Michelle, I think timing does factor into it. I think I’m done after book 2. Everyone tells me that book 3 is the wallbanger, and I’m going to stop while I’m ahead. :-D

I completely understand your conflict with Twilight Kat. I was and still am confused about it. I read the whole series and knew that I loved it but couldn’t work out why when there was so much in it that annoyed me!! Not least of all the typos – worst proofreading ever. Little Brown books has since assured me they have had it reproofed for this latest print.
I found myself recommending it with a warning – you’ll find the characters really annoying but you’ll still like it.
When I wrote my review, I floundered around trying to work out what it was about the book that made me truly emotionally attached to it and I realised that I’d read it at a time that I needed some sweetness in my life and it delivered. It still doesn’t explain why it’s cast a spell over so many – almost as obsessive as Bella and Edwards relationship.
