Let's be clear. Twilight, and the ongoing saga it spawned, is aimed squarely at people who are not me. I understand that. But that doesn't excuse it from the standards by which all works of literature should be judged, especially if those works constantly intrude on my life in the media blitz that this book has unleashed. I've managed to avoid all but the most superficial knowledge of what Twilight contains and will attempt to objectively read the series and report my findings here.
Maybe it's better than I expect it will be. Maybe it'll be awful enough to amuse you. At this point we can only hope.
Some shorthand to keep track of:
SM = Stephanie Meyer, the author
T.01 = Twilight Series, Book 1 (Twilight). That's right, I'm doing the whole series... potentially.
I'll bold the first time a character appears in discussing a chapter and tag it.
No, I didn't buy the books. I have a library card and a will to live.
