That’s what I was thinking the whole time reading this. Just so you know, I’m 12, but I read this when I was 11. I read it to see what all the hype was about, as someone in my dance class is in love with it. The first thing I was wondering when I opened it was, “So do the vampires ACTUALLY sparkle?” And soon I found out. Yes, yes they do.
Let’s start off with the main character: Bella Swan. I didn’t really like her name, but I’m not going to complain about that, as that’s the least of our problems. I’m not sure what kind of character Meyer was going for, but she was just dumb, to put it in the nicest of words. She wasn’t interesting at all, and she seemed like one of those minor characters you would see in any other book, just there for a little filler. But the problem was, SHE WAS THE MAIN CHARACTER. This already made the book much more boring and stupid than it had to be.
Next up we have… Edward. Edward Cullen. Oooh, do I have a lot (yes, that’s the correct spelling, “a lot” NOT “alot”) to say about him. But I gotta cut it short, seeing as I only have 10 minutes. He had no personality at all, and I think I just summed it up right there. No personality. For your next-to-main character. All I have to say is smoooooooth, Meyer, smoooooooth.
I never understood the town’s name either, I mean, I know that towns have pretty weird names, but “Forks”? How about in my book I call the main town “Sporks” and the next one down “Knives”. Oh, and I love the name of the high school. For those of you lucky enough to have not read this, the high school is Forks High School. I know a lot are like that, my mom’s schools were Amesbury Elementary, Middle, and High, but come on. Meyer could have been a little more creative. I mean, she might as well have named it Meyer High School. Anyway, back to the story! Um… wait, that’s right, THERE IS NO STORY. There’s no plot that I could find, and the end… Well, I couldn’t even tell what was going on at the end.
