Just discovered Twilight . . . . . . . . .

Team lemon I'm so jealous!!!!

We're going to see The Graham Norton Show being filmed. Rob's gonna be there!!!!!!!

TSA FTW!

I'M GOING TO SEE ROBERT PATTINSON ON TUESDAY!!!!!!

Another vote for the TSA! I lurked for the longest time, on and off, and in the meantime slowly got sucked into to daily Robporn googling sessions, to my shame, and twilight fanfiction. It sounds wierd. It is wierd and geeky and unbecoming to a forty-something like myself but a lot of the writing is just amazing and unbelievably addictive. Far, far superior to the source material.

Some of the TSA write too (I won't out them here, that's up to them) and bloody good they are too. It's all about the giggles and the smut but there's some busy ladeez knocking out some fabulous stories as well. And they do love fresh blood !

All in all, marvellous fun and new friends - what's not to like?

YES please come over to TSA! the beauty of it, you see, is you don't have to decide between Edward and Eric- you can have them both! We're totally equally opportunity fangirls, honest :)

I know it can all be a bit daunting because we have been going for 16 months a while, but we will welcome you with open arms, seduce you with excellent Rob pics and point you in the direction of some excellent fanfiction wchih will fuel your addiction while broadening your cliterary horizons :)

on a slightly more serious note I am completely bemused at the fact I'm a twilight fan. I've always been a big reader of serious books, and twilight is, in all honesty, not very good literature. and there are far better vampire sagas out there. But i think Rob himself (I know, humour me, i'm pathetic) put it best when he said in an interview that people just like to do Twilight-related things together. IN my case that's absolutely true, i love the sense of community twilight has created, both here and in the fanfiction world.

saggy My hub doesn't read books either and is an intelligent bloke but doesn't have any imagination so to speak, I can't get my head around it

I loved the series, and want to read True Blood over the summer.

Just post a few times, Edward, we do make an effort to explain the madness if we know people are lurking! You will work it out in no time at all - generally it's just an awful lot of silliness... And smut. Always the smut

i tried the TSA threads a while back and found it really hard to catch up [thick emoticon] think just cause they've been going a long time a lot of stuff people were talking about went straight over my head.

strangly my DH quite likes the movies and would probably sulk if i went without him lol

would obviously never admit that in public though

They are so cheesy, badly written, the message is horrible, and the movies are so lame...

But.... I love them!

(I'm 33)

and EdwardorEricCantDecide - baby cinema, that's how I'm watching this one (by the way DH is so happy he won't be dragged, and I won't have to explain why is really awesome, so win-win)

Seriously, all of you who have found yourselves strangely addicted to Twilight and/or Robert Pattinson, do come on over to the TSA threads where you will find your true home amongst like-minded individuals. We giggle, perv, write our own stories, and generally have a good time. All welcomed, even those who think they might be Team Jacob

I loved them, as did my 10yr old DD. The True Blood books are ace as well.

Obsessed, you say? Come on over to the TSA threads, we will welcome you with open arms!

I can't wait for the next movie, but DC2 is due 4weeks before it comes out I'll be BFing u think I can take baby to cinema in a sling?

Not just fiction, she just isnt a big reader. Very clever, excellent grades, just doesnt read for pleasure. disappointed

25- love them. Waiting for next film in Nov!

do you mean fiction is lost on her?

Nah, DD is not likely to want to read them, she is very academic, but books are lost on her. And dont worry, we discuss EVERYTHING!

Saggyoldclothcatpuss I sympathise with your opinion and your concern re. the messages Twilight sends but please don't stop your DD from reading them... if you ban them, I'm almost certain she WILL read them, she'll just chuck them under the duvet and pretend to be reading something she thinks you'll approve of when she hears your feet on the stairs! If she reads them with your knowledge and (however reluctant) consent then at least you can discuss them with her and explain why you find them objectionable.

hi i'm new here but just seen this thread i'm 29 and have just read all the twilight books, i was totally hooked on them - Team Edward

Lessons from Twilight

I would like to read a version where they all burst into flames and disappear!

you are not alone at all.
The biggest audiences for the books and films fall into two categories

1. girls around 15 yrs old
2. women around 38+ yrs old.

I am also in category 2 - and I did the same, but equally as I became more familiar with the material, became more aware of its limitations.

I would like to read a version where Bella chooses Jacob and life over death.

THEY ARE ABSOLUTE, LOAD OF BADLY WRITTEN, PLOT DEFICIENT, TEDIOUS, DRIVEL!...

Sorry, was I shouting?...
Just about every vampire book I have ever read is better than these. And as for the messages it gives, my DD will NEVER be reading these books! EVER!
