You got a point there, that is true. :-) The biting part to feed, like vampires does (thank you gawd SMeyers kept that at least), is a very erotic thing. :-)

But I think one of the things that made these books so popular is that it is the insignificant (in her mind) girl that gets the perfect boy/man that everyone wants and he only gives attention to her. Every girls dream that. Add a shitload of angst (and I do mean shitload), vampires and vamp-erotica and there you go.

spicehobbit thinks reading these is bad for my blood-pressure... X-D You should have heard us last night after we saw the movie (that is equally bad) and bashed the shit out of Twilight while getting insanely drunk! X-D
