Meyer rushed through it, making the grammar horrible, the characters have next to no personality, misnaming both of her supernatural creatures, and made something already over-cliched SO MUCH WORSE.
A good book does not have Mary Sue characters, purple prose, and plot holes galore.
Twilight does.
Harry Potter does not.
I mean, Twilight is advertised as a 'romantic love story between a vampire and a human'.
It's not.
It's not romantic, it's creepy. A guy following me around, watching me sleep, emotionally abusing me, controlling, and manipulating me is not sweet or romantic, he's creepy and a stalker.
It's not love. There is no reason other than he's beautiful and she smells good given for their 'love', and there's no time for them to develop it. It's lust.
Yes, as an author you are allowed to take creative liberties with your book. Look at Cirque du Freak. Their vampires do not have fangs, yet they still are vampires by (nearly) all of their other traits.
Meyer's characters are maybe, MAYBE 10% vampires, and that's me being nice.
Their characteristics are not that of vampires, but of faeries. If you don't believe me, look them up.
That and her 'werewolves'. -rolls eyes-
A 'romantic love story between a vampire and a human'? No. A 'creepy lust story beween a faerie and a human'? Yes.
The next time Meyer writes about supernatural creatures, I highly suggest that she do some research, learn grammar skills, and read over what she wrote as she goes. There are so many contradictions in her Twilight series that it's not funny.
That's another thing. How many words have to be used incorrectly and way too many times before she learns?
Chagrin? Verbose? Saga?

The grammar sucks, there is hardly any plot, what little plot there is is completely ruined by Meyer's inabilty to write anything good, it's SO cliche, it'... Easily.
The grammar sucks, there is hardly any plot, what little plot there is is completely ruined by Meyer's inabilty to write anything good, it's SO cliche, it's totally predictable, the characters are flat, don't develop, are stereotypical, the women are forced to be subservient to the men, if you're a girl you can't think or act for yourself, etc. etc. I could go on and on.

Harry Potter was much better written- Twilight was a thesaurus raper.
Harry Potter had a grain of originality- Twilight didn't.
J. K. Rowling is a better author that Stephenie Meyer.
Harry Potter was not full of whiny-ass Mary-Sues.
Rowling can take criticism. Meyer cannot.
Meyer whined and cried about the whole Midnight Sun leak. How could you seriously expect that would NOT happen? You roll with the punches, not be a drama queen and put the entire book on hold.
Bella was helpless and anti-feminist. Hermione was not.
Nowhere in Harry Potter will you find a controlling and abusive boyfriend. ...or a 107-year-old virgin.
Harry Potter had properly named creatures. Twilight didn't.
Harry Potter has won WAY more awards than Twilight ever will.
Harry Potter has become successful to the point where J. K. Rowling is the world's first (and so far only) billionaire author.
The entire series of Twilight: 80% describing what Edward looks like, 20% of everything else.
J. K. Rowling proved that some young-adult novels can be over 500 pages. Stephenie Meyer proved that some shouldn't be.
Sexism in Twilight. 'nuff said.
Twitards. Once again, 'nuff said.
It took Meyer five years to write an entire series. It took J. K. Rowling five years to plan out her series. Hmm... I wonder which one was better. -taps chin- (more) -
Demi has talent. Miley definitely does not.

You do NOT have the right to be saturate (I'm only going to talk about the US here, because that's the country I live in. =]) this country's laws based on your beliefs. Why should I, an Atheist, be forced to carry around money that says 'in God we trust' when I don't? Why am I forced to say "I pledge allegiance, under God" or "I pledge allegiance to thee, Texas, one state under God" when I don't? Why do I have to walk into a building and be judged (<-- and yes, I do mean when I'm a defendant in a legitimate court case) in a building covered in other's beliefs?

There's a reason that there is a separation of church and state, but the line is getting more and more blurred every day, as more legislation is getting passed with purely religious reasons behind them.
I don't mind if you're Christian, Jewish, Catholic, Mormon, Buddhist, Muslim, etc. But I don't want to have to live in a society that's bended by your rules.
I applaud those that are trying to get this stuff taken down. People only think that they're trying to force their beliefs on everyone else, but they don't realize that that's what the statues are doing first. They're forcing (for example) the ten commandments on us. You did it first. ;] (more) -

I can play guitar, keyboards, percussion, and sing. No, I can't do better than Zac, but as for the others, especially vocals, I could.
So you're saying that if you're not well-known, you're automatically shitty, and have no talent? Bullshit. Quite a lot of the well-known bands are shitty, but apparently, according to your logic, they're good.
Way to fail. (more)
