E-mail a friendTwilight: A Primer for Adults
Call me curmudgeonly, but I really don't get it. I don't get the current vampire zeitgeist, and I don't get why so many people are so crazy about these Twilight books. Virtually every single publication in existence has had an article about what this whole trend means and, after reading a lot of them, it's still not really clear.
The good news is I'm not alone. At least one other person in the blogosphere sees this for the ridiculous fad that it is. I give you Gabe at Videogum, with this hilarious primer on Twilight. And even better, after you've read it, you won't even have to watch the movies!
