I just finished Book 4 in as many days. Is anyone here reading the Twilight series? No? Didn’t think so.
SPOILERS:
I hate happy endings. I like a little bittersweet at times, but sugary? Nope. Let’s just see here:

I guess I shouldn’t expect more from a “Young Adult Reader” series, but sheesh, no real horrible deaths in a book about vampires and werewolves shape-shifters? Come on! Where’s the fun? Don’t get me wrong, I would have been saddened at the loss of a major character, but for everyone to have a “happily ever after” just isn’t realistic–you know, like vampires and werewolves shape-shifters are. 😆
I’m not going to be a fangirl here, and I’m sort of relieved. I felt like I owed it to all my excited LJ friends to see what all the fuss is about, but I didn’t really want to get too involved with a new fandom just yet. I’m mighty glad I read this series, if for nothing more than the fact that I can now enjoy the HUGE amount of wank the final book has caused. Whoo!
