Okay, so we all know about Twilight by Stephenie Meyer. It’s all over websites, TV, and stores. I read this series before it got famous and was made into a movie. To be honest it was one of the first books I’ve read. I fell in love with book. But! After I read it again and my mom read it, I realized how the writing was still a little immature. (I'm used to the old writings) I've read a lot of other Vampire books and have found other great ones that don't get attention like Twilight is getting. The characters were great and there was a lot of description (Which I like) but I just couldn't stand Bella. Edward was okay, his mysterious personality was cute. Jacob I really liked. I loved his sense of humor and his attitude. He was one of my favorites. The rest of the characters were great too. One thing, I don’t really like is that 10, to 13 year olds are reading this series. The last two books I thought were very racy. Not what those kids should be reading. It was meant for older kids. Not that it is Meyer’s fault of course, she only wrote it for herself in the beginning. I just think they should have warned the readers about the sexual content in it. So anyhow, above all I give it 3 stars out of 5. It all depends on what you like. I will write more about the other books I will be reading, don’t worry. And if you have any suggestions about other books YOU like, just comment me. Thanks for reading!

Hey Janel! It looks like you're off to a great start here. :] I'll be reading here too. Book reviews are a great help to me many times.
ReplyDeleteI'd be interested to learn what you thought of Christian novelist Susan Meissner's books. Her "The Shape of Mercy" absolutely rocked my thought-world; I couldn't get over it! First of all, I couldn't put it down--read it straight through-- and second, even when I finished it, I still kept thinking above the implications in the book. Wondering, "was that really just fiction??"
I would love you hear your take on that book.
