Ha!. I posted a question a few days ago about how Twilight is not Literature, it is Popular Fiction!. Basically, if you like it, that's fine, but please stop saying it should be taught in Lit classes because it is NOT Lit!.

Of course I got at least five responses that said, "OMG ov cors its literature i mean Edward is purrrfect! and i want to b Bella!!"

Not exactly an explanation as to how it is literature!. Pretty entertaining though!. Doesn't appeal to me at all!. I'm an adult, an English major, a feminist, I am in a serious relationship, and I love the horror genre!. I do not want to be Bella, vampires should kill, not sparkle, I prefer my men less controlling/emotionally abusive, and books should have more of a story than whether or not the hot guy is going to kiss the girl!. And may I reiterate, vampires do not sparkle!.

Most of the hardcore fans are teen girls who have never read another book in their lives so they have absolutely no idea what good literature is!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I wish I could say that it is because Stephenie Meyer is a genuinely good story-teller, and while she IS, I think we all know that is unfortunately not how books become so outrageously famous!.
I'd say that it is the fan base!. The Twilight Saga has a fiercely loyal fan base, (probably mostly thanks to Edward), and said fans are quite happy to shout the virtues of the series from the rooftops and convince their friends to read it!. And since they ARE good books, their friends will tell their friends and their friends will tell their moms and pretty soon some crazy person will form The United Holy Church of Edward and it'll become the next cool religion!. (Just kidding!.!.!. but seriously, I'm almost waiting for it to happen!.) Www@QuestionHome@Com

Basically the romance between Edward and Bella and pretty much how the vampire is attracted to the human!. And he happens to just be every girl's dream boy!. Plus the whole question of whether Edward will change Bella into a vampire!. It's kinda a weak plot but I still love the detail of it, which is mainly why people read it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Err, well I use to be a fan!. Before I read Breaking Dawn!.!.!. ughh stupidest book ever!.
Anyway, it's because it's so unique, I think!. Haha!.!.!. truthfully it's about some hot Greek God!.!.!. who happens to be a vampire and falls in love with some chick (whom everyone wants to be)!.
