this is a fantasy genre and should be remembered when reading a book about aliens, vampires, ghosts, wizards, etc. It’s hard to say there are rules for these types of books or characters.

Great comment indeed. I often said that if I wanted to read about the reality of a harsh world I would be watching the news 24/7. Or write a diary.

READER/WRITER:

If you don’t like the books, why are you here squashing our good time.

Lex, Is there a way to keep these repetitive rants from appearing in the future? I mean, it’s great to respectfully disagree, but this person’s posts (because I believe “reader” and “writer” are one and the same) are getting nastier and more frequent.

We get it. You don’t like the books. Point made. Nothing further needs to be said. Please LEAVE!

OK anyone who need two names (reader and writer are the same person according to IP) to make their point and cites the Enclyclopedia Dramatica as their primary source…draw your own conclusions.

As others have pointed out we are here because this is something we like. Thousands of people like Harlequin, S & M novels, horror novels, and any number of other things that people have deemed questionable to mind numbing mush. As a result we haven’t seen a mass psychosis of women surrendering their ideals. The real problem here is that Twilight dares to be popular, and that is driving you crazy.

it’s amazing the amount of energy you spend on something you so dislike, maybe you should examine why that is.???

lol thanks for reading it… sorry for the essay, it’s not terribly concise or sensical, but sometimes you just need to vent

Finally someone with a decent argument that has more logical evidence than personal opinion to back it up. Brilliant! And very well said!
