I try, I do. I think the hype and the fact that it's fandom takes it so seriously is what makes it worse. Like Harry Potter. It came out and was good. Then it BLEW up even more with the movies. Twilight blew up with the viral campaign iconmakers had no idea they were partaking in by casting French models and teen queens as characters. Videos and art based on text by a housewife (Mormon at that...? Ironic.) Like, I HATE THIS BOOK. I'm not even trying to mask that. I thought I loved it, forced myself to continue and then got a bad book hangover. One that SO does not fade away.
