Classic. Just as cheesy as I remember and still somehow so fun to read.

[Gabby · Rating 4 out of 5]

I think this was my third or fourth time reading this novel? Is it cringe? Yes. Is it the greatest book ever? Absolutely not. But it has so much nostalgia and memories packed into it for me, I just love this story. I also love Emmett in the books.
In the few scenes he and Bella have together, their relationship feels much more fun and organic than her and Edward’s. Honestly, same with Jacob. She has a much more natural relationship with everyone else when compared to Edward 🤣

Also, I keep forgetting how terrible the books are when it comes to the action scenes, they skip over them almost completely!🤣 we see James throw Bella against the mirror and break her leg but unlike in the movie, she faints and wakes up to Edward and the others already in the process of fixing her and disposing of James. It’s not a lot of things lost but the movies definitely do the action better.

I forget how much different the movie is from the book. And I havent read Twilight since 2011. It was a great re-read, and very enjoyable.
