I recently spent a vacation week plowing through the first three books in Stephenie Meyer's "Twilight" series.
I found the books overwritten and overwrought for the most part. Way too much dialogue for me and I didn't find any of the characters all that compelling.
Still, there was enough action to propel me on to the fourth book.
I've heard so much good stuff about this series. Is there anyone out there who feels the way I do about Bella, Edward and Jacob ... sorta lukewarm?
No.
I'm so glad someone else feels the same way. I feel like people think I'm some crazy person when I say that I think the books are ok, but not particularly well written.
