I did it. Read the first book. Angie was right, I was both totally into it and rolling my eyes. It was pretty good, pretty good, then got kind of boring about three-fourths of the way through, then got REALLY intense. Now after reading the first one I do think it's a little... mmm... shall we say different that my 37-year old male boss loves the books... but I'm going to read the next one anyway. As soon as I get it from my mom's house.
The only thing that would ruin this book for me is that they were so in LOVE, so unconditionally and lifetimely committed after a few short days. Doesn't happen. Puh-lease. I didn't like his temper either.
But who doesn't fantasize about being adored by an out-of-this-world-good-looking vampire who takes exceptional care of you and is extremely dangerous for you? Especially one that no one else could get? I sure do, I tell you what!

I read most of them too...Until the 4th book. It was so horrible I couldn't even finish it. I was really disappointed. Sometimes it's just fun to see the hype and what everyone is obsessing about. I guess I'm part of the minority who doesn't have "I (heart) Edward" all over my blog!!!
It is so true, I had such a hard time reading the books, they pull you into the plot as you are rolling the eyes. Glad to hear someone else thought the same thing!
Oh, and Have a very Merry Christmas filled with tons of love and laughs!
If Stephany Meyer can pull in a male 37 year old, most teenage girls, and an old lady like me, she's a very talented writer. I loved the books. Even the 4th one.
