Admittedly, I'm loving it. I decided to read the series because my daughter did and it helps to connect us more. Plus, I can help discuss certain aspects of the story with her. The series does get a bit romantically intense, but it's NOTHING compared to what's on tv; (and some of the stuff I "snuck" and read without parents' permission when I was twelve.) lol
I discovered that I'm not the only 50something woman loving these books. sigh
