i will adress some points people bring up about twilight:
1) Bella is a shallow, Mary Jane who has NO backbone at all and depends on her boyfriend.
- Bella is a CHARACTER. She is not you or me. Characters have characteristics that are ALL THEIR OWN. Yeah, i know you say thats not an excuse. ill think of something better later.
2) The Vampires in twilight are not how vampires are supposed to be!! They're too much like humans.
- Who said that all vampires have to be the same? Its Stephanie Meyer's story, she can do whatever she wants with it. If you don't like it, that's okay, but its not a very good point too argue. That's an element Stephanie Meyer added to her story. HER STORY!! Also, the Cullens aren't the only vampires in twilight! They're supposed to be an exception to the other vampires in the book - the ones that portray your typical image. Is the volturi bad enough for you?? the newborns?? most people who come up with points about this series only read the first book, which is THE FIRST BOOK. it.. introduces you to a series. If you don't know what im talking about, then you have false opinions about the first book alone.
3) This book is all descriptions about edward.. and edward.. and edward.. its annoying!!
-ill have to admit, the first book is mainly about adward. It IS a romance book after all. If you also complain that theres no plot, there is. These books are a part of a series.If the first one is mainly romance, if you say there is no plot THAT IS THE PLOT. Trust me, the rest of them are filled with both. Truly, twilight is not my favorite book in the series. That would be new moon or eclipse. Theyr'e both filled with romance, drama, action, mystery... i love these books!

that propably didnt convince anyone... it was sorta rude and not very convincing. im more convincing in person!!!
ill make it better when i have more time.
ADIOS!!

Before you, Twilight, my life was like a moonless night. very dark, but there were stars- points of light and reason... And then you shot across my sky like a meteor. Suddenly everything was on fire; there was brilliancy, there was beauty. when you were gone, when the meteor had fallen over the horizon, everything went black. Nothing had changed, but my eyes were blinded by the light. I couldn't see the stars anymore. And there was no more reason for anything.'

I was drawn into this book like I have never been drawn into a book before. I have read it too many times to admit to, and I have no explanation why. I love, love, loved it. Great for teenage (and non-teenage) girls everywhere.

...And it may have caused me to fall in love with a fictitious character...Stephenie Meyer, how did you do it?????
