[stylist] Review on the Twilight series

[Bridgit Pollpeter]

Donna,

In my opinion, I say this is a series to skip, though millions have been
romanced and swept off their feet by the series, so maybe I'm the one
who has no sense, grin!

When I read a book, whether I like it or not, I like to look up
critiques and information along with looking up the author. A simple
Google search brings up tons of stuff, and especially when trying to
craft an intelligent, well-rounded review, I feel it is fair to do a bit
of research.

Sincerely,
Bridgit Kuenning-Pollpeter

Hi Bridgit,
First, you've done an excellent job on this review! I like the fact that
you not only read the books, but you read about the books as well, and
you looked at them from so many perspectives. Second, a special thanks
for saving me the trouble of reading them myself. I've long toyed with
the idea of finding out what the fuss was all about. As a JK Rowling
fan, though, I was plagued by the notion that this series was a bit of a
"coat-tails" series, inspired more by the popularity of fantasy that the
Potter books had generated than a stand-alone literary contribution.
Sounds like I might not have been too far off the mark. Cheers, Donna
