Blog 2.

So I should be working on my english paper comparing Maggie Tulliver to Heidi Holland of The Mill on the Floss and The Heidi Chronicles respectivly. But I want a break to talk about something that bothers me.

Twilight does not equate to literature.

It's cute, and it's entertaining...but thats about it.

The characters are incredibly onesided. Bella...christ...really? Can anyone say "author insertion?" If I had the audacity to create a character like her I would be flamed and harrassed until she was killed off. Mary Sue, hello! Not so pretty girl has all the attention and everyone loves her. Shes always in danger, but always saved in the nick of time but the crazy hot vampire.

Vampire...another thing! Sunlight makes campire either A) combust, B) shrivel up and die, or C) die in some other horrible manner. NOT GLITTER, can anyone say deus ex machina?? Come on way to destroy a vampire's one weakness Stephanie Meyer. Bram Stoker would be rolling in his grave and I don't know about Anne Rice. But I have way more respect for her.

And to all you people that told me I was gay and goth because I liked reading about vampires, fuck you. You're reading these candy ass "novels" and youre so fucking cool. Ok...I'll be done, have a nice day. Much Love, Kirsten
