I have to agree. Meyer hit a homerun with the best mix of bad boy/prince charming I've ever seen and I also liked her new take on vampires but I'm not sure there is that much to discuss about literary technique.

The main discussion will be held in sLiterary, Second Life in February - but we're trying to figure out the best time to hold these discussions.
So far, the plan goes like this:
28 days in Feb, 24 chapters in Book 1
A chapter a day for 24 days on Mon thru Sat (tentatively 7 pm PST?).
Sunday's are open discussion, or a recap of the past 6 chapters of the week (tentatively 3 pm PST?)
Possible topics include literary techniques used in Twilight and Twilight in the literary context - but we plan to keep this open and informal. (And, eventually the rest of the series.)
