Chronicle To Books The Twilight Collection (The Twilight Saga #1-3)
stephenie meyer, i spit in your general direction. i started the series because they are the obsession of every twelve year-old girl i work with, i finished them because i wanted to be able to condemn them with a clear conscience. i take no issue with explicit vampire lovin', but i cannot stomach such young impressionable minds spooning up the idiocy of this accident prone mortal girl who can't make it through a day without being rescued by her obsession/saviour/boyfriend... who is so beautiful beyond reason that the author had to spend pages upon pages outlining the details of his perfection. barf. the entire second book is about how she's so heartbroken she can't even remember to feed herself. vomit. her life is so messed up because she's in love with a vampire and her best friend the werewolf is in love with her, oh it's all so complicated. retch. her life will just be perfect if only she's made immortal and of course oh so devastatingly beautiful. hurl. she's really a forward thinking girl but somehow ends up married and pregnant at eighteen and couldn't be more delighted. okay, i'm running out of synonyms for throwing up. needless to say, i'm not keen on feeding such garbage to anyone, let alone those who don't have the maturity to see it for what it is- the literary equivalent of a pop-tart laced with cyanide.Rating Containing Books The Twilight Collection (The Twilight Saga #1-3)

These books are very well written and great for Young Adult readers. I fell in love with the first book, and couldn't wait to get my hands on the next ones. The first in the series is being made into a movie to come out this December, and the author is a Chandler native.

Ah, Twilight. You were much more fun when I was a thirteen year old obsessed with vampires. Isnt that the way with most of these vampire romance novels, though? Our young selves loved them but as we grow, we realise what a mistake we made for having such an obsession. Yes, not my most shining moment.
The characters in this series are very engaging, which is why reading the trilogy was a breeze. I thoroughly enjoyed the books and am glad I took the time to find out more about "that BYU author from Provo." I also read this book after finishing Bram Stoker's Dracula, which made for some interesting vampire comparisons. Alas, I was disappointed to find numerous errors in the books, something you shouldn't have to encounter even from a small publisher (that made millions just from the first
So. I just read the first three "Twilight" books, and I'm not moving onto the fourth in the near future, because I need to clear my head of all this tsuris. :PSo let's clear everything up right away. The "Twilight" books are horrible. Horrible writing (seriously, did we have to go through *every step* of Bella's days?) Horrible characterization- (honestly, Bella's "intuition" had to do with how quickly Stephenie wanted to unveil a plot point that the readers could already guess at anyway.)
A sweet and clean romantic series with a lot of conflict. When I tell my husband the story is of a girl who falls in love with a vampire and becomes friends with a werewolf it sounds rather corny, but the series is not as you feel the frustrations and agony of the main character, Bella. The series draws you in as you wonder how Bella will resolve the conflict between her friends, between this world and the supernatural and the love she feels for Edward, her friend Jacob and her family. The sweet
This review gets five stars only because I have been drawn into the world Meyer has created. Despite all my inner workings I actually like the story. The writing isn't spectacular, but it's the story itself that folds you in and holds you.I'll admit it, I've read the series more than once. The second time was just pure pleasure. I was unwilling to leave the little world Meyer had created. The third (yes I know, I'm letting my nerd flag fly high here!) was to try and figure out WHY I enjoyed it
