Twilight Series Question

Who here has read the books, because judging by some people's answers and questions, it doesn't seem like some people have...

This is an honest question. I'm very curious. The books were here since 2004. The movies were here since 2008. The books >>>>>>>>>>>> the movies. The books = the original source. If you haven't read the books and have only seen the movies, I urge you to read the books :) They are better than the movies. The characters are better developed and not tainted by typical Hollywood. They movies aren't exactly portraying the books properly. And if you don't usually read? Well, they're a really fast read :) If you like the movies as much as you do, I'm sure you'll be just as captivated while you read the books :)

I really recommend you read them. I'm sure you'll like them :) Plus, you get to use your own imagination to how everything looks :) You get to decide who Bella looks like, or who Edward looks like (not that Kristen or Rob aren't doing a great job). You make the rules, you take the reigns, you imagine. :)

So who has read the books? How did you become a fan? When did you become a fan? Why are you a fan?

Amen sista! (sorry, I couldn't help it.) I have been thinking about this for a while now.

I read the books in August 2008, just after the release of Breaking Dawn. I was only vaguely aware that there was even going to be a movie. I had a friend who was completely obsessed. She talked about it endlessly and I usually just tuned her out. Then I met another friend who liked it, and then a few more. And then when Breaking Dawn released, I went to one of those midnight parties with my friend because it sounded fun. I had a great time, someone even got proposed to, but I didn't really understand what the big deal was. So just a few days after that, I finally decided to give the books a chance, and I've been hooked ever since. I read non-stop for almost five days, and once I finished them all, I went online to milk the internet for all the info I could get, which is when I really became aware of the movie. I know that when I read the books, the movie was right around the corner, but I was lucky because I still read before the movie craze began. It's tough for me to say why I'm a fan, but it's mostly just because I love these books, and I care about the characters and the story. They were the first books that drew me in the way they did. They made me happy when times were tough. I just love these books. And yeah, the books >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> the movies. I do love the movies, even though I know they aren't exactly cinematic art, I love them. But the books are still a million times better, and will always hold a special place in my heart.

I read the books before I watched the movies. The books(and my Edward-obsessed bff) got me interested in the movies. But it was more the books that made me watch the movies.So yea I read the books.

of course i read the books before and then watched the movies and i have to say that yes the books are better than movies like always in my opinion anyway in this case(strange! generally isn't like this for me) i also love the movies also because i really like the actors and actress who are acting this movies.Anyway my favourite character is Rosalie and one of my favourite actress(Nikki Reed) play this role in the movies so... it's a perfect combination ;)

I read the Books right after I saw Twilight. I saw Twilight the day it came out on DVD,so the day after that. I finished it in a day and a half then imediatly got the next books. So,I read the series pretty fast and read them each like 20 times and counting

I read them a couple months after Breaking Dawn came out. I didn't even know they were going to become movies. I'd fallen in love with the books. I was already a Team Switzerland from the books and the movies won't change that.
Does it bother anyone else how people are team Edward in the books then the movie makes them like Jacob more?

THANK YOU!!! I have been telling EVERYONE that... People are just so lazy. Theyd rather watch the movie, than sit down and read. Ugh. People are missing out on SO much when they skip the books.
