Meyer supposedly copied her series. I read in my local paper the other day that they are getting to the point where the Breaking Dawm film may be canceled.

OMG, humanity might be safe after all, there really is a God!

Of course, MANY vampire-romance novels have a similar plot, so we can't prove anything.

HOWEVER, Meyer will be constantly sued otherwise. 4laugh

I'm torn about that whole sueing thing; I mean, I'd have to actually read both Breaking Dawn and The Nocturne to see if I saw any actual line-for-line plagiarism, and since I'm not going to be doing that...But hell, anyone who can successfully sue Stephenie Meyer will get my Kudos.

But anyway, I myself was at the bookstore the other day, Barnes and Noble. I saw a table with a bunch of books on it that said "SAT/ACT Study Books" or some such thing...

Well, I walk by this thing, my eyes scanning around at the books out of habit, but then I had to double take...

I found, on the pile of SAT/ACT books...Get ready for it... A book about words in Twilight that the Standard testing people chose for the list of vocab for the tests. A book with all the frilly-a**, thesaurus-raping vocab fluff that Meyer uses, in a STUDY book.

Granted I have nothing against these words themselves...BUT ******** TWILIGHT? AUGH AGGREVATION.

I facepalmed. Hard. And stomped off muttering about the whole thing with my Twi-neutral friend following me.
There was another thread about that. It's called "Defining Twilight" or something, right? Sucks. Just read a ******** thesaurus instead!

Oh yeah, Teh_Sheba, I heard about that Twilight SAT thing... ugh, it's sad to know that so many companies are making money off of this stupid book and that fans are gobbling it all down.

Anyway, as much as I hate Twilight, I don't think the author of Nocturne has much of a case... one is about a human girl in love with a "vampire" and it is set in the modern age, and the other is a book about a girl in love with a sorcerer in 15th-century France (the idea sounds better, though!).

Ugh, but I hate how the article included this asskissing quote from a representive from Hachette...

Quote:
“The world of the Twilight Saga and the stories within it are entirely the creation of Ms. Meyer. Her books have been a phenomenal sensation, and perhaps it shouldn't be surprising to hear that other people may seek to ride the coattails of such success.”


Ugh, I can just hear that person puckering up to Meyer's a**. Poor Miss Scott, being accused of riding the coattails of such an abysmal "series"... I may just read her book, out of spite rofl
