A conversation between two YA librarians (also GIP)

[cedarlibrarian]

cedarlibrarian: Oooh, the Twilight essay collection came in today's mail.
dettiot: [snort] Why are you oooing over that?
cedarlibrarian: Because I'm hoping the essays will be witty and fun* and take the book to task for being crappy.
dettiot: Ummm . . . and what color is the sky in your world?
cedarlibrarian: SPARKLY

I also hope the essay book takes Bella to task for being such a passive/aggressive doormat. (Among other, more writerly things...)

[cedarlibrarian]

A thousand times, YES! It has always amazed me how such an empty character has also managed to be such a textbook Mary Sue.

[dettiot]

:-) A sparkly sky would be nice, wouldn't it?

[abigail89]

Oh, yes, please do share. I want to be vindicated.

These books are a travesty. Sparkly, hot vampire *snorts*

[cedarlibrarian]

No, no, he's a sparkly, COLD vampire. And that makes him more sexy, right? Because as lizzb said, "Why on earth would you ever want to take something to bed with you that wasn't room temperature?"

OMG I meant to tell you (and will offer photo proof on lj later) that the coffeehouse inside the convention centre yesterday had Stephanie Meyer advertising -- on the coffee sleeves! I had to steal one just to prove to myself it existed.

I also vote sociopath!
