I'm not sure if i'm supposed to put this here or in self-promo/recs so, anyways, does anyone else read the book series Twilight by Stephenie Meyer? it's more along the lines of "young adult" literature, but it's very well written and has a spectacular plotline throughout the series. I highly suggest reading it. If you've read it, what did you think? what were you expecting it to be like? was it different than what you thought it would be? favourite character? Least favourite character? who do you think should play _____ character in the eupcoming movie of the first book? www.stepheniemeyer.com

The Twilight series is possibly my favorite book series to date. I love it to little bits and pieces, all three books but the first one is probably my favorite. It's one of the only books were I totally am in favor of the protagonist the whole time, which is weird because I normally wind up hating the main character by book's end. I am a firm Jacob Black lover although I also love Edward and pretty much all the other characters. Except for Sam. I don't like Sam much at all. Aro makes me crack up with every line. I'm so glad that Emma Roberts or Emily Browning didn't get the part of Bella. I just didn't see either of them in the role.

my favourite character wld have to be Emmet. then Jacob. But the thing is, i can't really seem to have anyone in mind when thinking of actors.
but homan, the nding of the third book is so sad, when Jacob just bolts. It's heartbreaking because if Edward hadn't been in the picture,he'd have lived happily ever after with Bella.
And I can't stand Rosalie. I blame my inner Emmet!fangirl for it, but I just can't stomach her. Or Jane. She's a tad too sadistic for me.
All in all, i think it's gonna be really tough to find suitable actors for the roles of the vampiresbecause, well, the characters are PERFECT. They've all got human flaws, but the supernatural appeal overwhelms it, making them seem godly.

Sorry... I found this pretty much like every other vampire plotline you see around... plus the romance was terribly unimaginative... and the main characters are so starstruck with love as to be completely unbelievable... sorry... was it you who suggested the book before and I didn't like it..? I must have completely different taste than you...

i thought it would be all about that whole "mushy love between clumsy girl and perfect boy" but to me it doesn't seem so. maybe cause of the whole jacob factor, mabe not. the plot seems different to me.

Ummm... Yeah... I think... this thread... Lacks... Ferrets...
I've never read those books, I'm more into science / political fiction. And warped things that need a lot of brain power to understand... I used to like fantasy books a lot more, but people fret over them too much now, so they have become nothing but boring to me. I hate having to compete for knowledge about fiction.
