Twilight for me was something I became vaguely interested in once I heard about the movie. I heard that it was a massive bestseller and so started hunting around for reviews.

From the reviews I worked out that I probably didn't want to read the series. And then I saw the preview of the movie and I was utterly convinced that I didn't want to read the series.

So until now I have not read any of the books or watched any of the movies and I absolutely love vampires and werewolves.

What makes things worse is that now I'm seeing shelves and shelves of these books littering bookstores and I know it will be difficult finding a vampire or werewolf book that I'll take a chance on for the foreseeable future.

That all sounds very damning, but it's not. My sister read Twilight and she's a more sophisticated reader than I am. She was able to appreciate it enough to get enjoyment out of it. I just simply have a visceral reaction to it that I currently trust more its bestseller classification.

Regards
Caleb
