Twilight by Stephenie Meyer
Review by Jonathan Bacon
“About these three things I was absolutely positive.” First, this is a story of a young, completely normal girl. Second, she is somehow the most sought after human by those with tainted blood. Third, for some reason vampires now glitter in the sunlight.
This book, and the series that it belongs to, has quickly become one the most popular book series since the Harry Potter series. When I was told by countless people about how great this book was, I felt obligated to read it. I should have known better considering the fact that some of those who were big fans of the book told me to skip the first five chapters because they were “pointless and boring.” Now that I have finished the book, I can truthfully say that the rest of the 24 chapters are equally uninteresting.
For any true fans of vampires and the undead, this book can only be described as a disgrace to all that is unholy. The vampire stories of old set the foundation for all that we have been taught about vampires. One key point is that they do not go out during the day because the sunlight will literally toast the skin off of their body and destroy every part of them, thus giving them a “final death.” Twilight twists this well known fact about vampires to say that they just don’t like going outside because it makes them looks funny. Think of it like this, if a vampire in the Twilight series goes outside on a bright, sunny day, all it does is make them look “sparkly.” One huge problem with the sparkling is that the book does not give an adequate description of what kind of sparkle it is. Do they twinkle like a bright star on a clear night, or do they just look like a high school girl who pours glittery makeup on themselves right before prom? I personally like to think of them as looking like a vat of glitter glue has been poured all over their body. What we can be sure about is that sparkling in the sun does not hurt anything but their self esteem. The only reason they avoid it because it makes them look so stupid.
