I've only read the first book, and found it pretty eye-gouging. I think I focused more on Meyer's craft than the plot itself, though. Several things she does really, really bothers me - her tendency to infodump, describing a character's clothing down to their shoes and the way they wear their hair, and...pretty much a lot of things that I was told not to do in the writing classes and workshops I've taken. It's "show" not "tell"...eh, what do I know? She has the gobs of money and I've yet to be published. >.
