Question: Does anyone else think Twilight is overrated and aimed towards desperate pre-teen girls!?
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Oh yeah!. It's pretty much a written soap opera!.

But what isn't!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

It's one of those books that you can get hooked on really easily!. I really like it but everyone prefers different things!. But I don't agree with the fact that it's aimed towards desperate pre-teen girls because I know plenty of girls AND guys between the ages of 16 - 21 who enjoy the book!. Plus, the author didn't write the book towards a specific audience, if you do your research you will see that she's not even a professional writer and twilight was the first book she ever wrote based off of a dream she had, she never expected it to be as big as it is!.
also, you can comment on whatever you like, but in my opinion you should read a book before you make this kind of statement!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I agree somewhat!. I don't believe that Twilight was meant to target pre-teen girls!. I read the series way before it was popular and fell in love with it!. However, once it became more and more popular I saw the trend and felt overwhelmed by the response to underage girls becoming obsessed with this novel!.

I agree that it is ridiculous, but you can't judge a book by its cover!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

As much as i love the book i have to come clean!. the last book did aim its self too much towards "happily ever after" then i would have liked!. so maybe it is more of a book for preteens but its such a fun read you can't help but fall a little in love!.a lot of people, my mom for example, read the book and said she liked it but it was to "fairy taleish"!. HELLO, these are a new type of vampires, not the usual!. So of course its going to lean towards younger kids!. Basically, great book, maybe for the preteen girls but i feel that anyone can get hooked if they let themselves be!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

have you read the books !?

they are a bit over rated there
not the best books I've read
and every one is like going
massively insane over them
but they are a really good series
and its easy to get into them

what your talking about

and there and lots of people
who read them not just preteen girls
theirs guys that read them to and
lots of different age groupsWww@QuestionHome@Com

yes i do

but you know what i hate more than twilight!? people who ask questions about it!. dont get me wrong, i am 100% against twilight, i hate the fangirls, i hate how they love and obsess over a creepy, stalker, DEAD, FICTIONAL character, and i hate SM's horible writing skills and how she comletly broke her own rules in the series with "nessie", and made everyone immoral, cheesy, and clingy and i hate how i could easily ignored this disgrace of a book but "Twilight Twinkies" (thank you Persiphone) have to bring it up in my face every 2 questions!.!.!.

but if you really hated the series andthe Twinkies you'd know how annoying it is to read about twilight on this website, whether its from a hater or a lover its just plain annoying

so if you hate it, please, keep it to urself (with a few exceptions of saying something sarcastic to the fangirls every once in a while) and just ignore the questions that burn ur insides!.

once again, i dont care if ur a lover or a hater of the WORST BOOK IN THE WORLD just pleasepleasepleasepleaseplease KEEP IT TO YOURSELF!!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I'm kind of in between!.!.!.!.I have not read the book, but I've been debating whether I should or not!.!.!.!.!.on one hand, I find the vampire stuff fascinating and my friend begs me to read the books!.!.!.but then again, it does seem very overrated and too romantic/happily ever after kind of thing!.!.!.!.!.!.plus when I was looking for the book, I found this review, which I thought was hilarious!.!.!.

Its towards the bottom of the page and by "gaimangirl"Www@QuestionHome@Com

I agree completely!. No one with half a brain would consider them even "readable!." Quite frankly, the previews for the movie nauseate me!. And anyone who thinks they are well written needs to read some REAL writing, such as Shakespeare, Tolkien, or even J!.K!. Rowling!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yep!.
Twilight is a book for people who don't want to think while they read!. It's popular because girls use it as a self insert!. It's poorly written, plotless, pointless garbage with stupid characters and a stupid plot!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

UGH!?! WTH!?! NO! Acutally Twilight is a extremly well written book for all ages from pre-teens to adults!. It is a suspenseful, dramatic, romance!. I personally love it!. So ha!Www@QuestionHome@Com

No, I know plenty of grown women who LOVE the book!. I don't think it was really aimed at anyone, and if it was, Stephenie Meyer has REALLY bad aim!. ^-^Www@QuestionHome@Com

No, I don't believe it's aimed at anyone!.
