I'm not a fan of Twilight, but I can answer the question anyway, if that's okay.
It was just before Christmas 2009, I think, and I was searching the web for Paramore stuff. (I don't really listen to Paramore anymore.) I found the song that is on the Twilight soundtrack, and because Hayley Williams spoke warmly of the series in an interview, I decided I should check it out.
Time passed, and everyone but me had read the books and seen the first movie. I later saw the film on an iPod belonging to one of my friends. I didn't think much of it at the time, as the quality was bad, the sound low, and I wasn't really paying attention. Another friend of mine recommended the book. (Though I don't think she really liked it. She was just hopelessly in love at the time, and was seeing everything through her pink-and-glittery,-the-world-is-so-wonderful-glasses. She is now more than willing to discuss plot holes with me.)
Halfway into the summer holidays, and I still hadn't made any effort to get hold of the books. Luckily (or unluckily, depending on how you look at it), I was stuck on a cabin and my sister's friend happened to have her Twilight book with her. I read it in one go, staying up til 6 in the morning. I loved it for the first few hours afterwards (I read the Norwegian transelation, so the flowery prose wasn't as bad), but then I thought more about the book and came to the conclusion that I didn't acutally like it at all. I've read the rest of the books and seen the movies for the lulz, and because I'm not going to be one of those who hate something without knowing anything about it.
Oh, God. This answer is a bit longer than I was planning on. Just ignore it. I'm in school, and I'm slightly bored...
