I'm late to the party, too... I've read all 3 of the books this past week [yes, I should have been doing...well... LOTS of other things, but I digress].
While I got sucked in, I have to say that the storyline as I've read each book has been utterly predictable. I can't decide if that is a good or bad thing.
Still, despite the utter predictability of the first 3 books, I'm not totally sure where the author will go with book 4. So yes, August 2... I'll be reading!
BTW: There's a piece of me that would like to do a feminist/academic analysis of the books. I know it is fiction, but there are some things that have really not sit well with me [i.e, what she would have to give up to be with Edward vs. Jacob], particularly given that the audience is intended to be teen/young adult. Admittedly, I'm not in that demographic, but I make a point of being somewhat in tune with the pop culture of that demographic because I want to be able to talk with my kids about what they are reading, seeing, etc.
But that's just a piece of me. The rest of me has enjoyed the brain candy!
