"What would you define as literature?

Basically, it's too complex to identify literature by the literary value of works. It'd probably take a long analysis, so let's just stick with the basic identification of literature as serving a purpose, a beneficial purpose at that.

While I'm a Harry Potter fan, I do not declare myself a pure Twilight hater, no.

However, I do have reservations about the novel and its subsequent episodes.

While I concede that Twilight has a whole lot of romance and fantasy that engages its readers, it doesn't go any deeper than that. What goes deeper than Edward and Bella's [if those are their names] undying love for each other, and the sacrifices they make? I'm basing my contextual reference mainly from the skeletal plot of the movie, so I don't steer off in the wrong direction. Let me put it this way, to quote aptly from a contributor, "Twilight is just like Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley revolving about their love and passion throughout all seven books of the series." I definitely agree with that, because that's probably as deep as Twilight can go. Stephanie/Stephenie Mayer/Meyer[however you spell it] is trying too hard to turn this into another saga that will reign the world of fiction. The theme of romance, sadly, is observed as a pivotal point of attraction mainly for young girls. Of course, I do not deny that both sexes are mesmerized by the novel, possibly readers of all ages, but it ultimately revolves around girls swooning over Edward Cullen aka Robert Pattinson. Let's be realistic, in which of fantasy novels that have been written throughout the decades, portrayed a vampire as a sparkling gem in sunlight? Sure, it removes all negative connotations and buffers the image of a vampire, but it doesn't prove realistic. The very cliched idea of vampires being bloodthirsty hounds is what keeps myths and legends going; the very horrifying element of their beastly nature keeps the suspense alive in all believers. The distortion of such an image could wind up distorting the social view of vampires. What happens when children start to think that being, knowing, meeting, or any form of contact or communication with a vampire is fine? Folklores and legends would then cease to serve their job of steering the morality of the young, because the object of educating them is painted to be positively desirable, which brings me to my next point. I personally do not wish to compare this directly to Harry Potter, because I don't see a need to. The media has definitely hyped the fans of both Twilight and Harry Potter by openly drawing parallels between the two, which is pretty much ridiculous. I daresay Harry Potter was meant to target a young audience, but it somehow captured the attention of people of all ages, but because of the exquisitely weaved plot and the thoughtful use of literary devices in the series throughout all seven novels, it deserves to be called a piece of literature to some extent, even if one may wish to consider it juvenile literature. Subjectively, Twilight comprises mostly of descriptive writing, how Bella fell in love with Edward, how Edward protects her, how she gives birth to demon-children. Mindless imbeciles who are active, hardcore Twilight fans may argue by saying things like "you're jealous that you can't find a relationship like theirs" or perhaps "you have no one to care for you like Jacob does for Bella, get over it." I've seen these tags on forums, and let me just say, it is plain stupid. Firstly, if you really perceive that kind of relationship to actually last in reality, go ahead, but don't say we didn't warn you. Secondly, you're just so engrossed in the novels that you fail to see the true differences in the two sagas, and hence wind up comparing like everyone else, and speaking only for Twilight, not from an objective view. Frankly, my stand lies with the notion that both novels serve their own purpose, I'm just more of a Harry Potter fan than Twilight. Here's a gentle reminder: Fairytales do not exist. They are created for your entertainment. The same way which Harry Potter remains fictional, Twilight will too. So quit paying patronage and self-absorbing shrines to the stars of the movie, because they are fictional in the characters they play too. On a side note, it is debatable that part of the fanbase arose from the dashing adonis Robert Pattinson along with charismatic Kristen Stewart. Oh sure, there's definitely no problem in that, but like I mentioned, I'm discussing the two sagas here in terms of the writing itself, so I won't explain on this further.

This paragraph is key because I'm weighing the implications of the two novels. I'm going to begin drawing some comparison, because it will reflect why I prefer Harry Potter over Twilight. Firstly, Twilight may be fascinating due to unfamiliar elements being introduced. The acts of tearing one apart, barbarianism and sadistic acts are being observed in which the way fans react to opinions of others. It may come across as shocking, but did you know that people who are not avid fans of Twilight are being beaten and trashed around because they do not support Twilight? Yes, read this, and digest this fact. We haven't seen anti-Twilight fans beat Twilight followers until it has to come to a situation where a forum is conducted specially for this issue. Unfortunately, things are not mutual. I refer to The Twihard Attack Directory, [please click on link to view attacks]. Brutal, and not to mention heartless cruelty, in response to anti-Twilight fans. Who is to argue that these "protectors" are defending anything else when they are clearly invading non-Twilight supporters on all levels of life? Of course, I offer the benefit of doubt that this was definitely unintentional, thus I will not continue harping on this topic.

Let me move on to how Twilight fans are divided amongst themselves. While followers and avid readers of a saga are supposedly a united group, respecting the work of novels and appreciating the art of writing, I see Twilight fans being divided into Team Edward and Team Jacob. Now what is all that about? When one offers appreciation for a novel and its plot, one does not argue or segregate from other people who are their fellowmen. Why the need to split into two teams when both characters are formed from the same saga? Again, with a subjective viewpoint, I do not see Harry Potter fans arguing against nor dividing themselves so distinctly over being a Dark Arts follower or a part of Dumbledore's Army. Ultimately, whichever side they are on, they are one united body, supporting the works of J.K. Rowling and her ingenuity in tying the entire story together. Thus, it would be rational in my perspective to argue that there is no reasonable need to have two divided bodies supporting the same saga, because therein lies the irony itself, two differences forming a similar interest. How logical, then, can it be that Twilight allows for deeper appreciation and understanding when there are clearly lines of separation in the developments of characters itself on a face-value level? I end my point here.

Lastly, I just want to state that, although I remain a loyal Harry Potter fan, I do not dislike nor like Twilight in any way. I hold neutral opinions to it, because afterall, the fantastical and romantic elements of the plot serves to fulfil the unattainable in reality. In this sense, Twilight allows for contentment of what we cannot achieve. I repeat my point though, that despite the weighings of both novels, I would stick by Harry Potter, because personally, it holds more meaning and significance. After all, this is not a comparison, it is just my subjective commentary, and everyone is entitled to their preferences, which is why I respect my friends who adore Twilight, because I know that they have their own reasons for liking the saga.

End.

Harry Potter for the win. "

is that how you describe love, too?
