Torque Control reviews Twilight

In preparation for my review (posting on 12/16), here's a review of Twilight by Liz (not sure of her last name) over at Torque Control.

The writing might be an attempt to write like a seventeen-year-old girl in love might write, but it is drowning in adverbs; everything is ‘utterly absurd’ or ‘gloriously intense’, Edward has a ’sculpted, incandescent chest’ and ’scintillating arms’, and he even has an alabaster brow, which I hope is a nod to Anne of Green Gables but I’m worried it’s meant to be sincere.

Heh.
