        Me too, buddy. Me too.

        I read them alongside a friend and met up for coffee to discuss after; we devoured them as they came out and about ¾ of the way through the final book we both just said “What the fuck are we reading?”

        Stephanie Meyer knows how to make you turn pages.

      What’s the problem with that? I would assume most people of tween/teen reading age did in the time they were popular. They were a phenomenon.

      Casually outing yourself as hating things teenage girls like.

          Then no need to feel embarrassed about something you might have enjoyed at the time! :)

          We’re allowed to like what we like, especially as kids. Give your younger self a break lol

      Sure why not. There is a ton of interesting horror and fantasy material hidden under the trashy paperback romance.
