Yep, I'm doing one of these for each of them. If I have to be inexplicably obsessed with getting through this crap, you have to suffer too.

( I still watch Grey's Anatomy, and I have NO idea why...is this really a surprise? )

twilight, books

It's late, so I'll post in the morning, but genius!

"Good GOD, how is it possible that she is turning 18 and is even more bratty than she was in the last book? I am only a few pages in and I want her to die, horribly. It's her birthday and she's all angry and emo because now she's older than Edward and will only keep getting older and he (being the unreasonable tyrant he is) refuses to take her humanity ( ... )

That actually had me giggling out loud on an NYC train. Bella needs a vocabulary lesson, or a clue-bat. Seriously, for a girl who is a "genius" in English, she's so dense in simple conversations.Ahahahah, first of all, I'm glad I'm not the only one. I was reading Twilight and laughing my ass off on NYC buses. Once I was doubled over laughing at the Columbus and 79th bus stop and people were looking at me like I was out of my mind ( ... )

I was on the F train, actually snorting. People glared at me as I passed 34th street. But it’s SMeyers, we’re cynical New Yorkers, we need to snicker ( ... )

"she shows up in Forks and has an instant clique and all the guys (including a male teacher according to SMeyer) have an instant hard-on for her"

Wait, wait, wait, WHAT?! TEACHERS have a thing for this brat?! Can I have a link where it says that, please? (It's not that I don't believe you, it's just that I have to see this horror with my own eyes).

That mind-scarring travesty-of-Mary-Suedom aside, this was a hilarious and accurate review, and I will be looking for your Twilight one.

Crap. I'm trying to remember where I read that, it was awhile ago. I'll keep looking. I definitely didn't make that up!

Thanks! My Twilight review is below, and Eclipse will come in a few days once I wade through it, hah. I just started it.

I can't wait for your review of Breaking Dawn.

buttercup31 December 29 2008, 01:06:05 UTC

Hahaha, I'm both excited and scared for Breaking Dawn. A lot of funny, but a lot of fail.

It has the absolute worst character name ever in the history of all literature.

And a whole lot of themes I disagree with.

buttercup31 December 29 2008, 06:36:12 UTC

Oh, the kid's name? Yeah, WTF? Just awful.

Ugh, themes worse than the other three books?? Argh. I just finished Eclipse. Freaking awful. I'm working on the review now.

Heh, well, I don't know, I think I'm willing to give her a pass on using Caius just because it has to be kind of hard to come up with a three thousand-year-old name. That Gianna thing, while very much an Italian name, sounds like more than a coincidence.

Oh, no, I don't mean about Volterra itself. She's not THAT creative. I mean the vampire subculture and the Volturi. It could have been done SO much better, and I would have loved to have seen what that would have been like in capable hands, but I'm still surprised she came up with it.
