Twilight - Stephenie Meyer Reviews

If you read the book first, you are garunteed to be disappointed when you get round to seeing the film, it will be nothing like you expected, or imagined things in your head, and this is exactly what I did with ...  Read the complete review

Twilight was introduced to me around the same time of the film release. However, I'd managed to read all four books in the series before even thinking about seeing the film (which I eventually did on DVD).

The writing is easy to ...  Read the complete review

Some years before that I had read and quite enjoyed a series of books whose titles I can't even remember which dealt with vampires in love with young girls. They're still in the loft somewhere because ...  Read the complete review
