 Twilight has werewolves with exploding clothes?  Seriously?

the_red_shoes  has an entertaining, Twilight inspired list of things books written by her will not have here.

Ok, this exploding clothing thing:  do they just rip when he transforms (which is, you know, understandable) or do they literally explode?  MY INQUIRING MIND MUST KNOW!

Don't see why you should if you don't want to.

I admit, I really don't ge the "able to judge what kind of person someone is by a book" thing.

i meant, everybody i know is talking about that book, good and bad, and i'm going to have to read it to figure out what they're talking about.

and you can totally tell a whole lot about a person by the kind of books they read (and don't read). i know by looking that if someone lists The Notebook as her favorite book of all time, that we probably don't have a whole lot in common. It's possible, but not probable. Everyone I know that LURRRVES Twilight, and isn't capable of seeing the snarkability of it, is likewise someone I probably wouldn't have much in common with. However, someone who reads Twilight and loves it precisely because it is hardcore WHOAsparklyVampires and they love it because it is bad (or because of what it potentially could have been--this is how i am with LKH), then yeah.

It's not a judgment on the person as being good or bad, really. Just based on years of experience as a bookshelf inspector, I know that if someone read and loved Nicholas Sparks, then I should probably steer the conversation away from literature/fiction. Because they won't understand my hardcore passion for post-apocalyptic books (that do not include the Left Behind series). but that's just my .02.
