er, thanks.
I find it a tad too descriptive. i.e. i turned on my computer and while i waited for it to load i made some cereal etcNEVAGIVEUP said:Oh great piece of literature. I love her writing; places me right into the moment and allows me to feel what the characters feel. However, i am not looking forward to the movie; only because of the minimal character chemistry! Oh well, never judge a book by it's cover...It's out-done Harry Potter by far!

How offputting.Freakin600 said:I was thinking about reading it but i've heard it's really not written that well - is it the kind of thing where there are heaps of little grammatical mistakes everywhere etc etc?
Also, people have been mentioning stuff about emo whingeing etc etc.
The whole book isn't just one of the main characters crapping on like 'oh woe is me?!' is it?
lol, no, that's what editors are for. the 'badly-written' comments mean that meyer spends more time developing edward as dazzlingly gorgeous (sparkly, as a matter of fact) than she does developing him into a realistic character lots of people say they can relate to the character of bella, i'm guessing they're not talking about the pathetic, boring, ungrateful, whingey part of her, just the fact that she is an average girl.Freakin600 said:I was thinking about reading it but i've heard it's really not written that well - is it the kind of thing where there are heaps of little grammatical mistakes everywhere etc etc?
and yes, bella is a whingey emo. here is the plot of the first 100 pages: 'i'm clumsy but i'm so nice, look, i'm martyring myself to save my mother's happiness by moving in with my father who loves me and tries to make me happy, but despite his efforts i'm unappreciative and self-centred! oh look, everyone at my school likes me, how horrible! except for that one guy that doesn't like me, how horrible!'Also, people have been mentioning stuff about emo whingeing etc etc.

errr...okay. =/Miffstaa said:no.
it will fry your brain and if by some possibility you do catch the syndrome, you will consider it as the best book that has ever been written...when it is not. Definitely read other literary works. I recommend 'Sand and Foam' by Khalil Gibran.

I read it and liked it, but I don't think it is the best book ever written coz it isn't. It is simply a book I enjoy reading.
some do. but most don't.Miffstaa said:
but some people do consider it as the Holy Bible.
