Reading it OVER and Over and OVER again (Twlight saga)?

Question: Reading it OVER and Over and OVER again (Twlight saga)!?

I'd like answers from Twilight lovers/likers/not haters only!.

I'm almost done with Breaking Dawn, and I'm waiting for Midnight Sun (YES!.) and the movie!. But, until then, I'm thinking about just reading the saga over and over and over again until the movie/midnight sun ect!. Come out!.

Is this a good idea!? And, if you didn't do this, what'd you do to fill the void!?

ThanksWww@QuestionHome@Com

That's what I have been doing!. I just can't stand to wait till Midnight Sun, so I started reading Twilight, again, for like the 7th time, and it really helps me fill the void!. I love rereading the books, and finding little things that you didn't notice before!. You should go to Stephenie Meyers sight, and read the first Chapter of Midnight Sun, then read Bella's first day of school, and compare them!. It is really funny to do! Oh and if you haven't already, go to Stephenie's sight, and read her outtakes from the books!. It makes it easier to wait!. Hope I helped :)!.

NO IT IS NOT A GOOD IDEA!. My cousin read the Saga over and over again 8 times when she was waiting for Breaking Dawn!. She was TOTALLY OBSESSED and her sanity was leaving her!. She couldn't think of anything else!. She started doing this in June and she's still reading them again!. When I was rereading the Saga while waiting for Breaking Dawn (only once), I became infected by this Twilight insanity disease!. After finishing Breaking Dawn, I decided on a Twilight-cleansing series!. I am now reading Artemis Fowl, and after that I will move on to other fairy tales to purge the Twilight remnants from my mind!. You seem to be suffering from Twilightitis, so I would recommend a similar treatment, otherwise your brain will be taken over by Twilight, just as my cousin's brain was!.

Reading over the answers, I would diagnose that approximately 50% of your responders have the same condition!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I like the Twilight series but there are just so many amazing books out there that can be read!. Life's too short to be stuck on one thing!. It's ok to reread but doing it over and over and over again!? That's like eating steak every single day, eventually you'll lose the taste and you'll forget why you liked steak so much!. Same with Twilight, eventually you'll lose the meaning and you'll forget why you liked it so much!. Go read some other books!. Reading is good! Go to your local librarian and tell them the types of books you like I'm sure they'll be able to recomend some good stuff for you!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I love the series, but I think that this is a little extreme!. Try reading some other books in the period of waiting!. You will be amazed at how many great books exist outside of the Twilight universe!.

Maybe read some of the books and plays that are mentioned in the series!.
ie:
Romeo and Juliet--Shakespeare
A Midsummer Night's Dream--Shakespeare
The Merchant of Venice--Shakespeare
Wuthering Heights--Emily Bronte
Empire--Orson Scott Card

There are others, but this is all I had on the top of my mind!.

If you'd like to, maybe reread the series once more after you're finished with Breaking Dawn, but no more after that!. You can always look back through them right before Midnight Sun is released!. You have over a year before Midnight Sun--no matter how much you love Twilight, it is just not healthy for someone to reread a book that many times!.

I was in your stage--after I finished Eclipse!. You honestly just lose that vital interest after a while!.

Read something else!. Right now I'm tackling my way through Harry Potter!. I'm not obsessed like I was with Twilight, but it definitely keeps me busy and distracted!. There are a million romance novels out there if you like love stories, and also a ton of vampire/supernatural books!. Hunt around at your library!.

Twilight is only going to get less and less enriching with every read if you do it that complusively!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

I re-read a lot of books!. But I don't see the point in obsessively re-reading only certain books and not reading anything else!. That seems obsessive and unhealthy to me!.

There have been occasions when I turned around and re-read a book right after I finished it the first time because it was so damned good!. But I think re-reading works better if you let some time go by first, and read other things before coming back to that particular book or series!. You see a lot more!. It's also a bit like going home again after being away for a while, exploring other places--the familiarity is nice!. But re-reading nothing but the same book or series is like never leaving the house at all!.

There have been some good recommendations made on this thread for other books!. Right now, I'm reading Scott Westerfeld's Uglies series (I'm almost done with Specials) and I almost couldn't put them down, they're so good!.

Or another thing you could do is read the books that influenced SMeyer, then go back and read the Twilight series!. There's a list of authors and books on this thread:

You know I kinda have a problem like that too!. I cant stop thinking abput the Twilight saga, but like Metro Station said, maybe you should get some friends, or just watch a TV show!. (At least thats wat I did to distract me)

The Twilight saga wasnt coming outta my head but I found the show "The Secret Life of The American Teenager" so I'm fine now!.

Hope I helped!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

haha its okay thats exactly what im doing but dont revolve your life around it!. the first time i read the series i read it none stop but nowe i just read it when i get bored and find other stuff to do like homework or t!.v or hang out with friends!. sometimes i read other books too -you should try the series vampire beach!. you should also mainly read twilight in bed at night time before you go to sleep so you have something to look forward to all day or just read it when your bored!.
HOPE I HELPED!Www@QuestionHome@Com

personally i hate reading books twice, but this is a series i would DEFINITELY read over and over again!. the thing is some people say that once they read it again the book seems cliché and stupid!. i don't want to view my favourite series that way!. but, others say they loved it more every time they read it, so i really don't know which is correct!. i am afraid to risk it though!Www@QuestionHome@Com

welll since ive already read eacher book 10 times and i know the saga by heart reading it over and over will do no good for me so in the meantime i plan on discussing it waiting out the movie and starting another vamp!. series marked chosen betrayed!. then blue bloods and so on:]Www@QuestionHome@Com

haha! i've been doing this for the past couple of months!.!.but if i were you i would just read the whole series over like once and then read some other books! you don't want to just read the same books your whole life!.!.!.no matter how AMAZING it is! but you can reread it like once!.!.!.i can't wait for all the twilight stuff coming out!!! hope this helps!Www@QuestionHome@Com

i am doing the same thing lol! i never get tired of the books! but i had to squeeze in books for school lol! but i am still reading them over and over and over again! my parents always laugh at me about it!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yes its a wonderful idea!.!.!.
I finished all the books in four days!.!.!.and then read them over again thrre times!.!.!.!.It helps you get things that you missed before and also helps you understnad the books better than the first time :DWww@QuestionHome@Com

I have not personally read the books so I am not a liker or hater but my daughter has!.!.!.!.!. I have encouraged her to read other books!. There are countless books out there that you would enjoy just as much!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
