Honestly I should read that series so I can be tortured like all of you were tortured
It's been so long but I don't think they were terribly written. I mean the characters are trash and Bella is a dumb bitch, but I wasn't frustrated enough to actually stop reading. I've only put down one book for good so maybe I'm not the best measure to judge by, though.
Read it in my early 20s, as a guy. So, not the target audience.
It wasn't bad. To be honest, the secondary characters were so much more interesting. Edwards family in particular were often deeply written, compelling, and downright fucking cool sometimes. Edward is super brooding, Bella is a cardboard cut out designed to filled with the reader, and Jacob was honestly pretty compelling, but a little overly emotional. All in all, decent books. Like 7/10
I liked the individualized superpower aspect, I just wish there was more world building. I have definitely read worse books.
