Better than I thought it was going to be

Rating: 8/10 (17 July 2009)

I watched the movie first. The movie made me want to read the books and the books made me want to put them down. The story is great, don't get my wrong, but Stephenie Meyer is a HORRIBLE author. If you're not a 13-16 year old girl, or you're not a big reader, I could see how the books would be as great as people say. But, I'm an avid reader and have been spoiled by the greats and expect nothing less if its been published. If you're into a good read, then skip the books and just wait for the movies. I give it an 8 out of 10 just because the poor director and producer had to decipher all her terrible writing to make this into a decent movie. Good job~
