Last year 29.7 million copies were sold. So, if nothing else, the author =
is really popular. Details here: http://www.publishersweekly.com/article/C=
A6647224.html
But of course your question was about it being "interesting" and I really =
can't say, not having read any of the books.
And yes, just because a book is popular doesn't make it interesting or =
even good. However, I would think thatthe opposite would be true: just =
because a small select group likes something doesn't necessarily mean it's =
for you - you may not be right for that "small select group".
So, my recommendation is one word: library.

Is Twilight an interesting vampire series? I haven't
read any of the books.
