I've never read Twilight, I just looked up something about JK Rowling and Stephenie Meyer and this came up, so now I obviously must comment.

I have read her writing, though. I read "the Host" which is a much more interesting story to me than Twilight. I've heard many people say that her writing is better in it than in Twilight, so she probably improved. But if her writing was "improved" in The Host, then, it may have been a little below average in the Twilight Saga. The plot was intruiging, and she could have done SO much more with the idea than just a dumb romance that isn't all that romantic, but nooo she chose the romance genre. Her writing is a bit...flat. She definitely manages to keep your attention with dialogue, but other than that and the plot, her writing doesn't do much for me.

JK Rowling is different. I've read Harry Potter at least three times, and every time I read it, I notice another little something that adds to the depth. It's timeless. Twilight, though...It seems like something that was a fad for a while, and now no one cares. But EVERYONE loves Harry Potter. Everyone knows what it is. People are still reading it. People are still really into it.

Her style is amazing, and has a sort of charm to it. She weaves words together in such a way that makes each sentence and paragraph and page as enchanting as the story. The messages in the story are so much better than what I've seen in Twilight and The Host. The female characters aren't just there for romance, they have depth, same with the male characters. Their personalities are all made unique and relatable.

So, yeah, that's my two cents.
