctant, as many were due to the "young adult" genre. As it is definately written for that age group, it was thoroughly enjoyable and intriguing. And, yes...i LOVE Edward Cullen. Outside of being a blood-sucking immortal, he is the epitome of what any girl/woman would want in a man. (hahaha) Meyer truly puts you "in the book" with the excellent dialogue and settings. She put me right into the mind and heart of a smart, unique, crush driven teen. She really gets you attached to the characters (mainly Bella and Edward, even all the Cullens).
It's a great tale of love, lust, surrender, and belief. I would recommend it to anyone that feels compelled to read this series. I both can't wait and DREAD to finsih the series, so I have set a goal to read a "non-saga" book or two in between each so that i can build up my "thrist" for another dose....I will however, be rushing out to catch the movie!
