Yes, THAT Vampire Series

Twilight by Stephenie Meyer

New Moon by Stephenie Meyer

Eclipse by Stephenie Meyer

Breaking Dawn by Stephenie Meyer

September 4, 2023 by krisbholland 3 Comments

It’s okay to admit it – you have an opinion about the Twilight series, just like everyone else on Earth. Whether you love it or hate it, you’ve probably spent longer than you’d like to thinking about the folks up in Forks. I resisted the pull of these horny teenage vampires for years before finally giving in to my girlfriend’s plea to watch the movies with her. It only took thirty minutes of Kristen Stewart looking bored and Robert Pattinson looking constipated to make me […]

Midnight Sun

This is definitely not my brand of heroin…

Midnight Sun by Stephenie Meyer

September 16, 2021 by postcardsandbooks 5 Comments

I think this officially marks the end of the week of finishing my bingo-inspired bad choices. Well let’s be honest, I can’t really blame bingo for this one. Allow me to thoroughly embarrass myself for a moment:15 years ago, I was really into Twilight. I mean really into it, in a pre-ordering-the-books-as-they-came-out, getting-involved-in-fandom-on-LiveJournal,-reading-and-writing-fanfiction,-taking-the-train-to-Belgium-to-watch-the-movie-on-opening-weekend-because-it-took-a-couple-of-months-for-it-to-get-to-the-theater-in-France kind of way. And to be honest, I regret nothing. I made some pretty good friends during that time and even if I can acknowledge all the problematic things about it, I loved […]

In which I spurn the vox populi, and try to find a light in the darkness

September 4, 2016 by ingres77 10 Comments

It’s weird, writing this review. Not because I’m struggling to put into words the thoughts and feelings I have about this book, but because I never thought I’d be here. I’d never thought I’d have to be here, reviewing Twilight. I never thought I’d be in a place where I’ve read Twilight. But I am, and it’s all Rainbow Rowell’s fault. To recap: I first read Landline and, like all rational humans, absolutely loved it. Before I even digested the majesty of Rowell’s word soup, […]

Maybe she’s not the best role model

July 29, 2016 by Sophia 3 Comments

Yeah, I’m not ashamed to admit that I’ve read all fourTwilight books by Stephenie Meyer. I was curious what all the fuss was about–both positive and negative–and they were easy to read. The Host (2008), on the other hand, was a selection by my book club. It wasn’t something I would have chosen to read on my own, but I was also curious to see Meyer’s take on science fiction. ***Beware of spoilers ahead. I believe that anyone who was actually interested in this book must have […]
