I was excited to relieve my high school days while reading this and I expected it to be bad/cheesy but I wasn't expecting quite HOW bad??
95% of this book is Edward's thoughts. Just him thinking about how much he should leave Forks and how much he's in love with Bella before even talking to her. I'm not exaggerating. SO MUCH THINKING. The only action was near the end with James and even that couldn't revive this book. I honestly skimmed so much because it was so repetitive and boring.
The only part I liked was getting to see the Cullens in a different light. I've always been interested in the family more than the rest of the book. I wish we had gotten even more of them but of course Edward was only focused on Bella.
I knew I'd be disappointed with this book but I at least expected a fun read which was not the case.
