If Twilight got any more attention...I swear. fyi, This list is for books that DON'T have multi-million movie franchises built around them. lol
If Twitlight is the attention of everyone, What will you people say about The Secret behind the Cross and Crucifix ranking #45
Erin wrote: "Twilight? Really? How much more attention can one bad book get?"I totally agree. Twilight has been getting TOO much attention and I can't wait until people stop talking about it so much
I liked the Twilight series, but they do NOT belong on this list. Can someone please delete them!!!!
Twilight is seriously overrated; might be a decent read (because of the hot guys involved), but nothing to go gaga over.Oooh, I remember Adrian Mole! Very entertaining!
why the fuck is twilight on here? it's not AS IF it doesn't get enough attentionand same with the lovely bones; someone has GOT to clean out this list.
"If you don't want Twilight to have so much attention well then your adding more, by ranting about it on here" posted by Julliette.The point is the name of THIS list is "Books that should get MORE attention"--not "Books that HAVE a lot of attention".
Please, people, read the names of the lists and try to think which books meet the criteria.
I agree with you there! The Twilight series (this is my opinion) should never have made it to how popular they are now. They suck that bad. I'm not just talking about the plot, but (this is my opinion again) Stephanie Meyer's writing style sounds....babyish, if you know what I mean. And some of the stuff that is in there is not appropriate for younger age groups, especially Breaking Dawn. I don't care if you reply or not to this question, but don't you think that Edward was stalking Bella when he watched her sleeping? And without her knowing? My mom's defense was that "but he loves her." So?!?! Who care's? It's stalking, end of discussion! (Sorry for ranting. My apologies.)
Ehm ... question: Twilight ?
If it was paid any more attention than it already has, I'd go crazy !
I mean, yeah,it's a great book but everybody is so ... hysterical about it that you don't feel ... I don't know how to express it ... you just don't have this feeling of privacy, that you should have when reading a book !

Yea, pretty sure Twilight has a bit too MUCH attention and done enough damage. Also, a few of these titles are already pretty well known, such as "The Lovely Bones" and "Eragon" which were both recent movies. Based on #1-100, this list should be named "YOUNG ADULT Books that should get more attention". Pretty dissapointing...
I think that it is great that some of the books that I love are on this list like Uglies but really Twilight does not need to be on there I think that they get more then enough attention, if anything they get too much attention.
Books like Twilight, the Hunger Games, Harry Potter...etc. Those books don't need anymore attention and DON'T need to be near the top of most lists, expecially this one (regarding Twilight.)
I think graceling is a good choice. My friend told me to read it i had no clue this book was even out there. Did i love this book? No. But i thought it was a nice read that deserves more attention.
some of these are really good ones but major no to twilight. no, no, no. yes to all others that were really good though
Are you kidding me? Graceling and Twilight and Shiver and so many others get more than enough attention.

Pride and Prejudice (#154) is a great book, don't get me wrong, but does one really think it needs more attention? It is mentioned/read in schools, the book has been made into series and films more than once, and so on and so forth. What more can one want? And that's just one example, as I also noticed a book with more than 800,000 ratings on this list...I very much doubt whether the creator of this list had books like this in mind, as the Listopia clearly says:
"Books that should get more attention
books you think should get more attention then they do"
It doesn't matter whether you like or dislike a title, the point of this list is whether or not you think a book that gets hardly any attention is definitely worth a read (and if so, you should vote for it).
Henryetta couldn't have put it more clearly when she said "The point is the name of THIS list is "Books that should get MORE attention"--not "Books that HAVE a lot of attention"
Jeffrey wrote: "Memories and Musings of a Post-Postmodern Nomadic Mystic Madman"Don't mention your own book like this; it's against the rules and there are other ways of self-promotion!

Umm. Have you ever thought why Twilight is given so much attention? It's because MILLIONS LOVE it.
my favorite part about this list is that 95% of the comments are just people complaining about twilight lol
