Her books are all bestsellers. Doesn't she have to be doing something right? Mike C. She's a successful writer, therefore a target. We all wish we could be so horrible. My issue with Meyer isn't her writing, but her poor, stereotypical female MC - always a victim, always needing a guy to rescue her. Far better in that respect is The Hunger Games - strong, proactive female role model. Oh, I see that could be a problem for some people. I enjoy those books, but I'd rather write about independent girls or girls learning to be independent.

There is hope for my genre, then. I think that there are just a lot of people who dislike her stories because for whatever reason they're not aimed at adult men. As I understand it, Stephenie Meyer isn't particularly mocked for being a bad writer, like other famous authors Dan Brown , so much as people tend to think her content is superfluous and without substance and merit.

I've personally not read much of Stephenie Meyer's work, simply because I was too old to read her stories when they came out, and had the wrong set of genitalia. I skipped that stage. I think it was because I was so into Warhammer yes, those nerdy little figurines as a kid, and went strait to Military Sci-Fi. In fact, from ages I hardly read anything else. Stories like that have always irritated the alien. Every sentence is choppy, the rhythm is unexpected and it flows as smoothly as Niagara Falls.

Unfortunately, there is no sudden end, like at Niagara Falls, and each book is way too long to suffer through, causing horrible literary agony. But as many writers say and I being one of them, advanced vocabulary in bad writing will only make the rest worse and more annoying.

An example of this: James Patterson. And, yes, I have read all the books.
