Гарри Поттер против Сумерек Вопрос

Should I read Twilight?

I've been thinking about it for a while, but I can't decide whether или not I should go through with it and this seemed like a good place to ask.

The storyline doesn't really appeal to me, but on the other hand this book has had such an impact on people that I feel like I'm missing out somehow by not Чтение it, if that makes sense. :/ I want to understand why people Любовь it and why people hate it.

Also, I have plenty of free time this winter. So what do Ты guys think? Is it worth Чтение или would it be a waste of time?

Hey, just thought I should let Ты all know that I have decided to read the series. I have actually already started Чтение Twilight. At this early stage I neither Любовь nor hate it - I'm trying to stay open-minded and give the book a fair chance. My goal is to understand the impact it has had on pop culture, and (who knows?) maybe even learn to enjoy a new type of fiction. Thank Ты all for your Совет - it was really helpful. :)

NO. And yes, I HAVE read all the Twilight books. I never thought that I'll ever regret Чтение a book, but if there are Книги that I regret reading; they are Twilight and A House of Night. So just don't.

Personally, I wouldn't bother Чтение it. I started the series in fifth grade; by the time I was halfway through the first book, I was ready to destroy the Далее person who told me how handsome Edward Cullen looked. But that's just my opinion. Ты might really enjoy that sort of literature. A lot of people do; I'm just not one of them. I haven't read the whole saga (again, I got sick of it before I even finished the first installment), so I'm probably not the best judge. So do what you'd like, and remember that Ты don't have to keep Чтение if Ты really don't like it.

(And if Ты haven't read them yet, Ты should also consider the Harry Potter books. Do I realize that I'm a biased fanatic? Of course. Do I care? Not on your life. But again, make your own decision about what to read. I'm no literary expert, so I don't expect Ты to take my opinion as some sort of divine ruling или anything ridiculous like that.)

Thanks for your help. :) Yeah, I don't think I'll like this kind of fiction either; that's what really puts me off. I have read Harry Potter - Любовь it!! I might still take your suggestion on board though, and re-read them all again. xD

Firstly, I'm a book lover and I will pick up ANY book and read it - not because I think I'll like it but to critique it. That is the main reason I read Twilight - and even though I did not like it, I went on to read the whole saga and came out of the experience as an avid Twilight hater. The Автор sucks. period. I won't go through the whole fiasco of why-twilight-is-doomed-to-hell because I assume you've alredy heard the whole story.

That all said, Ты SHOULD read Twilight. It will give Ты an experience of what it is, help Ты to realize that yes, there are people who write,read and like these stuff and anyways how can Ты how can Ты agree/disagree with what people say about it, criticize it или praise it (though if Ты do, I must say I'd have Остаться в живых a whole deal of respect for you) if Ты haven't read it?

Go for it I say -but Ты have been warned!!!!

Am I the only Twilight "hater" encouraging Ты to read it?

I actually think Ты should. If Ты end up liking it, good for you. If Ты end up hating it, congratulations, Ты can now form legitimate reasons for disliking it, unlike most other haters on the Internet! Win-win situation either way.

I think for first step Ты should ask someone, who was Чтение those books, did they like it? And if yes, then why? Ask as many possible people before Ты decide read или not. Try to figure out what kind of people read those books, oh well if Ты will start and after час of reading, its not getting better или not quite interesting, just stop it. And well that will be proof that Ты too good for those Книги :)

As for my own opinion, believe me, Ты missing nothing, those Книги are for super sweet, sensitive, hormonal teenagers with lot of fluffy, sparkling things around them every time and everywhere. :) I tried to read this год ago.

Do whatever Ты want.

But fair warning, If Ты plan on sharing your opinions on Twilight (which, for some reason, Ты have) it would be wise to actually read it.
It only plays into the too common "Well I bet Ты haven't even read it" argument. You're the perfect example of that.
After looking through your Опрос Ответы and your comments, it just confuses me...
I mean, really, how could Ты possibly know anything about Renesmee, not even watching the Фильмы can help Ты know anything, considering BD part 2 isn't out yet.


Until Ты read the books, you're only making uneducated opinions. Nothing more, nothing less.
If Ты want еще than that, then yes, read the books.

Read them. Don't listen to what everyone is saying. The Книги are actually not all that bad. All four of them got really good reviews. Try it out, Ты might like it :) Hell, Ты might even like it over Harry Potter. One tip that'll really help Ты out while Чтение them: don't give up. Those Книги get draggy as hell (ESPECIALLY New Moon and Breaking Dawn) just keep reading. Shit gets real in the last 200 pages (except Breaking Dawn).

No problem, I actually do go see the Фильмы and stuff, as it really does help when trying to debat things. If Ты plan on dabating here Чтение Twilight would help that and Ты may find something Ты like in the process.

It doesn't sound as if it's the kind of book Ты would enjoy reading. It is however a very Популярное series that seems to incite strong polarised reactions. So I'd say yes, go ahead and read it. It's become part of pop culture so being able to understand the references to it might be helpful. Watching the Фильмы might be another option if Ты find you're not enjoying Чтение the Книги as they're reasonably faithful to the books

If Ты have a learning disability that makes Чтение hard for Ты или Ты have a tendency to pick out grammar errors I actually suggest not Чтение the book simply because it isn't well written and it can turn into a struggle to read for some people.

My teacher told me that every book is worth Чтение no matter how bad it is. Ты need to decide whether it is your cup of чай или not and not pick it up because it is the latest fad.

I would say read them. I mean, if Ты don't like them, fine, but at least Ты can then come on here and give a fair opinion of them, which Ты can't do without having read them.
If Ты like them, great! You've just read a good book, and it may pleasantly surprise you. With me personally, I'm not really a big Фан of romance novels, but I did really enjoy the Twilight series.
Regardless, Ты could always just read them to see what all the hype is about. I mean, they are quite popular.

But if Ты do read them, I would advise Ты to put aside all biases Ты may have, and ignore what other people say about it, so that Ты can just read the Книги in an unbiased way, and give them a fair chance. If that makes sense, :)

If Ты watched the Фильмы and liked them, then you'll definitely Любовь Чтение the books. If Ты didn't like the movies, Ты might still Любовь Чтение the books.

Being a Twilight and Harry Potter Фан who's not too crazy about romance (to say the least), I loved Чтение the Книги and didn't think it was a waste of time at all. Twilight's not only a Любовь story, it's about Сверхъестественное creatures and friendship too. It actually made me laugh a couple of times too.

I honestly recommend it to you. At least, try Чтение the first book and if Ты don't like it, Ты can stop but if Ты so, it keeps getting better. When I try to remember what I read in the books, Сверхъестественное creatures are the first thing that comes to my mind so as I сказал(-а) before, the whole Любовь story between Edward and Bella is the main storyline but there's so much stuff happening around them and so many characters to discover that it becomes very interesting and fun to read.

I really enjoyed the Книги and I hope Ты will read them and get into the story like I did. It's a saga that made me feel sad when I realised I had finished Чтение it and closed the last book. Please give it a try ;)!

Good answer. When people talk about Twilight they focus so much on Edward and Bella's romance that I think the rest of the story sometimes gets forgotten, so I'm liking your Описание of it. Great stuff. :D Thank you. I think I might give it a try. :)
