Twilight




Over the last few weeks I've been reading my way through the Twilight series of novels by Stephenie Meyer. I've just started on Eclipse, so I'm just over halfway through.

I haven't been that impressed so far, to be honest. The writing is basic. There's little depth to the characters or storyline. Bella is irritating, although I can see why teenage girls would find the idea of two guys fighting over her attractive. I don't think it's healthy for her to be so obsessive about her relationship with Edward. I'm jealous that I couldn't think of the idea first, since I'm sure if I had I could have written something equally good and been the one to make a motza out of it.

So why on earth am I finding it so hard to put them down??
