Sort of how people judge Twilight.

except the twilight books actually are bad. have you read them? Stephanie meyer makes elementary grammatical mistakes in her writing..

They're really not. And I'm not sure if you noticed, but most books/stories have grammatical mistakes. You can't judge if a book is good or not by how well the author's grammar is, that's just arrogance.

Actually you can mike. That's exactly what you should be judging it by. Authors should have well developed grammar. thats like saying you can't judge a musician by how well he plays his instrument

You really can't...1) Books and music are completely different. Music you HEAR, a book you read how the author wanted you to read it. 2) The English language is always changing; how we talk today could be seen as childish say, like 100 years ago.

couldn't have said it better myself, nameless friend. mike, your statement was just plain ignorance.

Yes, totally. Learn the definition of ignorance before you use a big boy word, though.

I agree with you. The books ARE good. They do have grammatical mistakes, which are annoying, but I think you can over look them if the plot is good (which it is). You really get ripped into for talking about Twilight on this site. :S

The only thing the Twilight books have over the movies is that you don't have Robert Pattinson staring you down like a pedophile. You, Mike? You think that grammar doesn't matter? You and all your twihard friends make me weep for the future of literature.

exactly!

You're very sad. It does matter, but when there is tiny mistakes, who cares? You see it by authors all the time. They all make mistakes.

I don't really think Stephanie Meyer has bad grammar. I think P.C. Cast and Kristine Cast does (the authors of the House of Night series). GO JACOB lol!!

Really people. The twilight books are kind of freaky. Harry Potter has better plot, a better writer and it isn't aimed at giggly teenage girls. Take that twi-hards.

lets not go further into the twilight vs. HP battle shall we?

Twilight isn't aimed at teenage girls. I'd almost rather they didn't like it, it would make it much more enjoyable for me and all the other normal people who read it and don't obsess over it.
