I've only read the first book. It is very craftily written. By that, I mean that it is clearly and intentionally written to appeal to a particular demographic, and all concerns of plotting, character motivation or other story elements are a lesser priority. But it is very well crafted for that audience - reading it I was delighted at the clear choices that she made to appeal to them.
OMG Twilight is the BEST!!! My favorite book is by far Eclipse. They need to add a new word to the dictionary, like TWIHARDS or TWILIGHTERS def. Approx 2million teens who act crazy at the mention of Twilight. Or something like that. But I'm seriously thinking of submitting it to a dictionary somewhere. I mean, we use Twilight ALMOST as much as the words 'and' or 'the'!!!!

This article voiced my each and every thought on the series. Whether you be Twilight hater or lover...if you have a good sense of humor, you should be able to enjoy this. Heck, it may even open your eyes to a few things. ;-)
Everyone has their own opinion, in my opinion I LOVE IT!! Team Jacward! :D Although, know offence I dislike Bella. Only because she kinda used JAcob until Edward came back :( But I love Edward too! :D
I think teenagers are lost if they keep reading this stuff
I'm one but really I read a lot so to me Stephanie Meyer is one of the worst writers on earth.
I hate that my classmates are always speaking over twilight and when you ask the why did they like it They all answer "Because of Edward"
I'm tired of hearing this is a good book because it isn't is a good story. The love story between Bella and Edward is cute but comm'n saying all the time "he's perfect and I'm not good for him but he's still perfect Oh my I love him soooo much and I don't love myself but I love him".
Like teenagers that like this is because a)they don't read at ALL or b) They are DESPERATE to find through love.
I'm not against the fans but if you ask for my opinion you have it. And I'm sorry if I offended anyone but I'm tired that literature is taken as a twilight itself and trust me when you have to hear people talk about it 24/7 it can get pretty nasty
Also why does the guy has to be perfect???? This just proves that people is really superficial. Love shouldn´t be based on beauty or perfection or overprotection It should be based in feelings but maybe I'm wrong. Maybe Stephanie Meyer should win a Nobel prize in Literature. Really if you want to read good books read Book thief or Notre Dame de Paris or The perfume.
Twilight is a nice stry but it's overated and it really hurts to see that people is so blinded by it.
Huddysmacked. Seriously. You don't need to lie that you don't like Twilight. GET OVER YOURSELF. I'm a teenager who read Twilight, the whole series and loved it. I read ALOT and I am not desprate to find love. I'm not blinded by it, I just think it rocks. And YOUR overated. I think you are trying to offend Twilight fans just to stand out and be different. Here's a little secret:
Oh! I'm sorry I don't need to like it and I'm not trying to outstand I just said what I thought and really I don't like it. So I'm sorry if I offended you but really that was NEVER my intention. And I don't want to argue anymore because I'm really not an arguer. You asked my opinion and I gave one, that you like it or not is not my trouble. Reallyt peace and chill not all the world has to like Twilight, trust me I respect the fans 'cause I have two bff that love the books as much as you do but I just don't. My bad although I watched the movie and thought Carlisle was HOT. But that's pretty much what I like about Twilight. So sorry again. Peace&Love between Twilighters and me.
And twilightbandlol.I know I love sooo much House.
lol seriously, i agree with you in THAT way; I dont want to argue. So maybe we could stop arguing, and be Fanpop friends and talk about "House." Cuz House is so totally awesome!!!!!!!! I ♥ House! Love your pix!!!!!!
LOL OMG Dearheart !!!!!!!! that was the most hilarious thing i have ever ever EVER READ !!!!! LOOOOL "sparkling toenails .... "LOL .. anyways .. yea i love twilight, but that thing was HILARIOUS @@@#$###$%$$^#$#$ .. oh .. if u dont have a sense of humour and are a hardcore fan-girl .. dont read it ...
but yea getting to the point .. i think that twilight was just a really good book which a lot of people (not everyone) was able to love .. and yea thats my oppinion ...
yeah i agree with you pixie. I read that thing and i was mad at it cuz i LOVE twilight but couldnt stop laughing. sooooooo yeah itz funny but it insults the book so im mad too. :) ): Lol, welllllllll yeah twilight rocks. Sorry but you ppl hav 2 deal with that Fact. ;)
To be honest, Twilight scares me for a variety of reasons.
Reason #1 - Quite frankly, Stephanie Meyer's gushy prose and gawdawful sentence structure in general is...well, painful. It's an embarrassment to all writers out there...and yet people are saying she's "the best writr EVA" and worshiping the ground she walks on because of Twilight. I don't get it. At all.
Reason #2 - So many teenage girl are getting sucked into these books...but what are they learning from them? How will Twilight affect the way they see True Love or real-life relationships? They all go ga-ga over Edward, who is supposedly every girl's dream...yet they fail to realize just how unrealistic and un-perfect he is. He's overly obsessive, overly protective, border-line abusive, more emotionally unstable than a pregnant woman...he practically stalks Bella...I mean REALLY! Common sense, anyone? Is Twilight killing brain cells or something? I'd choose a nice Average Joe over a creepy, sparkly, stalker vampire any day.
Reason #3 - The fans are taking the meaning of the word "zealous" to a whole new level. Is Twilight a fandom or a cult?? Seriously! You never hear of people being attacked for not liking Harry Potter or LotR, for crying out loud...and yet there are Twi-hards out there who've committed felonies against people who don't like Twilight.
I'm not saying every single fan is like that, and I'm not saying that Twilight is evil and no one should be allowed to love it or anything, but still...it tells me something.
Oy, I don't like it. Not one bit.
EDIT: Arrgh, the link won't go where I want it to go...okay, well if it doesn't take you to the topic, just scroll down and click on the thread that says The Twihard Attack Directory.
LOL.. this is funny in a twisted disturbing kind of way !! .. i love twilight, i just love the story, idk call me a gushy teen girl if you want, its probably true .. but i definatly see your point, i wouldnt want an edward, for one coz its my bros name and that is just wierd.. but i dont think i could handle anyone that possesive .. so yea .. i just think that people that hate people that hate twilight is stupid. i hate capsicum, dont hate on me homies D: Lol .. but i see what you mean :p
Nah, I wouldn't call you a gushy teen girl, lol. You like Twilight, and that's okay. People can love or hate whatever they want. And while there are a lot of overly obsessed Twi-hards out there, the same could be said of overly obsessed Twi-haters. In my book, you should never say you hate something unless you have good reasons behind it.
Wow Dearheart and HuddySmacked you guys completely know my thoughts on twilight!
Hey ma home girl pixie you're a twilighter and I still love you for that especially coz you like Linkin Park too!
Hey, you don't like capsicum? *points a gun at your head* Run girl, you better RUN!!
Hey Ovybo I love your shoe but you can appear a little Ro0de. Or a lotta Ro0de. We twi-dislikers are as worthy as twi-dislikers. I kinda like twilight coz i have a very tiny weak spot for addictive trash but the rest of me overcomes that spot. SO YAY
When we begin to confuse genuine literature with marketing stunts for "target demographics", the young and uneducated exchange critical thinking and subtlety for flash fads and vulgar thrills. For the good of our society I hope that I'm wrong... but I don't think I'm JudgeING without grounds.
twilights good, but i dont get the obsession and all the insane teenage girls. its almost annoying now, with all these new fans and the sudden popularity jump
loved them all.
im an obcessive fangirl (Y)
lmao
