I was reluctant to join the whole "Twilight" craze.
All I had ever heard of it were comments from horomone-crazed tweenage girls. And all they did was swoon over "Edward."
So, in aggravation, I avoided the whole topic.
Eventually, I spoke to more educated individuals on the matter. A girl that worked at a book store provided me with a very intellectual view on the saga.
Admittedly, she piqued my interest.
So I watched the movie, to see what all the fuss was about.
Because I'm cheap, I watch bootlegged versions of movies online on my computer.
Because of the poor quality, I couldn't fully understand what was going on -- such as when Edward steps into the sunlight and begins glowing.
So I got the books to understand.
The books are well written, but repetitive.
"He's gorgeous and mysterious, and I'm plain..." seems to be the reoccuring theme.
Right along with "I can't believe I have him, I don't deserve him..."
The book was written so well, that I decided to stick with it.
Stephanie Meyers is extremely gifted when it comes to putting words together.
After reading the entire saga, I was glad I had.
The story was definitely addicting at certain points.
Though I was disappointed in the fourth book when...
That was the only part I considered a let down.
Though Bella's self-consciousness made me want to smack her.
Furthermore, the Twilight saga is like the new Harry Potter.
It's getting younger children eager to read, which in itself is exciting.
It's coinsedence that Rob Pattinson(sp?) played both Cedric Diggory and Edward Cullen.
But if I meet him one day, I plan to tell him that he looks exactly like the guy that played Cedric Diggory. Just to be a pain. :p
Overall, I'd give the saga a four out of five.
I enjoyed it.
...and just because I know it's a popular subject...
I'm so on Team Jacob. And Team Emmett.
Edward was always too serious for me.
At least Jacob and Emmett had a constant sense of humor throughout the novels.
