    (SPOILER)

    Edit: Was just watching those youtube videos and that fat chick is talking about the sexual stuff in the book. The anticipation she describes when waiting for sex "should always be there," oh don't worry love, it always will be for you. Stephen King is obviously stirring, baiting an easy community. JK Rowling isn't that great either.

    Rowling at least has writing ability. The Harry Potter books are well-written, even though they don't particularly hold my interest either (I read through the third book many years ago before growing bored with it) and I agree that the books are overrated. But Stephanie Meyer is just bad.

    I like the fourth Potter book because I get to change "Mad-Eye Moody" and "CONSTANT VIGILANCE!" to "Mad-Arse Moody" and "CONSTANT FLATULENCE!".

    I honestly do that when I read it.

    My brother said they were pretty good and he usually has a decent taste in books. That said I haven't read them, so I wouldn't know...

    To your word replacing thing in Harry Potter Quin; this always gives a laugh

    Remember that well.

    Am I the only one who is weirded out by the whole imprinting thing? smurfING smurfED UP!! It's like "oh haaaay I'ma get with this small child."

    I also don't understand what's so awful about being a vampire in this series?? If all that happens when you enter sunlight is that you sparkle then sign me the smurf up. I want to be that fabulous!

    Also: The entire thing is some sort of horrible Mormon propaghanda from what I gather. FURTHERMORE, Bella is a horrible horrible role model for young girls.

    The horrible writing also is ridiculous. I had to put the book down after the first 10 pages, and I've never looked back!

    Brilliant parody feat. explainations of smeyer's insecurities and mormon undertones

    Also I like nutty she's great I'm not lying, I really am fond of her, and I think people are way to mean for her just for being a rabid fan.

    *yawn* Critic

    Funny how the book critics praised the first 3 books then slammed hard on the 4th and final one.

    Remember, this is all based on Wikipedia, so be cautious...

    I think that the critics like me believe that something awesome would come along the last book... until they reached the end and saw that after all it was all good... Bleh, good is bad!XD I wanted the Volturi to kill at least one and when I ended I was like 'what? not a single death???'

    I have a question. If Edward was unable to read Bella's mind because her shieldy thing was covering her, then how come he was able to go through it and read the baby's mind while it was in her womb?

    Because Smeyer is a terrible writer.
