		<description>Wow, about time you wrote about this book. Its so full of old cheesy &quot;romantic&quot; tactics that Stephanie Meyer uses someone needed to throw it out on the blarg. Honestly there&#039;s so much fucking foreshadowing in these books that nothing comes as a surprise... and really as far as i can tell its showing signs of lemonysnicket-itus (a disease that has been known to cause repetition of events).</description>

		<description>Haha, it&#039;s embarrassing, really, that I once overlooked all of the glaring flaws in this series. It must have been the post-surgery morphine I was on when I read the second and third books. 

In my defense, though, I&#039;ve always known Bella was a monstrosity of a character. It&#039;s sad to say that even a drugged, half-conscious person fresh out of the hospital can see that stabbing her to death with a particularly dull butter knife would not be a satisfying enough punishment for her god-f*cking Mary Sue-ness. I have and always will despise her with a passion that should not be possible to feel so strongly towards a fictional character. 

I must say, my favorite part in the entire series was when Jasper (my favorite character; sadly ignored for having depth) attempted to attack Bella in the beginning of New Moon. It&#039;s a pity he didn&#039;t succeed; perhaps her corpse could have been sold to science and the money could have been used on a character that acts like a RATIONAL HUMAN BEING.</description>

		<description>Lol, I actually did say that first sentence, It sucks AND it&#039;s getting shit-tons of money, I believe those were my exact words. I&#039;m only like half a fan of the Harry Potter series really but I see where you are coming from.

And come on, It&#039;s a book. Good writing is, infact, everything.
Not to mention how is a inhumanly sappy love story with terrible morals and poorly conceived role model for a main character even a remotely interesting idea?

Even forget about the fact that it&#039;s written in a way that sets a bad example for women everywhere, we&#039;ll pitch it the other way: Love story between dangerously emotionally see-sawing girl and incredibly lame vampire calvin klein model whos &quot;scintillating arm muscles&quot; you won&#039;t stop reading overly descriptive passages about. Fucking awesome idea...

Hahah. That was so bitter I could taste myself writing it.</description>

		<description>Just because it wasn&#039;t written well doesn&#039;t mean its not making a shit ton of money. You can say the exact same stuff(well some of it) about the Harry Potter series.
Good writing isn&#039;t everything. Interesting idea is even more important.</description>
