I would like to point out that there have been lots of good reasons as to why Harry Potter is better than Twilight but not a lot on why Twilight is better than Harry Potter.zaidi ya mwaka mmoja uliopita
To be fair, it's all subjective. What's 'better' to one person is 'worse' to another. Personally l think HP is better and I have reasons as to why (most of which are something along the lines of 'Bellatrix is in it.') I think so. But others disagree and I'm sure they have their reasons.zaidi ya mwaka mmoja uliopita
In my opinion, Twilight and Harry Potter are the primary reasons why there is even a young adult genre. They kept the genre alive when non-readers turned into avid readers. For that, they are both equally important, the rest is just a matter of opinion!

Harry Potter is better no contest. The mashabiki are universal, of all different cultures and ages, Twilight is made for teenage girls and that's pretty much as far as the group spans. Harry Potter fans, I have noticed, belong to zaidi then just the Harry Potter fandom, its very mixed, all of us have different books, movies, tv shows,etc. that we enjoy and we all come together through Harry Potter. wewe can't say the same for twilight.

-My intrest in Bellatrix's character got me into it. -Yes and no, at first it actually pushed me away from the fandom and as I made Marafiki with them ,y upendo for the vitabu did increase. -I think HP is better because it's story line is zaidi interesting in my opinion, the characters are better, Draco's hotness isn't discussed on every other page, and our Bella is far far better. I think they can.zaidi ya mwaka mmoja uliopita
1) Snape's character. 2) Yes, being able to discuss the vitabu and finding out that I wasn't the only one who was not particularly enamoured with the main characters and being able to share thought, pictures, fanart, etc with other like minded individuals, has allowed me to be exposed to zaidi facets of the fandom, to delve into and to enjoy my fandom to a greater extent 3) I don't think it's that much better than Twilight, I don't think they are easily compared apart from the fact that they're both YA boooks and are both ndoto vitabu . I read Twilight when I'm in the mood for a light romance with a happy ending and HP when I'm in a slightly darker mood believe it au not as I'm generally zaidi interested in Snape's tragic story that that of the golden trio.zaidi ya mwaka mmoja uliopita
I think Harry Potter is the best because there are already too many vampire upendo stories in the world. I'm getting sick of them. But, if both subjects bore you, maybe read "Alice in Zombieland: Off with their heads" instead. It's a great book about zombies and stuff.

! knew that, but Dracula wasn't really the first vampire. The aversion to the sun started with Nosfaratu (whatever his name is). the writer of that movie changed it to being killed kwa the sun so he caould tiptoe around Stoker's copyrights. Anyways, Dracula wasn't actually weakened kwa the sun, he was weakened kwa daylight hours, even in the dark.zaidi ya mwaka mmoja uliopita
I wasn't saying he was the first vampire, just the first to have an aversion to the sun au daylight au whatever is what I meant. What I meant was that there's nothing inherent about Wanyonya damu that means they are affected kwa the sun in any way; it always annoys me when people call that a 'flaw' in twilight - it's not. And I thought Dracula just Lost his power in the day, so I guess wewe could say he was strengthened kwa the night as much as weakened kwa the day.zaidi ya mwaka mmoja uliopita

What really pissed me off is how Bella got everything she wanted in the end. She was suppose to sacrifice her family, best friend, future children, and sanity (for a couple decades). Instead, she got a "perfect" child, her dad, her best friend, and total control over her lust of blood. Then, we're all excited about the big battle against the Volturi… and it never happened. WTF?!!

@ tsmith120: Having a bit of a temper is not a *noteworthy* flaw. Ginny gets angry when people annoy her, oh wow! That's not a flaw. In fact her temper is not depicted as a bad thing in the books, rather it seems to be used to reienforce the message that Ginny is a strong willed girl who shouldn't be trifled with. His dead loved ones did returned through an implausible way ie the resurrection stone where they then proceeded to talk to him and reassure him they are happy, always with him and are now in fact in a better place. All neatly sorted at the end so he can go on with his perfect life where he gets the job of his dream, the perfect wife, a beautiful large loving family, his wand back, respect, wealth, wisdom, good looks etc, etc. Where in the book does it tell wewe about Umbrige's, the elves', centaurs' and werewolves' fates? Where in the book does it mention what Hermione and Kingsley did? BTW sorry for the tardy response, been away where there's no Internet.zaidi ya mwaka mmoja uliopita
But makes a book great is the moral of the story au the sympathy/love wewe feel toward a charcter. Harry Potter teaches the importance of bravery, upendo and Marafiki while I feel like Twilight teaches wewe that if wewe sacrifice your family and friends, everything will turn out fine and everyone will live happily ever after. Not very realistic, in my opinion.zaidi ya mwaka mmoja uliopita

Lots of reasons. But mainly I think it's because it's immensely maarufu and it's a genre that was enjoyed and appreciated traditionally kwa a smaller section of people - women who liked escapism romance, but all of a sudden became zaidi mainstream. Most people who criticise it IMO don't understand the appeal of the vitabu au the standard "rules" such a book follows. It's a bit like the hysteria there was when role playing games first came to people's attention. RPGs were traditionally enjoyed kwa a small group of generally young boys/teens who liked playing ndoto war-games. When it became a bit zaidi mainstream, the media and most people who didn't understand it went on and on about how it was leading kids into devil worshiping and influencing impressionable children and teens into acts of violence. When in reality it was just a game that provided a bit of escapism fun.zaidi ya mwaka mmoja uliopita
