I refuse to be biased about a book I've never read. I've learned too many times you can't judge a book by it's cover or by what everyone else says about it, not always anyways. I haven't read Twilight, but I've heard both good and bad comments on it. Please know that if you do respond to this with statements supporting or against the book that they will merely get thrown in with the rest of the opinions and likely noticed very little. It's not that I don't care, just that I prefer to form my own opinion.
I do agree that those invading "souls" are somewhat reminiscent of Yeerks. It might not be an intentional similarity, and I'm sure similar ideas have been used before. Besides that, from what I've found looking around Animorphs didn't exactly seem to have one of the largest fan followings. The idea could have been influenced by any number of sources.
