okay idea . . . September 8, 2010 ccwriter1995 This would have been a nice idea, if someone who knew how to write wrote it. The grammarical errors in these books are countless; 102 split infinitives, for those who know what that means. I checked. I've read these books through twice, and although I admit it could be an excellent spin on Romeo and Juliet, I think the writing skill could have been more developed.
Quick and Easy September 7, 2010 Wildgrannie I am a first time user of Amazon. My daughter told me how quick and easy it was to purchase things on Amazon. I am very pleased with how quickly I received my books. I am enjoying reading them one right after the other. Thanks Amazon.
LOVE IT August 30, 2010 co2chantel I already had my own set of Twilight books, that I bought separately, as they came out. I love this series. My oldest daughter who will be 12 in Oct. read them as well and loved them so much, that she want's to read them over and over. So we bought the collection for her. She loves them. Now she has her own, that she can hold onto for as long as she wishes. I would highly recommend these books.
Acceptable Romantic Thrillers August 28, 2010 Charlie Chaplin (NE USA) Keep in mind that I don't normally read romance novels (not even when I was a teen) nor am I "into" vampires. Yet, when my teenage niece and her friends got into the Twilight craze, I decided to read the series. I wanted to know what the big hype was all about.
There were some logic issues and a few abrupt places in the first book that yanked me out of the story, but I kept reading....well, the masses cannot be totally wrong, eh? So, I persisted. The author did succeed in making me curious about what would happen to the characters, so I went on to the next book. The second book got me to caring about the characters. There weren't any blips to yank me back into reality. I was hooked by the time I got to the third book, which was better written than the second. Then, when I read the fourth book ("Breaking Dawn"), I was reluctant for the series to end. The author had made the characters very real to me. I wouldn't say this was a typical pulp romance (I despise those) nor really a garden variety vampire thriller. There's some depth here that I didn't expect. The series isn't just for teens. Indeed, they are mostly stories for the female species (hubby isn't into it). They are for thinking females, which I like.
Reading the reviews for the first three in the series as well as for the last book in the series, I find it intriguing that my opinion seems to be the reverse scale of many. Many loved the first 3 and had several complaints about the last. I almost didn't continue from the first book to the second, for I was a bit disappointed with the writing quality of the first book. But, I kept going. I'm glad I did. I think the last book was the very best of the series. As some of the reviews said, there's nothing wrong with a happy ending and tying up "loose ends" the way the author did. Is it too graphic for the teen audience? Well, you'd be hard pressed to find a teen nowadays that hasn't been exposed to much worse in horror flicks and other books. Even the Bible is pretty graphic when you use your imagination. Unlike some horror writings, I don't think this author gets unnecessarily graphic in detail. She writes just enough for the reader's imagination to be able to understand what happened. And, face it, childbirth in the real world is pretty violent to the body and graphically intense.
By the end of the series, I had better respect for the author's writing skills. In fact, enough so that I decided to go on and read "The Host," even though the "body snatcher" theme had me a little reluctant. "The Host" grabbed me even more than this series. If you liked the Twilight books, I think you'll love "The Host."
The Twilight Saga Collection August 28, 2010 Jonar511 For all you obsessed fans out there, this is a great collection. The books are kept in the storage box and makes for a great presentation. Any time you want to go back and read your favorite book it's easy and organzied all in one.
