It's pretty much made other reading impossible.
I have this HUMONGOUS list of books I really want to read, but whenever I go to read them, I keep reading Twilight over and over and over...and over.
Completely agree, it's like the twilight series is book candy and I can't put them down, even if my waiting to read list grows every day. So now I'm all about reading fast and 3 or more books at a time, one from the series, one classic I always read like an Austen novel and a new book... too bad the new book is always the last I finish reading :roll:

After Twilight, I started reading more teen and young adult books. Just recently, I started reading wrestlers' biographies too. :lol:

Everytime I read a book, I tend to put the book down and start thinking (or reading) twilight. Or I'll put the characters in to make the book more intresting.

whenever I read a book and it is written from a narrator's point of view, it disappoints me! I want first person perspective and I want it now!!!!!

twilight hasn't really affected what i read. in fact, twilight was a huge departure from what i normally read. my favourite authors are jeffery eugenides, margaret atwood and naomi wolf. right after i read breaking dawn, i read the road by cormac mcarthy. the two books could not be more different. twilight was an exception for me. it is really unlike anything else i enjoy reading. thats why it is so special.

hmm, well, i just find myself wanting to throw whatever book im reading down and grab my copy of twilight. it's really not a healthy thing since i know i at least used to like other books. it's taken me waaay too long to start the book i'm reading now, and even longer to finish it. *looks at twilight while other book isn't looking* *sighs*
