You've just essentially told us all, "No-one else likes Twilight so I'm gonna follow the in-crowd and be a sheep".
Actually, the series has millions of fans all over the world. There are many who like it. Perhaps you were not aware of this, or you chose to ignore it. I don't know.

I don't like Twilight either outside of the first book, but at least I have the guts to say I like the first book, in all honesty they're good, its the movies that are crap. You haven't read Twilight so your basing your opinions on baseless conjecture.
First of all: The first movie was okay. Second: Baseless conjecture? No, the opinions of millions of people. The fact that an overwhelming majority of its fanbase are teenage girls is kind of an indicator, really. Are only teenage girls into Shakespeare, Proust, or Dostoyevsky (spelling)? No. And since I've seen the movie, it's not that baseless.
And "in all honesty?" I'm fed up with people thinking controversial opinions are more sincere. By the way: You say that in all honesty they're good. But you also say that apart from the first one you don't like them. Well, are they good or not? Make up your mind, please.

Do yourself a favour, get a life and get opinion of your own. Just because you don't have one yet doesn't give you the right to be peer pressure's *****.
I do have an opinion of my own. It's no less of an opinion of my own just because a lot of peole share it. And please, don't call me a *****. It's not polite.

Your just trying to be another little sheep following the popular belief of the "Cool Kids".
No. Having a love for classic literature, I'm trying to figure out why people like this.
And by the way, it's "you're just trying", not "your just trying."
And while I'm at it:
""Hey, I'm sorry you had to come to this, Jacob," I apologized. "At any rate, you get your parts, right?""
Meyer feels the need to point out that the words "I'm sorry" are an apology. I just flipped the book open at random yesterday, and immediately found this line. Of course, it could be that everything else is better, but you can't say that this is good writing.
