A Goodreads user asked this question about Twilight (The Twilight Saga, #1):
Why do people hate this book so much? They should't even be allowed to

Bella was pathetic and couldn't do anything on her own. Edward is flat and has no dynamic, and not to mention he admits to stalking Bella for months. Just goes to show all you need is a pretty face and everyone will love you for no reason at all.

It is seriously one of the worst books I've ever read. I even tried re-reading it not too long ago to see if my opinion changed from when it first came out... Nope, still an awful book.
