[LIT] Twilight

[TLP]

I am reading "Eclipse" by Stephanie Myers as I had a student who wanted me
to read the series. I've read "Twilight" and "New Moon."
I have found it interesting but too romance novelish for my liking. Plus, I
had been reluctant to read "Vampire" lit! However, it has some redeeming
qualities. Yet, I am a bit concerned about the message sent to girls and
young women about relationships and love. The breakdowns and drama is over
the top and I am uncomfortable with the notion that ultimate sacrifice is
romanticized. Has anyone else read these books?
