For any adults who read the series as a teen and are considering a reread: fun for the nostalgia and deconstructing (if you're into that), but you'll probably have more fun getting somebody whose never watched the movies to watch them with you.
For teens who are thinking about reading the series: there's better stuff out there that doesn't have the issues this series has.
For adults who read the series as an adult and are still into it.... You do you I guess.

Hard to say how to classify the whole "imprinting" issues that spring up in this book. Not teeeechnically pedophilia, but it's the textbook definition of grooming, so, we're doing the best we can with the tags we've got.stindex's review

This is somehow the best, and the worst book of all of them-- by not by a lot.
Spoilers Ahead
It's obviously S. Meyer's weird anti-abortion manifesto, Bella makes it painfully clear when she, 18 and pregnant, will not give up the baby that is literally a parasite growing rapidly and actively killing her while she drinks blood out of a 7-11 cup as prescribed by a board-certified(?) doctor.
This triggered constant eye-rolling every time she was described as weak but in the same breath, readers were made aware of how badly she wanted to keep Jakeward or whatever the male baby name idea was. Speaking of Jacob, his entire 'book' portion was so whiny and annoying and absolutely a displeasure to read.
The only mildly entertaining part of this book was the shady lawyer or whatever who was absolutely terrified of Mr. Jasper (can you blame him)? The Volturi scene was so long and drawn out for literally no reason.
Midnight Sun is still on my radar, but not for a very, very long time.
