QUOTE(YukkaPukka @ Dec 2 2008, 04:58 AM)  reminds me of the Vitamin Water craze. it was ok at first...but then it was annoying. Off topic but... The thing that gets me about Vitamin Water is that it tastes the same as Gatorade/Powerade/Nutrient Water but costs a dollar more for the same size. Okay. Rant over. Back to topic. |

As long as people are reading who cares? Personally I don't think Twilight is that great. Not good enough to make me want to read the third and fourth book anyway.

I am a teenager and I read. Infact I love reading :) I think the thing that draws teenagers into twilight, is the love story... not that its the best book ever written. |

LOL She said it wasn't the best book ever written.
It isn't the best book ever. I believe that it would be almost impossible to say just one book is the best when there are so many out there. |

so, i use to think twilight was an annoying obsessed topic just like harry potter when it first came out. i hated it, not harry potter but of twilight. i think it's just that since the movie came out.. like a bunch of teenagers went PSYCHO! lolz, i saw it, and i'm that sucker who can't tell the difference between the movie and the book.. unless i was into it like harry potter, the notebook, etc. anyways; i read twilight i thought it was more intresting than the movie. and i was intrigued on how it was. not because of the love story.. but of how stephenie meyer wrote it. i'm not saying it's the BEST BOOK EVER. it's just like a crazy obsessed teenage book.. like about vampires and werevolves. science fiction, is intriging.. like harry potter all mystical and magic-y.
no difference, it'll calm down. lol just like harry potter. |

I don't know, would I like Twilight if I'm totally not into all that vampire and werewolf shit? Like I have never once watched Buffy because I didn't care for it. Because I refuse to believe that millions of teenagers are ALL into that vampire and werewolf shit.

i did watch buffy, but not because i was into vampires and shit. i gave it a shot because i was out of shit to read, being hobo and all. i'm not sure if you ever watched dramas gigi but that's pretty much explains why i got sucked into it. reading about this so-called perfect guy felt the same as watching one act on screen. yeah there might not be such a thing, but a girl can hope and dream? i held no expectations before i read it, but i did think the vampire aspect of it was silly. haha i guess i will have to share my edward cullen fantasy with all the other teeny boppers :x

^ Aw that's cute :)
Why yes I do watch dramas, but I always thought it was that I had a thing for Korean guys. But maybe not. I'm sure if I started reading Twilight I would become obsessed so I sort of don't wanna go there

I was super into Twilight and New Moon. Then, it just dropped when I read Eclipse.
Stephenie Meyer is actually a very bad writer. If you paid attention to the actual literature value, aside from the story line, she lacks the basics of a good writer. And from what I heard she churned out for Breaking Dawn, no matter how interesting the idea of werewolves and vampires are, she just pulled shit out of her ass. Which annoys me because there was so much potential for the story idea. |

 That's what she said. Group: Staff Alumni Posts: 3,559 Joined: Apr 2005 Member No: 130,200 |
I have to admit, I was a little biased at first because I refused to read Twilight because it had become the "it" thing and I was trying to stay true to HP. But eventually, I figured I'd give the series a chance and see what all the hubub was about. I'm not too fond of the way she writes, but I can't deny that she has a good storyline. I just makes me curious because I've always liked the supernatural/fantasy and I've never read about a romance between two people quite like this.
 If J.K Rowling and Stephenie Meyer fused, it'd be better.
