Possibly you are thinking of the Twilight series by Stephanie Meyer!.

They have been compared to the Harry Potter books in terms of popualrity, but I think the range they are likely to appeal to is probably much narrower!. The Twilight books are told from the point of view of a teeange girl and are largely concerned with her romantic involvement with a vampire, and later also with a werewolf!. The characters are not as interesting and diverse as the characters in harry Potter, and although there is some action in the books, the emphasis is largely on romance!. Nor is there any of the humour that you find in the Harry Potter books!.

The Twilight books aren't bad, but they haven't got the wide appeal of the harry Potter books, in my opinion!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The series in question that you are referring to would be the 'Twilight' series!. While its author is indeed referred to as the 'next J!.K!. Rowling,' the two series are in no wise similar!.

Whether it be characterization, plot development, writing style, sheer popularity, or sales numbers, the Harry Potter series has proven itself to be superior, and the refernences to Meyer (author of the 'Twilight' series) as being the 'next Rowling' are nothing more than publicity that serves as both false advertisement and a means to attempt garnering a still larger fanbase!.

If you are looking for it simply for the fact that it has been hailed as the 'next Harry Potter,' it would be best if you save your money, as you would be sorely disappointed!.

If you are simply looking for a mindless read, go ahead and look into it!.

And, finally, if you are simply asking to figure out what the general ideas about said series are, you will find that your answers will largely come from females of the 9-14 variety in terms of favorability!. (Yes, I am aware that the fanbase is also found amongst 35+ something housewives, but was merely pointing out where the majority of its fans can be found!.)Www@QuestionHome@Com

Twilight is nothing like Harry Potter!. It is at best hack fan fiction--the work of a very poor author!. It's fanbase is 11-16 year old fangirls and a very scary group of housewives who spent months stalking the movie set!. And contrary to what you have been told, it is not a small group who have a problem with the last book Breaking Dawn!. Amazon has a forum called Return It Don't Burn It and thousands of books have been returned in protest!. The last book is revolting!. I don't see how you can compare Harry Potter to a pregnant woman vomiting fountains of blood while having morning sickness or delivering her baby by having her husband chew through her uterus and amniotic sac!. Stay away from it!. According to my son who read the first few chapters of Twilight, it isn't a guy thing anyway!. It's about a Mary Sue klutzy high school girl who somehow lands the hunkiest guy in the school who just happens to be a vampire!. Pax-CWww@QuestionHome@Com

The Twilight series by Stephanie Meyer!.

It has been compared to Harry Potter, which is why I picked it up last week!. There are currently four books out, I read two of them in three days!.

But, they are nothing like Harry Potter!. I enjoyed them, but they are not really that "good" to be honest!. They are very easy to read, and they may catch your interest as they did mine!. But the mythology of these books is nothing compared to HP!. They are more about love and romance, and happen to involve vampires!. I wouldn't even describe them as a vampire series!.

also, while Harry Potter seems to appeal to both men and women of nearly any age, Twilight is really directed toward women in their teens and up!. I've yet to talk to a guy that read them!. I wouldn't recommend them to my boyfriend, who got me into Harry Potter!. Not the same audience at all!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Its called the Twilight Series!.!. They're amazing! =]
and the last book of the series [Breaking dawn] just came out and everyone was freaking out about it!.!.!. I was too!. =]

You might have heard that it knocked off Harry Potter on the Best Sellers List!. The Harry Potter Series have nothing in common with the Twilight Series!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Twilight!. It's really good, although I don't think it's anything like Harry Potter in any way!. In a way, it is much more modern than Harry Potter and is deeper and more mysterious and romantic!. Harry Potter is more fun though!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

probably the twilight series, and it's awesome!. the only reason it's compared to harry potter is because robert pattinson is going to be in the twilight movie!. he was previously in harry potter!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

You're most likely hearing about the twilight series by Stephenie Meyer!. It is a good series, no matter what a minority of people think about the fourth book, Breaking Dawn!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
