Maybe it is because all the teenage girls would try to kill us if we said that it was a horrid book? I used to be a Twilight fan myself... Then I took a step back and looked at the actual writing. I quickly realised it wasn't all we had cracked it up to be. I'm a teenage girl myself, don't get me wrong, but it can be really predictable and not very descriptive... Every other list is starting to wear at my patience.

I so agree with you. I mean I don't hate it nor love it. I just think it's an okay book and not an 'OMG!! Everyone has to read this book!! I love it so much!! ' book. Definitely not. I'm also not too much into vampires :L
Sorry, please excuse my ranting xP :)

I was formerly a twilight ossessed fan. But, like you, I stepped back from the whole teenage girl vampire craze phase and I thought, 'Wow, I was actually crazy about this (series) ' I simply don't really understand Bella and the series began to seem a bit silly. Don't hate me or anything, it's simply just my own opinion :)

'Fallen' and 'Torment' are great books. I cant wait for the next one in the series! Happy to see the Twilight saga books up there too. Team Edward :D

Twilight is on these lists because it is a good book. It has a creative story and the author took a risk with not going with then normal view on vampires. It's captivating.

There might be some people who honestly don't think it's good, but the majority of people who say they hate Twilight or hate the writing are just afraid of being picked on if they liked it. People who vote on these lists are honest and the truth is that Twilight deserves more credit than it's given.

Twilight used to be my favorite love story. I loved Edward and Bella (sorry Jacob fans), but I must say . . . Tiger's Curse and Quest have bumped Twilight from my top spot. I LOVE this series and cannot wait for the next book to come out!!

Historical fantasy romance. Sweet to bitter to sweet. Totally awesome writer.
