I want a none of them option.

Cause, well, Angel knows my general opinion of this book series. But since I don't' want to start a possible mass argument...

I'll say this, and only this.

I've seen C grade High School students write better. Bad grammar, and it read like a bad fanfic.

Thank You!! Finally, someone with a brain who can hop off the bandwagon and see flaws.

*hugs Kyle*Yes, yes, I know your hate for Twilight.

Talk away Kai. ^^ I'm a vampire fan. I do like Twilight. It is a good childern's book and move. It really is. I mean.. it has a pretty big print.. it is a decent size... It is rather simple book in how it is written.. there are some interesting vocabulary words.. but they are used through out the whole book. The author uses interesting techniques in her writing.. like making it in first person... that was interesting.. really allows you to get to know the main character Bella.. and connect to her..
The plot line was different.. interesting. She uses a lot of similes that were easy and kind of funny. I liked that.. She did dwell on some parts more than she had to.. and rushed parts that should have been a bit stretched.. so her timing was off on things.. in my opinion.
She had an interesting way of seeing vampires too.. I like the whole idea of not dieing in the sun.. but looking different, yet able to attract people more.. that does seem like a vampire thing.. not sure if it had to be sparkling though. Thus again why it is a childern's book. lol
But it was decent. I'd say it be a good book for people in middle school and maybe high school. Mostly middle or sixth graders. lol
The only real thing that bothered me mostly about the book.. though she is having all this crap go on... she seems to hit a lot on points about dieing.. and how life is precious and living moments out.. and etc... and those type of thoughts bother me.. because I tend to dwell and think to deeply into that type of stuff... so though it was subtle. I still caught it.. XP And it distracted me.. felt like it was more of that message then it was actually anything to do with vampires at all. lol But that is just me. <3

I'll admit, the plot was extremely good. It's just that it's not worth being blown out of proportion. I mean, a midnight release of the DVD? That was just pointless.

Lol. Perhaps.. I dunno. Makes the people extreme go there at night.. then the extreme people during the day who couldn't go at night.. divide the craze. But I am not sure if it helps that way. lol
I dunno.. I have a silly way of looking at things. But yes. It is blown up.. but.. I think it is good that it is.. means.. America is buying four books.. and a movie. And America buying things helps the economy. ^-^

Um, last time I checked, olives were black.


Never, ever, have I seen a white olive.

o.o Olives.. are like Italians.. they aren't white.. they are tanish... or dark skinned.. like Mexicans or such... They are olive skinned. XP

They're also green. Pimento Olives I believe.

But Olive skinned means a rich tan color. not quite golden, but a little bit honeyish I think.

^-^ Well.. my family is Italian.. or has a lot of strong Italian bloodline. So... if you really want to know true olive.. here it is..


This is my cousin. He has olive skin. That is what is what olive skin looks like. ^-^
Not sure why it matters though.. movies are always flawed. lol Always.

Wow, 13 actually thought Olive meant black.......wow....just wow.....

Oh, and I found this picture for twilight and I couldn't stop laughing.

>: D

But yes, olive skinned is what Angel said. And I can't believe we're discussing something that redundant.

Oh, come one Elgen, cheer up ^^
