Twilight

When I first picked up this book, my first thoughts were “This is pretty good. Just your typical romance book.” But as I kept re-reading it (and as it became way overrated) my thoughts quickly changed.

I like to first point out the writing. I remember back in second grade when my teacher told me a rule when writing stories: don't put in too much fluff. Obviosly, Ms. Meyer did not follow that rule and put in way way WAY too much fluff in there that it basically fills up the first half the book that in the second part she was probably like “Oh yeah, I almost forgot to put in the main plot!” and put in some random plot and then just covered it up with more fluff.

Now let's get on to the actual story. We first start with our main character Belle Swan, your typical Mary Sue, moving to live with her father Forks. When she starts high school she instently gets friends and boys drooling over her.

Okay..
How does that happen? She just walks right in there and becomes the most popular girl in school? Oh right I forgot. Pretty much every character in this book is described as “perfect”. Even though Belle just so happens to be clumsy and faints from the sight of blood.

But anyway, Belle continues here day as “normal” until she lays her eyes on Edward, a very hot, muscular boy who also is, you guest it, a vampire. And the rest I'm not going to go in full detail. It's pretty much Belle telling us how she is so attractive to him yet Edward won't let them be friends even though he starts to like her to mostly for her smell. Bella also finally finds out the Edward and his “family” are vampires, but tells her that they only drink animal and also sparkle when they're in the sunlight (yeah, I don't think vampires should sparkle either).

Then we finally get to the main plot that was thrown at the last moment. An “evil” vampire name James decides to hunt Bella because he also thinks Bella smells good, I mean good enough to eat. And, well, I think we all know how it ends. Bella gets rescued by Edward. James is destoryed. Everyone lives happily ever after. The End.

Now I do have to admit that I don't mind reading it again and the rest of the books, but have to cringe on how pretty bad it really is.
