    <body><![CDATA[When I first read Twilight, the first in the series, I loved it. I found myself re-reading it. The problem is--the more I re-read it, the more bored I get. This is the hallmark of a book that is not truly a good book, for me. If I can't re-read it as many times as I like and still love it? Then, eve...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/21614440">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This review gets five stars only because I have been drawn into the world Meyer has created.  Despite all my inner workings I actually like the story.  The writing isn't spectacular, but it's the story itself that folds you in and holds you.<br/><br/>I'll admit it, I've read the series more than o...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/19874645">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I liked this book series for one reason, the way that Stephanie Meyer used her own version of vampires which just happened to be awesome. My first problem with this series is the rather retarded love story, this debauchery of literature is hard to slog past while reading this but i succeeded.

I am irrefutably in love with her characters.<br/><br/>Although the books are undoubtedly fantasy, Meyer makes the reader feel as if he/she is there amidst the ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/20423519">more...</a>]]></body>
