Can't sleep, Edward will dazzle me!

[yubsie]

I read the sparkling scene of Twilight last night.

Oh. My. God.

I had heard about it, but it did not prepare me. The words sparkled, diamond, scintillating, incandescent and glittered all in a single paragraph!

Somewhere, a thesaurus is having a long chat with its therapist.

I tried to read it out to Ryan but I kept losing it.

SPARKLES!

Ugh. Frankly, I am more than a little frightened to ever read that book cover-to-cover.

Also, Dr. Horrible ♥!

[yubsie]

I'm only reading it because one of my friends hooked me up with a PDF. Though last night I couldn't continue after the sparkling. :p

Dr Horrible is wonderful. :p

Dude, hook a sister up. I've been reading so much Twilight snark lately it's not even funy okay, yeah, it's ALWAYS funny. But it's making me want in on the crazy and I refuse to pay money for that crap, so... yeah. PDF plz?

[yubsie]

The PDF is wonderful because you can read the lulz without having to give the crazy lady any money.

Have a terrible book

OH GOD, THE PREFACE.

You I love. <3 I feel much less bad about the lame that is my novel now.

[yubsie]

It's really comforting for that. :p

[chibifrieza.livejournal.com]

It. It reads like fanfic.

It reads like a MARY SUE.

HELP. The one turn of phrase I really liked (about the way her truck is built - the leaving-a-foreign-car-in-pieces-without-sustaining-any-damage thing) was ruined by mixed tense. Only one chapter, and I'm already in pain. ~_~

[yubsie]

And it only gets WORSE. :p

I was going to thank you for posting the pdf so I could yoink it, but when I started reading I developed a need to MST it, or risk going insane. :P

I apologise for ever thinking it "couldn't be that bad", and believing that I had no room to speak because I read Holly Black. >>;

[yubsie]

Oh honey, don't you know Twilight means never having to say you're kidding? :p

MSTing is most necessary. Ask Tess and Sunny. I only read when they're available to receive commentary. :p

I told you, dude. The book is just... something else.

[yubsie]

It just... it just... HOW? WHY?

[seryan.livejournal.com]

I keep hearing about this book. Vampire fantasy aimed at teeny boppers, right? I'm tempted to try it, just to see how very very awful it is.

[seryan.livejournal.com]

Huh. Looks like I don't have to. (http://rinkworks.com/bookaminute/b/meyer.twilight.shtml)

[yubsie]

That's about the gist of it. I have a PDF should you ever take leave of your senses. :p

[seryan.livejournal.com]

I'm tempted. The way you can be tempted by crash dieting before remembering what a bad idea it is.

Someone on my flist has a picture of Mr. Darcy that says "Darcy Doesn't Sparkle." Which is what I thought of when I saw your sparkling Edward headline.

[yubsie]

Mr Darcy does indeed NOT sparkle. :p

Every word that descibes Edward's beauty disturbs me.

My brother is called Edward... not the commonest name in the world. :\
