Stephenie Meyer


I’m sure a lot of you guys have read at least one of Meyer’s books.
She was the one that got me reading, Twilight had me hooked, and I even ditched a test to be able to continue to read the book. Yeah, I was obsessed.

And not only have her books touched my heart, but millions of other hearts around the world.
Every book she has written so far has been made into a movie, and the movies always become the hype of the year. “Stephenie Meyer” and “twilight” is the only thing people have in their mouth’s these days, and especially now when The Host movie was released. I personally liked the Host (book) better than Twilight.

She got the idea to write twilight from a dream. And that dream got her earning millions of dollars every year.
She became really big after the first Twilight movie that came out in November 21th 2008.
And it was during that time she put down the pen. She released her last book in May that year.

I’m grateful that she wrote five amazing books but I’m at the same time very disappointed.

Why does fame do this to great authors? I don’t care what people have to say about her writing, it might not be the best, but her way of telling a story is. The Host had me hooked in place for days, I loved the alien world, and Wanda/ Melanie, and that cliffhanger I remember killed me.

But never would I have imagined that that cliffhanger was it. The end.

Every time someone ask her about It she gives the same male answer “I’m busy with the movies” and I even heard her say in an interview “I’m so busy with my dress that I’m going to wear on the movie awards” WHAT THE ACTUAL DUCK?

Why would someone quit writing, why would someone disappoint readers like that? If she Is tired of writing, if she doesn’t find any joy in it anymore, say so, I can accept that, we are all humans, but why LIE?
No, everyday that goes by without a new book she loses some respect me.

And now that all her books are made into movies, what is she going to do? No excuse anymore

Cassandra Clare, international bestseller.

Cassandra Clare. a terrfic author that knows what she is doing. her most famous book, city of bones. It takes place in a world with mundanies *humans*, werewolfes, vampires, faeries, shandowhunters ect. and to make all that work without going all crazy you have to be really good. a lot of author's when they try out something like that they fail, and if they even succeed a bit the book turns out OK. But Cassandra Clare is magical when it comes to her Writing. She writes in such a detailed way that holds you in Place, her way of telling a story is marvelous. even thou even she have had her up's and down when It comes to her books she is at most time awesome

So what is is that disturb be so much with her?

the fact that she doesn't seem to be able to write a book that doesn't take Place in the shadowhunter World.
she have the mortal intstrument series and the infernal devices series and they both take Place in the same World just on different eras. and NOW she is working on ANOTHER book that will *gasp* take Place in the shadowhunter World too!

I don't get why, why does she do this!?
okey Im pretty sure i know why, she is afraid that that is all she can do, and that that is all she can sell, but honestly, i would by her Picture book if she ever wrote one.

author's take risk's they take chances they are not afraid, but then we have Cassandra Clare, working against it all!
I like the things she have written so far, and I know that I will like her new series, but one can only be so good for a period of time, soon even her most loyal fans will disappear.

I know she can do better, she is an artist in what she is doing, and she would gain so much more respect from me if she just tried her boundaries.

random fact: did you know that City of Bones was a fan fic of harry potter at first?

with that im off to Another city.
