A three year old writing a book. >.>

i loved the books. i wasn't going to read them because everybody was reading but then my friend got me to read them. it took me about four days to read all four of the books because i just could not put them. i thought the movie was good but they should have stayed closer to the book because some of the parts that they changed were important for what happens in new moon. i cant wait to see new moon and see how it turns out because it is a different directer.

Twilight - I hate the book
It has come to my attention that Twilight is like plague. I hate the book. Yet I've watched the movie and read some of the book. It's way to dramatic. But is it the soppy love story the reason why so many enjoy the book? |
it plays into the fantasies of the girly girls... honestly I see the book as nothing but abusive relationships, but many see it as the "perfect fantasy".
That and all four books are poorly written. Conflicts are in the wrong order (meaning the most dangerous tend to be before the final one, which makes everything anti climatic) and those climax's Meyer does end up putting in the right places end up being so poorly thought out the book ends in a "...seriously? that's it? No war? really?" that was me on the last book. All that lead up to a HUGE chat fest. BORING (I don't know why I read all of the books, I hated each one, but I read them all anyway... more or less I think I was looking to see why there was so much hype on them). Not to mention Bella plays against her own character all the time. "Oh I'm so ugly, I have so many flaws" and yet every male character wants her and she can do anything and everything she wanted to without so much of an issue. My view, in a nut shell, for this series falls right down to this picture: |
fullmoonlightblood, I've merged your thread with our original Twilight topic.
Always remember to search the forum before making a new thread. :yes: |
Erailea - I agree with you. These books are poorly written. The only way I could get through the first book (I haven't bothered reading further) was by counting grammatical errors and things that made me cringe. My friend and I had a list- we made it a drinking game. The thing that bother me is that these books managed to get past their editor riddled with bad English and glaring errors.
If I had any self respect, I wouldn't have finished the first one. I'm not really sure why I did- I think ti was because everyone was raving about them. I feel like these are stories I would have written when I was in Junior High. Everything idealized with a layer of badly written angst. |
Twilight is not one of my favorite series. However I really did like New Moon. It captivated me and kept me guessing. It made me think 'If this is how Edward is going to be whats going to change to keep the main couple. Or will that be changed?'
I also some what enjoyed the first book. However after reading the first few chapters of Midnight sun most of me wishes she had just writen it like that to begin with. |
I think New moon and Eclipse were my favorite, just because Jacob is my favorite character and you get to learn to much more about him in those two books. Not to mention they helped me learn not to hate Rosalie.

no idea but i hope to read all her books...i have most of them anyway
|
you know what really freaks me out about this lady. SHe can't write to save her life, she's a horrible story teller and yet she's so popular. It's almost revolting. So many amazing authors go unnoticed, one's who know how to tell a story, know how to write properly and stick to the rules of their world (Meyer breaks her own rules all the bloody time, it pisses me of. The Twilight series is so unstable).
Now she's making a time traveling mermaid/siren combo book. WTF! This woman needs to stop writing. Seriously. And every interview thing I have seen about her makes her look like snobby little prat who can't take any kind of negative criticism that would actually make her work better. |
I used to be a fan of Twilight before I saw and read House of Night.

HIYA
Hello, I like Twilight but Breaking Dawn which is the fourth book of the series was my biggest favorite and no I'm not a fangirl. I just liked how the book went along, I would say more but I don't like giving out spoilers. Whoops time for me to go to sleep its 10:49pm here lol. I love to sleep its my hobby...and my friends, school etc etc etc. anyways bye bye bye bye bye bye *now I'm bored*
|
Man, I cannot believe that Stephanie Meyer decided to stop writing Midnight Sun because of the internet leak. I'm sure it would've turned out to be a great book but, now no one is going to get to read the finished product. This infuriates me!!! The first four books were amazing and it would've been nice to see what happens next. We can only hope that she will get over the internet leak and finish writing the book so we can all stop sitting on the edge of out seats.

Twilight is a horrible book series. Horrible. Disgusting.
|
I am not a fan of the books. I agree with others that is it poorly written and I don't like her idea of "vampires", even though I am open to new ideas about vampires, or any mythical creatures. I just find them kind of lame. I really didn't like any of the characters when I was reading Twilight. I didn't care if any of the characters died.

@Erailea-
I agree with you. I think she did leak it just for attention. I mean, who else would have access to it? If it was stolen, the she should have kept it hidden better. I doubt it was stolen though, because then there would be a huge controversy over it. @ExplodingPocky- Oh my... I love the House of Night! I have read every book, and I can't wait for Tempted to come out on the thirtieth. Have you ever read the Blue Bloods series? |

Plus, I don't think books hit the editing phase until near completion because authors write and re-write chapters (... then again, that's what GOOD authors do. I don't count Meyer among them). Only a few small chapters were put out (from what I heard from my roommate who loves the books), which means most of it wasn't done, thus there was no point for an editor to even see it. |

If you look at this website it shows you one of the very negative things about Twilight. It shows how the Twilight books are bad for your love life. It is very informative. here is the text from the article if you don't want to click the link. Quote:

@ Rosalie Thorne - I can't tell you how many time's I've heard about girl's dumping their boyfriend's to "find their Edward". Can someone please slap these people. I also heard in one of these Twilight forums floating around on this site that someone's friend is staying with her abusing boy friend and every time he beats on her he ends it with something like "this is so romantic, it's just like Twilight"
Creepy. No thank you. I'd like a kind, loving and devoted boyfriend (I am a girl), but I don't want a creepy dominating boyfriend. I like thinking and acting for myself thank you, if I want help or support I'll ask or you'll know based on my actions/reactions/mood. |
Twilight sucks -.-
