A girl with no personality (and no specific appearance) falls in love with a lovesick 200-or-so year old vamp who sparkles and doesn't have sex after marriage. A werewolf and a vamp then fight over her for 4 books. :P Also, read the Southern Vampire Mysteries books. They were written before the Twilight saga, and you can see where Meyer got all her ideas from :P

Harry Potter is soooooo much better than Twilight!!! Harry Potter should be at the very top of the list because it clearly passes Twilight. I find Harry Potter to be so much more captivating than twilight. Harry Potter just has a better storyline and is better written because JK Rowling is a better author than Stephenie Meyer. Sorry thats just my opinion :)

Come help me with my list of Feminist Young-Adult books! http://www.goodreads.com/list/show/62...

Are you kidding me?
The movies are soo.. dark and stiff and.. I can't describe it but the books are actually funny and the characters are ALOT better in the books

Tw!l!ght?? Seriously?? I am HP ALL THE WAY! I don't even get why anyone would vote for any of those. JKR is such a better writer!! I'd read her books any day, but not Tw!l!ght.

Don't say sorry. Every last bit of that was true....

wow that is weird the books are soooooooooooooo muchhhhhhh better than the movies!!! i mean the movies arent bad they r pretty good for a movie of harry potter. But the books...idk they hav a lot of life in them and a lot more personality that none of the actors in the movie rele can portray, i think the books are more magical than the movies

hahha yeaa i shouldnt say sorry idk y i did.....cuz its blatantly clear that HARRY POTTERS BETTER!! :D

I need to sneeze but I can't. My nose is so puffy now.

...Um, that was random. Loved the Book Thief!

why iz Twilight the best YA book at the same time the worst book of all time???

Oh, my poor eyes. Twilight, for God's sake. FUCKING TWILIGHT!

The reason "Twilight" is so enjoyable...is because Bella is created with so little description, the reader can easily replace themselves in her role, and Edward is created as the perfect, flawless guy that every girl wants. Now you've got fan girls gushing over it because there's a perfect immortal guy who apparently has no desire to do anything but dote over Bella. It sickens me. Here's a great description of Twilight in my opinion: http://theoatmeal.com/story/twilight

Twilight should not be at the top of this list...

WAVING AT THE MOON a post-apocalyptic young adult story now released with Eternal Press and Amazon paperback http://www.amazon.com/Waving-At-Moon-...

I'm with Ivory on that

twilight? I thought this was supposed to be "young adult" section! all i can see is children's books and teen's books.

My favourite book in the whole wide world is the HUNGER GAMES!!!!! Best book(s) ever!! Absolutely amazingly awesome!!!!! I am betting it will become the new 'Twilight' as they are being made into movies!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SOOOO EXCITED!!!! :) BTW Im team Peeta all the way!!

Christina wrote: "I can't believe Twilight has more votes than Harry Potter. That is just wrong."

I'm confused as well... what is wrong with people these days? It's not like twilight is a horrible book.. I mean it's actually OK, But Harry is just sooooo mucchhh better!

There're used to be so many. i wonder where they all wnet.

HP is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!! The Hunger Games are really great too.

Are you daft? I mean, seriously. What exactly makes Twilight better than Harry Potter.. Oh and, ..."

I agree, Harry Potter is WAY better. Twighlight was good but sort of unrealistic. Like there's actually a vampire who falls in love with a person. Now, Cirque du Freak, that is exactly equal to Harry Potter, needless to say, it is far superior to Twighlight.

There is now way that vampires and werewoves get along. That part was utterly stupid.

IMAGINE WRITING SEVEN BOOOKS AS BIG AS HARRY POTTER. Stephenie Myer's a good author to a certain point,but the last book could have been WAY shorter. the first was good, but it went downhill from there.

yea i totally agree with u...HP all the wayy :)

OMG THE HUNGER GAMES IS LIKE THE BEST BOOK IN THE WORLD (apart from harry potter lol :D) i love it sooooo much.....im team peeta 2 :)

what the fuck is wrong with most of u people! TWILIGHT IS THE BEST THING ON THIS DAMN EARTH! get it in to ur head! ugh. and y is everything harry potter vs. twilight? there is nno comparison. bloody hell! how can it be boring? it is not like "the vampire diaries" since it doesnt have all this crap about elena going to some underworld and finding this tramp who ends up being rich, i mean, what r the chances of that? seriously? i actually LOVE teh vampoire diaries, but i DO disagree with antone who says it is exactly like twilight, cause that is just WRONG
i also advise any twilight or vampire lovers to read:
the vampire diaies
the house of night
TRUE BLOOD
the vampire academy
etc.

oh! and i am
TEAM EDWARD!!!!
not team jacob, the gey idiot.
robert pattinson is extremely hot, whereas taylor lautner is a confident prick, and wat is up with his nose!!

no confusion when it comes to the twilight saga. x ;P
