this is my opinion. how about the rest?
i more than agree. It's very slow-paced. It's only the last quarter of the book that it gets a bit thrilling. Guess it's not my cup of tea.

Twilight is not the best. There are still other books that are way better then Twilight.
Why would a vampire ever shine under sunlight and vampire lives in COFFIN right ??So Twilight just doesn't make sense to me...

the vampire parts was part of her imagination. the whole book was based on her imagination. so all seem like dreams...that why it is fiction...

LOL, i like the Toilet main page!!!

I think Twilight is Over-Rated.. It's above average, but not really good...

Cannot be compared to Harry Potter, which my sis say Twilight is better. Crap. Haha

And agree with TS, it's Super Draggy, especially with Jacob Part!!!

How can she like 2 ppl at a time?!?! I mean Love!!!

i'm a vampire junkie as well and i have a complete collection of all anne rice books.. but i think the twilight phenomenon is simply overrated. stephen king himself said that stephanie meyer sucks as a writer.. isn't that enough proof?

I just bought the book - New Moon. It's more of an easy reading book, nothing really spectacular. Just that the movie - Twilight made it such a big hit with Robert Pattison making vampires look so droolsome.

The book was better than the movie itself. The movie skipped many other important parts and I really wish that doesn't happen to new moon's movie.

book-based movies will 99.99% skip alot of parts...like harry porter...the twilight movie also skip alot of parts so i expect the same with new moon movie as well...i think that movie i can 2nd half of movie go back in(for those who read the book already).

maybe she trying to visualize more modern vampires.

anyway i read all the series of Twilight and cant wait for the movie - New Moon. Is also depend on personal preference whether you like the way she write.
i can imagine as i read and i cant stop reading it.

And right now just started reading Harry Potter. Cant wait to get the book 3 and more !!!
