I tried so hard to like it. It was excruciatingly, mind-numbingly slow, boring and the plot incredibly predictable for me. The narration was juvenile and disjointed; like listening to the drunk ramblings of an airhead teen-aged girl.

I would never advocate burning of any book but for that book? I'd make an exception. |
I hate books that take me so long to read. I know it takes me awhile to read a book, mainly because I have many other things to do. But
Twilight took me months to read whereas
Harry Potter might have taken one month. Why did it take so long? I had no urge to read it. The book never grabbed me by the shirt and yelled 'READ ME' like
Harry Potter did. Maybe the next one is better. Oh who am I kidding, this is
Twilight, itll never get better.
