Twilight, hate it? why? Please explain.?


Question


Twilight, hate it? why? Please explain.?
I am , and I love all things books. My favorite books are the twilight series. I love these books more than anything I have ever read. I read them over a year ago and I am still in love with the story. Ive seen the movie, its ok, not amazing as some think.


Answer


SighbrbrThere is hatred towards the books because there are a lot of criticalanalytical readers out there. Not everyone reads a book for the story. A lot of people read and as they read, they look at sentence structure and plot formation and grammar and the way the story builds and grows and develops. Twilight is often repetitive in the writing and has more holes than swiss cheese. The idea itself is not too bad, but the fact that the writing is rather bland detracts from the appeal for some people.brbrAlso, you have to understand that some of the people who hate the books me included do understand that not all Twihards are insane. I have plenty of friends who like the books but dont constantly annoy me with comments like quotOmg, like, Edward Cullen should marry me because Bellas such a slut.quot Or quotOMG I LOVE TWILIGHT SO MUCH THAT IM GOING TO FORKS SO I CAN KILL BELLA SWAN.quot They like the book because it offers them an escape from the real world. That I can deal with.brbrBut there ARE crazy fans. I have a kindoffriend who dumped her boyfriend because he wasnt enough like quotHer Edwardquot. Seriously? Youve got to be kidding me. brbrI think that Ive been ridiculed, yelled at, insulted more because of my dislike of this book than any other. Just because it didnt really capture my complete interest doesnt mean that Im some horrible person. I just have a different opinion. Since when was that such a bad thing?brbrI can respect Twilight fans if they can respect me. Im not going to get on someones case because they like Twilight. Thatd be as stupid as me hating someone who likes macaroni and cheese because I think pizza is better. Everyones entitled to their own opinions. brbrIts the extreme sides of the hate itlove it that are making such a big deal of everything. Theres no need to bash people on either side.brbrFrom a writers POV, Twilight can become extremely annoying very fast. All of a sudden, everyone wants to write a book. And, imagine this, their storylines are all VERY similar to that of Twilight. It gets annoying to see all the new vampire and werewolf stories people are writing. Because theyre not writing because they love it...theyre writing because they want to be famous like Smeyer.brbrGood for you for being a rational fan. You have my respect as long as you dont condemn me for having a different view on things.
