Camping for a week in the rain with a tent full of fighting children gives one an inclination to not only seriously punish one's kidneys on a daily basis, but also to voraciously read anything that might come to hand from fellow campmates.

And so i did.

The following are my reviews of the first two books in 'author' Stephanie Meyer's 4-part 'Twilight' series.

Book #1 - Twilight.

Mills and Boonish teen romance with Vampires in it.
Overly verbose and mushy with really painfully obvious plot devices that stick out like a randy dogs balls.
Pretty much written for desperate 13 year old girls who feel their lives are incredibly tragic because their' parents won't let them get a naval piercing.

If you got excited by this book, and it's terrifically over-rated contents, you are, in my occasionally humble opinion, an IDIOT.

If you went one step further, and got caught up in the hype and now dress as a goth/vampire while hyperventilating waiting for some impossibly handsome and dangerous creature of the night to come tapping at your window, you are....well, you know what you are, you just won't admit it.

Losers.

I wish i could erase all memory of this shite from my hard drive, but the technology is not yet available.

Try a REAL vampire book, like 'Salem's Lot' by Stephen King, and see how it should be done.

negative 4 stars.


Book #2 'New Moon'

See review of book #1, add werewolves.
