"Not so great"
1 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Your bog standard parody- a caricatured shadow of the Twilight book, and only really understood if you have read the actual book, but rather boorish if you also liked the actual book. I would only recommend it for those who have at least read the first Twilight and once finished thought it was a joke, who are open to the weird sense of humor parodies all seem to share, and are pretty bored with nothing else to read. Mostly average, but since it was lacking even the smallish amount of action and suspense provided in the Meyer books, my copy has pretty much been abandoned in a dark, damp corner to rot away…

"Good for a few laughs"
3 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Not a bad book-but only really worth reading if you have read the twilight books. Had me laughing throughout the book, but a lot of the jokes are dry, and would go over the head of someone who is unfamiliar with Meyer's work.

"Yet another Parody..."
3 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

As one with a dislike for “Twilight” (Movies in particular, empty characters & lack of anything a true “Vampire” text should posess.) A parody was right up my alley, I read it… an like many parody's seem to be now-a-days. It was childish, dry an possessed any true wit. Still as it is loosely based on “Twilight” an pokes a bit of fun at it, even if executed weakly. It still had a few cheap laughs.

Description

Belle Goose falls in love with the mysterious and sparkly Edwart Mullen in the Harvard Lampoon's hilarious send-up of Twilight. Pale and klutzy, Belle arrives in Switchblade, Oregon looking for adventure, or at least an undead classmate. She soon discovers Edwart, a super-hot computer nerd with zero interest in girls. After witnessing a number of strange events - Edwart leaves his chips untouched at lunch!; Edwart saves her from a flying snowball! - Belle has a dramatic revelation: Edwart is a vampire. But how can she convince Edwart to bite her and transform her into his eternal bride, especially when he seems to find girls so repulsive- Complete with romance, danger, insufficient parental guardianship, creepy stalker-like behaviour, and a vampire prom, Nightlight is the uproarious tale of a vampire-obsessed girl, looking for love in all the wrong places.
