How do you feel about it?

If you like it, what makes you?

If you don't like it, what's not good about it?

Personally, I tried to read it but it just didn't catch my interest. I couldn't get into it.

I did like it, not because of all the hype though.

I sat back and started to read it at first it wasn't getting my attention but after a while you seems to start being connected with characters as you got to know them.

The story itself just took me away, and it take a lot for a book to do it.

I love these books. I could care less that they are popular. They suck you in and you feel like a part of the story. Plus it is always a bonus when you fall in love with the characters.

My students told me about this book, so I picked it up and started reading it while I was making dinner one night. I almost burned dinner! It was a good thing my husband was out of town, because I couldn't put it down! I like it because it's easy to relate to the point of view (a strong female character who is romantic yet logical). Some people would have trouble with the abundance of dialogue and the very feminine point of view, but I really enjoyed the whole series, including 12 chapters of Midnight Sun.

I read the first and second book, Twilight and New Moon and loved them both! I fell in love with Bella, Edward, Jacob, and Alice. I can't wait to start reading Eclipse! These are the first books in a long time that have really captured me totally!

I also read Midnight Sun (story as told from Edwards point of view) and enjoyed it also.

I hear that the movie "New Moon" will be coming out this fall? Anyone else hear anything about this fact?

I did not see the movie Twilight this holiday season but I have heard that it follows the book pretty well.

i love twilight! is one the best books that i've ever read. actually in the beginning i thought that i wouldn't like it very much because of the all romance thing (i'm not very fond of romantic stuff because there's always the same plot- boy falls in love with the girl, they break up, reunite etc). when i start reading the first book although, i couldn't take my eyes off it. it was amazing and i got really into it. to finish the first book, took me 3 days and the second took me 4 days. tomorrow i'm going to start the third. believe me, you will fall in love with these books because they're just awesome....!!!!

I love Twilight and the whole saga, I couldn't put them down, it was like a really good addiction. The New moon is suppose to come out in 2010, I hadn't picked up the books until after I had seen the movie (wanted to read it prior too but really wasn't into the whole vampire thing, wasn't sure how I would feel about it). After I had seen the movie I was hooked (my friend who went with me said the movie was disappointing, she had already read the books) and after I sat down and read twilight I was totally disappointed in the movie also it left so much out! If you like these, you should try the Black Dagger Brotherhood, (a little bit more of an adult fiction instead of junior fiction) I have become addicted to these books also, they just draw you in and make you feel like you are part of the story, like you are the main character.

I didn't like the saga. I read it all the way tho. I didn't experience any "getting sucked in to it"-feelings. It's not that the story isn't catching but I've read alot more well-written stories before. Even better Romance novels x)
I think that these books would have worked for me better as movies. I just didn't like the way it was written.
One exception there is. I found myself enjoying Breaking dawn alot more than the others. It was by far, the best.
