Starting something you couldn't finish
Finnbar says: I used to know a guy who tattooed LOVE across his left knuckles, but didn't tattoo HATE on the other knuckles because he was right-handed and realised he couldn't finish. Ever run out of skills or inspiration halfway through a job?

Unfortunately
This is making me WANT to read it, just so I can find out how bad it really is. It's like some kind of literary car-crash, with the trilogy being a multiple-car pile-up in the Fantasy/Sci-Fi section of Waterstones... okay, so that analogy was a bit shit, but still.
Bring me the eye-bleach!

It's painful
Really, really painful. I read just enough to confirm the bit about vampires being sparkly, and it only took a few paragraphs of the writer's clunky, overwrought, ridiculously juvenile words-strung-together (I hesitate to call it 'writing') to make me wish I could suffer temporary short-term memory loss and forget the whole thing. As someone who greatly enjoys most forms of so-bad-they're-good entertainment, I find those books are just ordinary bad.
