I saw it this morning. I haven't read the books but I plan on it. I thought it was okay. I do love a vampire story though. I bet I'll like the book better. I didn't feel like the characters were fleshed out enough. I didn't feel alot of empathy for any of them. No academy awards for sure but I did like it.
BTW, I helped my friend chaperone her girl scout troop! I was expecting the worst but everyone in the theatre was pretty polite. Lots of tween/teen giggles though. It was fun to see them so excited about something. Reminded me of when I was that age and the latest Teen Beat or 16 magazine came out
