A WINTERS TWILIGHT- REVISITED
It wasn't just that she didn't do a good job of explaining the idea it's also that it was a bad idea. I read a good analysis of them once that explained and here I am going to make an assumption that you are female, and if you are not I apologize that Bella is written so simply and non-descriptive for most of the books that any girl reading it can fit into the role.

Basically, it is a wish-fulfillment thing. I suppose it doesn't help that I'm male. As someone who visualizes a lot I always like have a clear description, and so without the ability to self-insert, that certainly makes it harder to get into the story. I read first one when I was 13 or Definitely wish fulfillment for me, I dreamed of two hot guys loving me and love story that wins all difficulties. Bella was so ordinary and dull that I could imagine that happening to me. I was into fanfiction too, remembering badly written overly erotic stories I liked makes me cringe a little but yeah, I was teenager: Twilight is really not only bad writing but also little toxic book so I hope today's teenagers have better wish fulfillment stories.

It's odd that I found controlling borderline abusive relationship romantic, and views about premarital sex and abort in case where woman is in danger to die are not that admirable either. I used to love them and honestly I have to give them credit for getting me into writing. I used to write so much fan fiction on that series, and now looking back on those books I can't even read them anymore. They were a gateway for me to get into different books and out of the YA genre. When I first read them, I liked them, but honestly thought a teenager wrote them.
I actually was surprised, by how well written her adult books turned out. I read them as an adult male simply because I wanted to see what the hype was about. Needless to say I didn't get it. I found Meyer to be one of the worst best selling authors I ever had the misfortune to read.

She takes no risk with her characters, the plot points were well beyond predictable except the wolf with the baby thing and her lack of experience was extremely obvious. I picked up the Host when it came out because I like science fiction and I figured what the hell I got about half way through and gave it to my mother and told her I wanted to guess the end when she was done.
Quick Rules:
I guess I can see why teenagers would like her writing but it makes me feel better seeing people revisiting Twilight and seeing it for what it really is - trite nonsense. I always kind of hated that I enjoyed these books enough to read all of them. I hadn't run in to too many vampire or werewolf books at that point in time so I think that was the main reason I read them. I wouldn't enjoy them if I read them again now.
I was pretty brutal about my criticism of the Twilight books even back then and the movies just solidified that they weren't that great. Twilight was huge in my school, everybody was freaking out about them so naturally being a bookworm I decided to give them a try. I read all of the books and think that the second book and the last one to be the worst of the series. Bella being reckless to see mirages of the vampire dude and that imaginary battle in the last book were very bad imo. I just consider them a teenage-ish sort of phase of my book life.
Never even thought of rereading them again. Very often, romance characters are written as empty shells so the reader can better imagine themselves in that role. Romance is a genre I used to strongly dislike, but I wanted to read more of it vs just writing it off complete, so over the past several years I've made an effort to read more books both top rated and random Amazon ones in the genre. I see so many conventions that the Twilight and 50 Shades series follow that now I think I can appreciate them even more for what they are.
Additionally, as a young adult series, Twilight suffers from the same thing all YA novels do--plot that is laid out but not fully explored. I've always been a fan of romance, but I greatly dislike the "Keanu Reeves Effect" that is used in such novels - wherein reactions and descriptions are kept minimal and simple to allow for projection of self into the roll. Twilight is just extra bland in my opinion, to the point I didn't even think it might be intentional. Bella really does jump the line between character and caricature. She felt like she had no outside interests or thoughts that didn't pertain to the story or had any real reason to exist beyond moving the plot forward.
It's a first person novel, and yet I never felt that I really got to know her character; it's there, it peaks out, especially in the first book, but it's never developed.
Welcome to Fyrefly’s Book Blog!
I never got into them myself nor the movies. I always seen them as twaddle or something easy to read for those who didn't identify themselves as readers. I dont even know if its allowed to post about Twilight in the subreddit. I dont even consider them books due to the terrible writing I also think they are badly written books, but really, it would be odd if there were rules to dictate which books are good enough to discuss.
