Question about Twilight...?

I'm 28 and absolutely loved them. I abhor chick lit, but am not sure that Twilight falls into that category. They're definitely a "guilty pleasure" as they were written for a pre-teen age group. However, there is something almost every person can relate to within the story. You find yourself very attached to the characters and the writing is not necessarily geared towards younger generations. It is a good series for any age group. She's an excellent writer and the story is extremely engrossing. If your friend believes that you will enjoy them (and this person knows you pretty well) I would trust that your friend would not steer you wrong.
