I've seen the argument that Meyer is being subversive or ... I don't know...that some how her ignorance of the genre is the same as what Joss was doing with Buffy.
She's not, she's just willfully ignorant on the subject and I don't want to read that....unless I take that class on vampire literature at the community college and I'm forced to.
What I find so weird about Meyer is that most of the authors I know (generally from here) love to investigate and research whatever they are writing. It seems weird to just start writing.

And yet, in her case, lucrative.
Valid point. I almost want to read out of curiosity but won't.

I read the first 100 pages of the first one before I gave up. I did find them hysterically funny, although I don't think that was the intent.
I ran across someone who was reading Twilight, doing a kind of read and snark/discetion of the book. But I forgot to bookmark it and now I don't know how to find it.

Someone besides Mark, you mean?
Maybe Cleolinda?
askye,
cleolinda's summary of the final book is EPIC. Just epic.
