Twilight Series ...

I know this came up several months ago but what are ya'll's opinions ("ya'll" is a word, let's get that out of the way) on the 'Twilight' series, by Stephanie Meyer?  I read the first book yesterday (yes, in 4 hours) and I'm not sure I want to commit to this series.  It was good, and obviously a pretty easy read, but seriously, do I want to get emotionally involved here or not?  I can't seem to make up my mind if I want to make the emotional investment.  Or will there be and emotional investment?  Anyway, I know you gals won't steer me wrong.

My 21 year old hated it. My 19 year old said, "I'd have loved this when I was 14!"

My 14 year old LOVED it.

(all girls, naturally - my boy refuses to even open the book).

So I guess it depends on your feelings about abstinence, true lurve forever, and sparkly vampires.

My thoughts? (I read a lot of YA). Meh.

I think I would have loved it a lot more 15-20 yrs ago myself. I just can't quite buy in. I have a very "meh" feeling about it too.
