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.

ETA: "Edward in the sunlight was shocking. I couldn’t get used to it, though I’d been staring at him all afternoon. His skin, white despite the faint flush from yesterday’s hunting trip, literally sparkled, like thousands of tiny diamonds were embedded in the surface."
Also, at one point Edward asks Bella, "Do I dazzle you?"
For realsies. *shakes head*

"Who's your shiny new boyf .. no literally, he's shiny?"
