Twilight (book series)

While there's some interesting stuff, and the books certainly take me back to my 17-year-old shirtless, marble-chested days--they were written with me in mind, right--I really don't think that--forgetting the 150 pages of eye-rolling and awkward transitions--there are four books worth of good material here. Lots of bad writing to equal the good, and each final, dramatic confrontation feels tacked on for Hollywood and could have been trashed.

My wife tells me that "The Host" is much better written.
