I admit it. I love her books. She's hardly the best writer I've read, but she knows how to spin an interesting tale and create characters I go from loving to hating to loving.

Currently, I'm reading Breaking Dawn. Ridiculous in some ways, but interesting and I'm loving it more than I did Eclipse, which is probably by least favorite book in the series.

So addictive.

Still don't really like Bella though.

Hedda (hollytreemom) | 1 comments See, you're much better than I. I can't even bring myself to finish it... though, agreed, Eclipse was the weakest book in the series.

Laura (burningchaos) | 6 comments I am more uninterested then foe. I tried to read Twilight when it first came out and just couldn't get into it.

Amy Ravenel I really enjoyed Twilight. I found myself wrapped up in the story and the blush of first love (or obsession). But I didn't like the sequels.

Personally, I think New Moon and Breaking Dawn are neck and neck for the weakest ones.

Azar | 6 comments Put me down as another disinterested one. From what I've heard about the series I don't have any desire to read it, but I wouldn't consider myself a "foe" (or friend) without having actually read the books and formed an informed opinion. Since that's not something I'm likely to do... *g*

Sophie I found that the series had some huge ups and downs. On a whole I enjoyed the series. However, I have to say that New Moon was a pretty terrible read. I ended up getting bored and just gave up.But when I read Breaking Dawn I was instantly hooked. I really loved how Meyer swapped between the perspectives.

And I agree, I can't stand Bella.
