I'll admit, I have a pretty diverse bookshelf. I have the Harry Potter Complete Series box set seguinte to my Twilight books. People who burn/flame either book are either A. extraordinarily biased or B. have a legitimate reason and may actually have something intelligent to say. To find out what people thought, I decided to ask people who surrounded me at school what their opinions were. If you're interested, read on...
I took a survey of my fellow female students to see what they thought at my middle school (what possessed me to do so, I cannot say), and many of the respostas I heard were something of this sort:
1. Edward/Jacob is hot.
2. It has mais love.
3. It's easy and/or fun to read.
I also surveyed my male classmates to see why they hated Twilight (even worse than the last one):
1. It's gay.
Other than the fact that the boys who go to my school are prejudiced, single-minded homophobes, we can draw the conclusion that everyone who reads Twilight has a very strong opinion of it. Either the readers amor it or hate it. My conclusion is that 101% of boys never read Twilight in their and say it's gay anyway. (They probably said this because it's not masculine to read a popular girl's romance novel series and they judged the books before they got to know them).
While leitura this, you're probably wondering what I think of Twilight. Personally I like it (not as much as I like Harry Potter and Warriors) but it's still pretty high up on my list of favorito books. I own the whole series, plus an unauthorized guide to the series and the movie book thing or whatever. My one problem with the books is the unpleasable fanbase. I mean, you can't get much ruder and meaner than completely-crazed Twilight fans. As an insanely obsessed Harry Potter fan, I can honestly say that I respect those who don't like Harry Potter. But if you say something rude such as "I HATE HARRY POTTER!" you can't expect me not to get offended and retaliate. I'd probably say something like "You've never read the books and you know it. You just say that because you like Twilight," and expect you to respond in a huffy way. This is understandable. But I amor Twilight, so it, too, pisses me off when someone says it's stupid or otherwise (whatever). Just remember though, I have never been a malicious fanatic.
