She's taking it too far. Stop already. Don't make the series any more worse than it already is 🤣

Quote from Tutli-Putli

O.O Wow, some pretty extreme reactions on this thread... I feel almost compelled to defend Meyer simply because no one else is 🙁

I watched the Volterra interview and Meyer never claims to be a better writer than Shakespeare or Austin. Nor does she claim that Twilight is better written than the Princess Bride. She's explicitly asked by the interviewer to compare different depictions of true love in classical literature to her own depiction in Twilight, and feels that from a feminist perspective Bella is a better role-model than Buttercup. While I wouldn't necessarily agree with Meyer's analysis of the Princess Bride or consider it to be a first-rate argument (she doesn't consider the subversive potential of parody, and if I ever had a daughter the obsessive Bella is perhaps the last fictional role-model I would want her to have), it's still a legitimate answer to a question prompted by the interviewer.

Yes Meyer is a weak writer, but I'm not sure what you hope to accomplish with this bashing thread...

One of the most sensible posts here.

And no, I've never read any of Meyer's books. Calm down people. 🤣

I'm surprised that this thread is still thriving...

I also love how she thought people would eventually "accept" Failure Dawn's ending, refusing to admit people would hate it - at least JKR had the balls to realize a lotta people would hate HP7.

I remember that >:-( She said "just read it again," she said we would come to love it eventually. >:-(

lolwut ?[/quote]It was in that documentary of hers, Life of J.K. Rowling or w/e. ;P

@Masami: Lies. She didn't even read my first post correctly. :3

Twilight.
Sucks.

Stephenie Meyer is psychotic. Edward is her perfect lover...
Sparkly, controlling, and he has a thirst for blood. That sounds so romantic.

I'm amazed how much hatred and dislike there is towards Twilight. And I love it 🤣

Twilight is the reason why we have a low reading rate in America and why people fail at English. 🙂

Twilight fans need a rain check thinking Stephanie Meyer is close to a god which she isn't! She could never compare to Jane Austen!

I like Twilight so I respect Stephanie Meyer, but if she really did say that she's better than Jane Austen, she is just WAY too self-confident. There is now way she could compare to her. But I still love them both! 😃

Not entirely ture, reading anything always raises knowledge, no what it is that you read.
And frankly, I'm glad people are reading this rather than some other book with terrible writing AND stuff about drugs and sex and all that.

Reading pulp fiction with no factual basis raises knowledge? How, pray tell, does that work exactly?

"Stuff about sex and drugs" actually has a moral basis, so at least it would explore controversial issues and thus be more intellectually stimulating... I really don't see where you're going with this. Almost Transparent Blue by Murakami Ryu is terrible in terms of artistic value and was largely just written for the sake of stirring up controversy, but it's still important for modern Japanese literature precisely because it does, in fact, explore those themes.

NightSwan also said that she wanted to peg me, once, but I'm not sure whether to take that as a compliment or a threat...

Where the hell did this thing stem from?
Although, I must say both of them are equally
over-hyped. Don't like either, but I can't read a
moralist book without ripping it into two and
burning it in my furnace so I'd rather read Shakespeare's
overly dramatical stuff.

I've heard people say "well at least they're reading something," and that SM has inspired teens to read and write, but her books contain bad messages. Some I understand, while some people seem to pull these "messages" out of their ass. But they are definitely there.

Ya'll do realize I meant that as a joke right? 😛
I didn't mean it to spark the true reason why our literacy rate is low. 😮 😀

The fact that Jacob imprints on Bella's DAUGHTER sickens me only because that makes Eclipse IRRELEVANT! It makes me sick that he was "in love with Bella" just because her later daughter was his imprint. BS!

Just a few. I'm tired.
