A slightly positive review?

12. I thought it was OK. It's not the best thing ever and the main character was sort of ridiculous in the second book, but I liked it enough to actually buy the third book.

If you want, I can upload ebook versions of the first two so you don't at least waste your money if you end up not liking.

It's more well-written then most vampire shit, actually. It's very character-centric, so there's not much action.

My complaint is that the plot is the SAME. DAMN. THING. in all three books. I am not fucking kidding you. If you end up not caring about Edward and Bella and their dysfunctional relationship, don't continue reading. There's nothing else there for you.

Since I'm a sucker for romance and drama, I ended up liking the book, but... eh, I'm not surprised everyone else hates it.

Lol I feel soooo dumb for saying this but EBOOK? Wow. This world amazes me with its never ending technology. (What the hell I'm not even 18--)

Would it be too much trouble? I'll probably end up reading the entire series, no matter what I think of it because I don't want to just judge something I haven't finished.

Thanks so much in advance~ ♥

HAHAHAH well... it's a text file. I dunno why I wrote "ebook". XD; Someone actually typed up the two books or something. >>;

But yeah, here ya go! The third one is Eclipse, but since it just came out... But yeah, I guess if you like the first two you won't have a problem with buying the third.

Twilight (http://www.sendspace.com/file/kt791p)
New Moon (http://www.sendspace.com/file/e7co2p)

I'm such a hardcore pirate, I don't even buy BOOKS anymore. >:[ *thrown in jail for copyright violation lulz*

7: Your afraid because of the batch of icky people? You don't want to say you like fandom because of what other people have associated with fandom?

Why don't you say it and prove them wrong? Show that fandom isn't just a bunch of sick freaks... your friends should be fine with you as you are.

Wow, lots of time on their hands.

Thank you! I want to see what the hype is about. I mean, all I ever hear is the rave for how hot so and so is or the rant that Stephanie Meyer can't write to save her life.

I always buy books. XD *nerd* Made my eyes go bad lol. And it doesn't help I buy so much manga these days with the tiny print and I don't wear my glasses.

*takes a deep breath* HERE I GO. *shield and sword ready*

Yeah. I tried to fix the typos and such, but I'm sure I missed a few things. ^^;

eh, she's not a professional writer anyway. She's a stay at home and only started writing because she had a dream about the two main characters. I'm surprised the book is as popular as it is, but I think it's pretty good considering it's origins.

I think what I really like is the unconventional take on vampires and werewolves. I don't read many vampire books, but I never heard of the ideas she came up to explain why vampires don't like sunlight, etc. and I like how it works when you think about it. XD; But yeah, GOOD LUCK AND GODSPEED.

I fail at finishing my sentences. :[

20. It's just that it got so silly in points--and not obviously intentionally so--that I had difficulty taking the actual serious moments seriously.

I'd take the popularity with a grain of salt. Eragon is popular too, remember?

But I haven't read the books, so I wouldn't know specifically. (I'm not about to, though--I AM SO SICK OF VAMPIRES. A;SLDKFJ FUCKING ANNE RICE. DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT FOR A CHANGE AND MAYBE I'LL BE INTERESTED A;SLDKFJA;SLDKFJ sorry.)

Fanon Oshitari is one of my least favorite fanon portrayals ever. =(

14: Brilliant idea! Clearly I should finagle [livejournal.com profile] akatokuro into joining an RP with me so I can make sure no one out there dares to RP one of my least favorite Phoenix Wright couples!

If the only thing keeping you around is the idea of a couple you dislike being RPed somehow, somewhere, that's pretty damn sad.

1. Agree!! Love that movie. One of my favorite Disney classics

2. Uhuhuhu

5. I gave up on Lost ages ago, but mom still watches it and I walked in on that episode. My response was basically "lolo way to get rid of what little greatness was still in this show" =\

10. Not at all. Provided you do it well, I tend to vastly envy people who write a lot. It doesn't matter WHAT you write, sitting down and doing it is admirable =\

16. Work on convincing yourself that it DOESN'T MATTER WHAT ANYONE ELSE LIKES. /o/ moar productive.

20. it was remarkably good FOR IT'S TIME. Cowboy Bebop was so well done that it could be still be respectable if made TODAY and. it's older than that *forgets how old* PLOTWISE and character wise it doesn't stick out for me especially.

17. Ahahahahaha, YES.

OMG F-----ING YES!

yes, Ichigo SHOULD DEFINITELY END UP WITH CHAD. At least the pairing brats would stop complaining about which girl Strawberry ends with.

Hmmm, I remember playing the first three and thinking, "oh goody! I get to kill field mobs to lvl up so that I can kill dungeon mobs to get to some random npc at the end of the dungeon, and then rinse, lather, and repeat until the last person ends up being the lame final boss. Whoopie!" I tried to convince myself I was playing for the story, but not even that can keep me interested. The sad thing is it took me 3 games to come to this realization. XD

19. I choked in surprise before the jealousy hit. Lucky bitch, indeed. Although, Lee would be hotter. (Or Lee and Gai and - shutting up.)

21. ...YOUR MOM IS HOT. *A*

3.) I'm really glad what the rest of my fandom ships is mostly slash with a side of canon!gay, or they'd probably call me all sorts of names for my twincesty ship.
But that looks totally hot, what series is that? :D

[identity profile] kosher-jenny.livejournal.com 2007-08-19 06:18 am (UTC)(link)
4. What is this series/film? It looks like it has some very pretty costumes interesting. :)

8. I didn't see it, but every time I see a photo from the movie I'm tempted to rent it, just because of the pretty. *_*

Yes.

Just yes. You are an awesome, if special, snowflake.
