I saw Twilight the movie first, enjoyed it so decided to read the book. I liked the book, but TBH it didn't grab me. Then I read New Moon and got bored half way through and ended up skipping to the end. I recently watched New Moon the movie and liked it more than the book. One of these days I will get around to reading Eclipse and Breaking Dawn, I have heard they are better than the first two books. I would like to see the movies too.
I just can't warm to Bella as a character, either in the books or in the movies. I think Kristen Stewart is perfect in the role, but all the brooding and pining over Edward just annoys me. Although I am definitely team Edward.
I ended up reading all four books in 8 days. I just couldn't put them down. I watched Twilight again and New Moon for the first time once I had finished those two books. I found the movies boring after reading the books. I don't think KS portrayed Bella well at all. I didn't get any chemistry or passion between her and Edward. I found that the movies left out too much too. I read Eclipse and BD next and loved them. I really could not put the books down.
