I am a mother of 4 and am 33 years old and I am hooked on the Twilight series! I have read all 4 books and was very excited for the movie. I loved the movie and felt that it followed the book pretty closely. However, I must caution those of you who have not read the book that you might find the movie corny. There were people laughing and giggling at parts of the movie that if they had read the book they would have realized the emotions felt by Bella and Edward and had a true sense of the meaning of the scene. This is a great movie, but to get the most out of the movie, I suggest you read the book! It is worth the time to read the series!
