Age: 16
Country United States
Twilighter since? November 27,2008

I didn’t catch on right away, I tried reading Twilight earleiar and I got bored so I didn’t finish it. But then I started seeing trailers for the movie and I was like “that looks really good I need to read the book.” I wanted to read the book before I saw the movie but it was always checked out at the library. I was staying with my aunt for Thanksgiving when my cousin and his girlfriend asked me which movie I’d rather see,Twilight or Bolt, immediatley I said Twilight-I was the deciding factor-anyways after the movie I was on the computer searching everything twilight, annoyed my cousin to no end. after that I finally got my hands on the book and I read them faster than Ive ever read before I was addicted. Ican’t go a day without thinking about twilight and somehow just about everything I hear I can realate back to Twilight, I’ve also have been annoying my mom since Novemrber about it. Ive read the books six times and for some reason the sixth was way more emotionall than the others-with new moon I was always sad but didn’t cry, 6th read I cried,and I have never been able to absoulutly love jacob but I don’t hate him either. the 6th read-I cried when he left at the end of eclipse. If anything my love for twilight is becoming stronger and stronger.

I think that people just become fans because they want to be part of the craze. She even said that she was bored in reading Twilight when she tried to the first time and them started and became a fan right after the movie. She needed the movie trailer to get her attention. They should look for people that are like hardcore fans that started way before the movie, like people that camped out for the books. Congrats to the FOTW. Im not trying to say u dont deserve it but I just think that they should pick people who have dedicated their life to Twilight or at least people that have read the book when they first came out.

Congrats Raven! Cool story!
To everyone who says you have to read the book before you heard of the movie to be a true fan: Does it really matter? Can’t you just be happy for Stephenie Meyer’s success? Whether you read the book before or after a movie if you really enjoy that book isnt that all that matters?
Congratulations Raven I’m glad you’re the FOTW.

I agree with Sofia in terms that the real fans are the ones that read it before the movie and not just ’cause they wanted to be part of the craze. However, I disagree that you have to dedicate your life to it. It’s just a book, sure it’s a GREAT book but you can have your own life to. You can be an original fan without being obssessive.
