Meyer's novels first post-Potter phenomenon

This story from the Toronto, Canada, Globe and Mail proclaims the Mormon author Stephenie Meyer's vampire romance novels are the biggest thing in the literary world since the Harry Potter books. The article notes that "with much of the trilogy written out of her own experience — for instance, there's no 'cussing' because the people she grew up with never swore — Bella's reluctance to marry the preternaturally perfect vampire Edward lands with a loud thud in an otherwise largely graceful warp and weft of story and character that subtly weaves in her Mormon values."
