Rachel-

Oh, man, am I interested in this adaptation? Am I? I’m interested in this for the same reasons I’m interested in the latest Lindsay Lohan drama.

I just want to out myself immediately. I am not a fan of Twilight. I think they’re poorly written, dull manifestations of one woman’s Mary Sue dream that comes right at the END of a decade long vampire obsession in popular culture. Continue reading
