1. The fans tend to be off-the-wall crazy obsessed with it.

2. A lot of fans aren’t really fans at all. They sit through the movie and drool over the main characters and shaking in wet excitement when they take their shirts off.

3. EVERYONE keeps comparing it to Harry Potter and they are NOTHING alike.

4. It’s not very well written, full of cliches, and obviously Stephenie Meyer doesn’t own a thesaurus (much to her chagrin? Doubt it.)

5. A lot of the book is NOTHING but talking about either how perfect Edward is or how much she loves him. Action seems to have been thrown in as an afterthought.

6. When asked about the merits of their book, it’s either how HAWT the characters are or….. well, no, that’s pretty much the extent of their argument.

I’ll admit, Andrew. There are some people who actually like the series for what it is: simple one dimensional entertainment. While I don’t HATE Twilight, exactly, I don’t understand what makes it so popular, popular enough that Stephenie Meyer could be compared to our beloved Jo Rowling.

Thought I’d let you know what it is that makes some people hate Twilight. Myself, I don’t like the series all that much, but as for other people, they can do what they like with their money.

Anyway, keep up the great work on Mugglecast!
