I used to be a die-hard Twilight fan. (see my username. Damn I wish I'd chosen ANYTHING else sometimes.)
I still like the book in small doses now, and I even write fanfiction for it, but now I've looked critically at SMeyer's characters, and I think I realize what people are talking about when they say Bella cigno is a Mary Sue.
As a person who has seen it from both sides, I'd like to say that maybe Twilight fan didn't see Bella like that to begin with because she has so many "flaws".
I'm not really a mega-supporter of Bella's neediness. And I even, admittedly, wonder why she took Edward back after New Moon. Normal people with lives and better things to do would say, "Hell no am I taking te back. te left me crying in a forest, and te think I'll just come running back to you? te wanna commit suicide, go right ahead while I get the popcorn."
I still like Twilight. But maybe Bella cigno was kind of 2-Dimensional.

I came across the site 'My life is average' (link) where people send in random Citazioni such as 'Today, my friend and I bought cake mix at the store. The cashier jokingly told us to bring him back some cake. We did. MLIA."
I curiously searched Edward Cullen and some pretty much hilarious results came up!
"Today, my 12-year-old Twilight obsessed little sister told me she wanted a life sized picture of Edward Cullen to put up on her wall. Since she's always telling me how much better Twilight is than Harry Potter, I decided to get her a life sized picture of Cedric Diggory instead. MLIA"
Not the funniest one there, but i've seen some that have made me literally crease. I would recommend looking some up if te want a good laugh and hate the hype surrounding Twilight! :)

Well i read twilight saga and i got confused I was thinking of either smashing my head with the book o the bacheca i mean come on who the f*** makes Vampiri#From Dracula to Buffy... and all creatures of the night in between. sparkle! i mean unless te want to give the image that there gay but there daring the oppisite sex.
Moving on anyway i have to compare Harry Potter Series vs. Twilight Saga Harry potter wins major. becuase twilight is just SO predictiable i mean common harry potter makes te want to stay at the end of your chair becuase its awesome
any way twilight is an OK book and the twilight movie i have to say it suks. the libri are alright im just hoping that MIdnight sun is a million times better and also i know your gonna ask what team are te on im just gonna say I really dont care its not real so why even bother but if i was a Twihard i would choose Team Buffy becuase i want those cullens except ALICE<CARSILE<AND ESME to be killed for good i mean where ta hell id buffy when te nees her
i hope te see my point PEACE
