Twilight Series
Chesire Cat:
Because ultimately only fucking assholes legitimately hate on what other people do in there spare time. Naturally provide it isnt shaking babies or kicking dogs.
Its ok to gently chide people but to really hate on them and genuinely insult them is beyond prickish. Seriously when I was 17 I used to care what other people did and be an asshole about it, then I grew up and realized theres 'different strokes for different folks' and not everyone is going to live up to the ideal I expect of them (let alone myself).
SayWhat:
I found the Twilight books to be vapid crap. Granted, it's wonderful that more kids are reading, and I know a few who started reading different books after Twilight showed them that maybe it was fun to read sometimes, but I still had to push myself to read the books (most of my immediate friends are into the series, so I read it too). I really found the depiction of Edward's and Bella's romance as wonderful/inspiring/true love disturbing, it seems far to co-dependent and obsessive to be anywhere near healthy. What really bothers me is a 15 year old girl I know thinks that's how all relationships should work, and got upset because her boyfriend didn't get obscenely jealous when another guy hugged her. Christ on toast, people, having someone sneak into your bedroom and watch you sleep is not romantic, it's fucking creepy.
I honestly liked Meyer's The Host a lot better. I thought it was more original and the writing was of better quality than Twilight, though I still wouldn't classify it as an 'adult novel'.
peach:
Agreed. The Host much better than the Twilight series.
Also, why Chuck Norris get changed to Anal Prolapse in my last post? I don't understand.
Dimmukane:
It's a word filter. Can't remember what for.
