Stephanie Meyer abuses the thesaurus, adds in ‘big words’ haphazardly, and has a writing style that is both dull and unimaginative. Twilight is a pitiful imitation of real literature and is no better than a Harlequin romance. If your children need this to learn I wouldn’t get my hopes up about them having a bright future in college.

Although clear and direct, you feel as if you’re having a casual conversation with the author, a pretty funny author at that. And even if you are not on board with the twilight phenomenon, you’ll be infinitely entertained by its many pop culture references, ranging from an absurdly hilarious Dr. Evil monologue to the verbal spars of Jerry and Elaine over the questionably “enigmatic” character of Newman. Ultimately a very entertaining study guide, (so much so that I hesitate to even discredit it with the ominous label “study guide” and its burden of dreadful associations). I strongly recommend it to anyone who is falling asleep reading the run of the mill, dilbertesque vocab book, or becoming annoyed and discouraged from the poor attempts at humor of a prep book audaciously attempting to stand out and be cool or hip.

Um. I suppose if this is the only thing to get the inane Twilight kids to want to actually learn, I guess that’s fine. What I don’t understand is why the words are being redefined? A vegetarian vampire is *noble*? And not to echo the last critical comment but gratuitous is most certainly misused and makes absolutely no sense in the context they used it in. If we’re going to manipulate these kids in to learning words and their meanings…can WE at least get them right?

“Gratuitous” is used incorrectly in the book description! Twilight was written by a barely literate person, and should not be used for anything beyond the GED.
