Uglies or Twilight?
I like Uglies better. I tried to read Twilight twice...some parts were page turners but I can't get past certain parts...still at the part where they're at the ball game!
Oh. I've read all three books of the Twilight series and I'm impatiently waiting for breaking dawn...I'm hooked. But I liked Uglies a teensy bit better.
Uglies, all the way, hands down, no contest!
Lol!But do you like the twilight series by itself, or do you not even like that series?
I hate the twilight serries. I liked them for a period of 2 weeks before I looked closer at what I was reading. No standards at all.
Oh. I love it. XDAny particular reason why you hate it?
*Points up* I was shocked to learn she was LDS, there are no standards at all. I could go on and on............
LDS is Mormon, right?What do you mean by "no standards at all?"
Yup. And I mean how she's always sneaking out, Edward is often in her bedroom with it just him and her, and he's always kissing her; up her neck, her arms, her face, you get the picture. Sorry, I'm stuffy, I know, but still.
Oh...you mean the whole romance thing. Okay.*sigh* Then you probably shouldn't read breaking dawn...seeing as what is going to..happen in it.
Yeah, I've been wondering...I wonder how meyer's going to pull it off, when she's mormon...but this is an awkward topic so i'm going to stop now.

I agree. I like it a teensy bit more. XD
... k, ur all gonna hate me for this, but... Twilight, hands down. srry, but it was a bit more my thing... course, i read Uglies a few yrs ago... and my reading tastes may hv changed a bit since then, lol!
Nah, I don't hate you for it...I understand XD...I had a hard time choosing between Uglies and Twilight myself.
Mod
Me too...hey isn't it funny how most people that are team edward for jacob are team david for uglies, and most people who are team jacob are team zane. teehee.
TEAM EDWARD AND DAVID ALL THE WAY!!!
Your point...........? Just because I'm stuffy doesn't mean you have to be.
And you ignored me, so it works out. ^v^
You don't have to be sorry for loving Twilight, Naomi!! That's no crime!! I love it too. XD
sella? u didnt read my post carefully... i sed Twilight, HANDS DOWN. means that i didnt v any trouble deciding... and i preferred david. and for twilight, i prefer ed, but jake couda been good... i hv ONE prob w/ jake... and only one.
Snowsong, I understood what you meant. I was saying that "I had a hard time choosing between them MYSELF" as in, I differ from what you said.Grr. I HATE JACOB MORON BLACK!!!! sorry I just had to get it out there.
jacob would hv been good for bella too, except for he forced himself on her. and ed ticked me off wen me left. i understand WHY he did it, but stilll.. i only pick ed cuz jacob didnt ALWAYS look out for bella. and he changed wen he became a werewolf. if he hadnt changed, it would hv been go jake go! lol!
I hate Jacob for a lot of reasons...hmm...let me try to explain...First of all, Jacob only has his own interests at heart, and not Bella's, at all. He only wants to make himself happy. He pulls Bella away from Edward even when she doesn't want him to, just so he can be happy. He doesn't understand that Bella wants to be with Edward, and he won't back off. He is WAY too pushy. He needs to respect Bella's feelings more. And he is obnoxious and annoying and pestering and cocky and conceited and full of himself and a downright JERK!
lol, i was agreeing w/ u until that last sentance... but yeah, i can TOTALLY see where ur coming from.
lol...you don't think he's obnoxious and cocky?
well, he is... a bit.. but thas just the way he is. kiinda like im hyper all the time... i just overlook that particular personality quirk. and he's not really obnoxious to me, but that cood just be cuz im rather annoying sumtimes, and can easily ignore it. but he's also there for bela wen ed ran off, so he's not ALL bad.
i don't hate him but iike edward better, besides i would go for the hot one. :)i also think its funny tht most of the people tht read the uglies series also read the twilight.
things in common:
romance stories
have two opposing lovers over one girl
tally wants to become pretty, bella for pretty vampire
(anyone hav any more)
((*Thinks* You know, that is very true............))
Elisabeth, you mean Edward is the hot one right? NOT Jacob?
Wow that's true, Elizabeth!!You know, if there's a turning of events, and Bella ends up with Jacob, I'm going to hunt Stephenie Meyer down and stab her. And then I'll throw the book in the toilet.
Sure! We'll have a SM killing party! Lol! XD
I love both but maybe Twilight a teensy weeny bit more.
well, lets only have it if she ruins the book. I'm looking forward to Midnight Sunn and such.
I really don't know!!! right now twilight cuz I just started reading the uglies series. I might change my mind on the way, though.

New Moon (other topics)Breaking Dawn (other topics)
That's a hard thing to say...for me, they're both my two favorite series...But I think that now, when I think about it, maybe I like Uglies a bit better...
