I thought this was a really good, faithful adaption of the book. As I Twilight reader, I am not sure how entertaining the film would be for someone who hadn't read the books. I thought the casting was really good, and all the actors did a great job portraying these characters. The flow of the story was a little choppy at times, and sometimes the dialogue understandably verged into cheesy. Overall, it was a decent adaption of the novel, which did not ruin the book like most book-to-movie adaptions do, but neither did it add anything to the story. It was a pretty good movie with some great emotionally relatable moments.
