    Re: Anyone Else a Twilighter?

    I enjoyed Stephanie Meyer's writing style, but the actual content of the book was really lacking.

    The characters were all mediocre. Bella is incredibly weak as a character, and seems to serve as little more than a way for the 14 year old girl reading it to try and insert herself into the story.

    Edward is very clearly designed almost only to be fangirled over. He's written well as a character for people to fangirl over, but that sure as **** doesnt make him something even remotely resembling a well developed character.

    As for the plot, there barely is any.

    Meyer's writing was enjoyable though, and made me want to keep reading, even despite her habit of describing every single mundane thing that ever happens. BELLA'S GETTING A BOWL OF CEREAL NOW. RIVETING. So, I would like to see Meyer write something that isn't a trashy vampire romance.

      She actually wrote another book called The Host. You might like it.

                      I've heard much about the Twilight series. Is it worth reading even though Tokzic says it sucks?

                            I wish Breaking Dawn didn't happen.
                            Besides that, I still like the series.

                            Jacob and Bella forever.

                            P.S. I'll still see the movie

                              EAG, I find it to be a very good book. It has romance, action, and a little bit of comedy. The storyline is very linear, so it's an easy read. If you need to find a copy, ask a Twilight fanatic at school if you can borrow their copy, because then they'll just have to read one of the other 3 books in the series that they probably already own.

                                I'm on Eclipse, to be truthful new moon was really boring until the middle/end. I loved twilight the best specifically cause it had lots of romance. Can't wait to start breaking dawn!
