There are so many more deserving series of books in the same lane that deserve to blow up like Twilight did. Mind you i listened to Twilight after it blew up and between book 3 and 4.

really the first book was ok and that's a stretch. the rest of the series got progressively worse and worse.

The Hunger Games blew up and even with the shytty 3rd book i'm pleased it made it. there's stuff like City of Bones and Vampire Academy that are getting movie treatments that should do way better than Twilight but they probably won't.

looking back at Twilight Jacob was probably the only half likable character and that's pushing it. Bella was a really shytty main character and a self absorbed entitled bytch. Edward had no depth and only existed to the the "perfect gentleman" and fall in love with Bella for no reason whatsoever beyond his love for her he wasn't even a real person.. the Volturi were the best part about the series and were almost completely ignored. the shyt had no real action, humor, or anything interesting going on.

why do people like Twilight so much?

I have a very intelligent daughter who has read all these books in there entirety multiple time. She loves them
Got her mom to read one, then she ended up reading them all saying they were excellent
When the new movie drops, they make an event out of it
Its a book/movie that really touches a nerve.... in WOMEN

I personally can't speak on it cuz I haven't read a book or seen either of the movies. But I can say that more people out there disagree with your feelings
But then again.. what else is new :steviej:

Unless you're a 12 year old girl, or a 40+ year old woman that thinks she's a 12 year old girl, you lost for reading that shyt. Matter of fact, you lost doubly for reading it then coming online to discuss any aspect of it, including why it's popular.

I mean....c'mon son:

I'm all for being progressive but there ain't no god damn reason a grown man should be reading that shyt.
