What about the rest of you? Do you like reading or is TW an exception (e.g. for your girlfriend's sake).shape-shifter wrote: I love reading
I love reading, too, the more pages a book contains, the better.

You are fabulous, brave Shape-shifter!shape-shifter wrote:lol i didn't have a gf to make me read it I just read it. When I saw that they were making a movie, i was like "OMG, there's a major fantasy franchise that everyone else has read but me!" so i immediately asked my mom if I could go to B&N to pick up TL, NM, and EC (breaking dawn wasn't out yet)
I liked it. I don't get why some ppl are all turned-off by the romance thing. I didn't mind it. I really didn't care, the books are great
Satsu-kun - of course the book is aimed at 'chicks', it was written by a 'chick'. But does that mean that I will be less biased when I read Stephen King? (which I have done a lot of) Or are you really describing the emotional pull it would have for young and older women alike? Hmm, perhaps that is bias, but something about saying that just irks me for some reason.Satsu-kun wrote:Not "as" biased. This is a book aimed at chicks, and you know it. It doesn't center around any of the gorgeous female vampires that just take our breath away. It is centered around Edward, and Bella.
All i'm saying is guys are going to be WAY less biased because we dont have the "prince charming" fantasy going on with us. ^^

I'm so with you there. I get anxious when the pages left in a really good book dwindle down to nothing. I actually have to take a deep breath when I'm reading, and look at the chunk of pages that I have left to remind myself not to read so fast!waiting for a meteor wrote:

The fact that you read them and want to go to the movie is very impressive. My husband will not be going with me, instead, I will be taking my latest Twilight convert and girlfriend to a midnight showing.Calicoxx wrote:shape-shifter wrote:lol i didn't have a gf to make me read it I just read it.

When I found out about the movie, I texted my ex saying, "We're going to go see that." Sadly, not that I actually ashamed to go to the store and buy the book, but there is no way I am standing in line for Twilight by myself.
