I don't like to sound mad when I'm writing blog entries.

My sis' friend said The Twilight Series were poorly written. All I know is when I read it, I liked it. I'm not gonna sit and judge how the book should be written. If I'm gonna judge, I would be writing a whole new book myself and try to be successful with that. Who cares, right? The author's already successful and making money. I don't care if it's cliched or shallow because I've always like to read books like that. People have different preferences. Some people think Harry Potter is amazing, but I don't. I've never read it, but I kinda know what's in it. I've seen the movie, but not interested in the idea. So? It's not for me and I'm not gonna complain.

Twilight is written for young people. That's why it's labeled under "Young-adult." So it has to be written like that. If the author aims for adult audiences, she probably wouldn't be writing it like that. Like Anne Rice books are written for adults. So there is a reason for it being written that way. So if you want a book with fancy language, don't look for it in Twilight. So go read something like Edgar Allan Poe or Lovecraft. Those are amazing pieces of literature. It doesn't matter if you don't understand the hype about Twilight. The best part about the book is when the author mentions every little thing about Bella's life. I like the little details. Who cares if you don't like it? That's why books are written differently. We wouldn't say books for 5 year olds are lame, right? That's why The Cat in the Hat is catergorized under children's books. I guess. That's just my thinking.

Even though I'm not a kid anymore, I still enjoy reading children's books all the time. In a Dark, Dark Room will always be my favorite. At the same time, I enjoy reading Mary Shelley's Frankenstein.

I just think it's annoying.

I agree with you. I'm 24 and enjoy the Twilight series. Big deal. I know the writing isn't amazing but that's not why I read the books.

Some people just like to hate things simply to hate them, which seems like such a waste of time and energy.

Stephanie Meyer
I met Stephanie Meyer in person. she is a very humble and simple person. Her audience is young adults. She is writing adult novels. The first one is The Host. It was hard to read after the young adult series. I enjoyed all the books in the twilight series. It is obviously NOT for everyone.
