See, IMHO,
'Harry Potter' was very boring to begin with. He had a few misadventures with his family, they were okay but come on, who cares really? However once he got to Hogwarts things started picking up. Problem with
'Twilight' is that it never picks up. I keep reading it hoping something will happen, hoping Edward and Jacob will fight, just something interesting, and nothing happens. Edward and Jacob meet, they have a talk, almost fight, it fizzles out and they go back home. I will say one thing though. Because theres never anything going on its easy to read. I pick it up, read a few chapters, put it down for a few weeks, pick it up again and immediately remember where I left off. I think thats more of a back-sided compliment but it is a compliment.
