Put the book down, and BACK AWAY...

On the train home this afternoon, there was a girl reading Twilight.

Somehow I managed to restrain myself from ripping the book out of her hands and begging her to read something more productive... like Cosmo.

Isn't it appalling?

And I don't think that review even mentioned the thing where Edward doesn't want to turn Bella into a vampire, because it'll damn her soul to hell (somehow... even though she'll live forever, and Twilight vamps are pretty much unkillable), so he decides that he won't have sex with her until they're married, and that will balance the whole vamping thing out. And Bella completely freaks out at the idea of marrying him - even though she REALLY REALLY wants him to turn her into a vampire so that they can be together for all eternity...

I'm surprised you haven't heard of it - it's been popping up all over the internet lately. Especially because book four is coming out next week.
People have been calling Stephenie Meyer the new J.K.Rowling, weirdly enough.
