I finally got around to reading this after only every single one of my friends told me it was the best thing they’ve ever read. When a whole lot of people speak so highly of a particular novel, that normally means it’s vastly overrated. So, I was a bit skeptical. I saw the movie version before I read the book, and I thought it was ridiculous. Still, my friend kept advising me to give the book a chance. I normally like to read whatever is popular at the moment so I can discuss it when it comes up in conversation, plus it happened to be on the shelf at the library when I went in (for the first time in a good year or two there was no waiting list), so I thought “why not”.

Let me start by saying, it’s actually not as god awful as I thought it would be. It wasn’t even that terrible. There are certain parts of the book that are even enjoyable.

This was most definitely written for a specific demographic. I can definitely see why young girls love this book, and if I was a 13 year old girl again, I would probably love it too. That being said, it is packed with high school drama, and the maturity level of the characters are extremely low. If you are out of high school, and no longer think like that, it’s likely that you’ll find a lot of the book really annoying. I found it a little amusing though. Maybe it’s because it’s been less than ten years since I was in high school, and I still remember when I was as stupid as the characters in Twilight, but I kind of enjoyed that aspect of it. This is a pretty accurate picture of the typical American t
