From a writing point, I actually find it more interesting to read writing which is less good. The problem with brilliant writing is that the style and techniques are near-invisible. I can't see the brush strokes, so I don't learn anything about the technique.
I learned a _lot_ about writing from reading Twilight, because it's at a level where I can say to myself, "That doesn't work. Why not? How could it have been done better?"
