I am dead tired today (please don't tell my boss) because I stayed up past midnight reading "Breaking Dawn," the fourth book in the "Twilight" series.
I just don't get it. I don't understand why these books are so popular. There was a little bit of action in each book, but way too much conversation and way too little character development. By the fourth book, I really didn't care who lived and who died. I just wanted it to be over!
Here are some books in the science fiction/fantasy genre that I heartily recommend instead of "Twilight":
"The Giver" by Lois Lowry
"The Traveler" by John Twelve Hawks
"Interview With the Vampire" by Anne Rice
"The Time Traveler's Wife" by Audrey Niffenegger
"His Dark Materials" triology by Philip Pullman
"A Canticle for Leibowitz" by Walter M. Miller Jr.
