Mehso-so

Time for my NA adaptation no. 1! I think the premise- a Twilight-obsessed teen begins to suspect that the supernatural might be real- is a really clever way to set up this hard-to-adapt story, but the execution isn't there in the cringe-y dialogue, questionable plot elements, and only a fleeting moment of Austen-esque wit and snark. However, being YA, I can see members of its target audience enjoying it, so I won't outright pan. #PemberLittens
