I thought I will share my opinion even though I only read the first
one so far, since the first time I saw those books mentioned was here
some time ago and recently somebody seconded recommendation
(Lizzyben, I believe).
Since I had never been dissapointed with recommendations from you
guys and I also saw these books seem to be pretty popular and
Stephanie Meyer was even said to be next JKR, I figured I will check
them out.
Okay, so first thing first, in my opinion she is definitely a very
good writer. I could not put the book down, I finished it in two
days, the story kept my interest.
If one likes romance, I definitely recommend this book. Having said
that, if anybody asked me whether she is next JKR, I would laugh for
a long time.
Actually scratch that, if the question would have been phrased that
way, my answer would be I do not know.
I certainly believe that her writing skills are good enough to
produce extremely popular book and again as I heard those books are
popular, but how to put it?
I have no idea if she can produce a story which actually, well, has a
plot that includes anything besides romance.
I can see why girl falling in love with a bad boy who tries to be
good can be extremely popular among teenage girls and as I said,
story held my interest well.
BUT for me for story to held my interest enough to reread the book,
book certainly has to contain something else besides romance and
well, so far I do not see what else is there.
I believe three books are out and fourth is coming this fall? Maybe
it developes in something more than romance, then it will interest me
significantly, but if it is not?
All that is left of interest to me is whether they will stay together
or not and whether they will die or not.
There is nothing to keep my curiosity piqued left. Soooo, I guess I
am not hundred percent sure, but so far I doubt that I am picking up
sequel.
I am keeping the first book though.
Oh oh and I cannot tell you how much I was irritated by the girl at
the end of the book. I wanted to slap the stupid twit soooo badly.
Yeah, okay you want to stay with him, but do you really want to
become what he is? OY.
Only my opinion,
Alla
