    It's like the new Harry Potter except even more directed towards women. There's a whole freaking series!

    You should drug yourself up before you get drug.

    I have only recently heard about the book.
    I will not read it.
    I may rent this movie out of the RedBox.

    My girlfriend is obsessed with the series. I can only presume it's the equivalent of my Pearl Jam obsession in terms of irritation factor.

    Yeah, I despise Harry Potter so I'm guessing I would NOT enjoy this. Oh well...like I said, I'd never even heard of it until now.

    yeah...i think the 3rd book in the series just came out not too long ago. all of the girls that i work with read through the entire series within a week!! i don't understand it all either?! i had to schedule 2 of my managers off this evening so that they could go see the movie.

    i refuse to read this series...i'm not going to fall for the hype. harry potter is as far as i'll go :)
    yes...i do feel like a human. i do not feel like a tree.

    I never really heard of those books till the movie came out. It doesn't really look like anything special. I guess if you are a big fan of the books it's a big deal.

    Any of you who, in any way, fancy yourself a writer, go pick up that book and read one page. Some of the worst writing I have ever read... ever. Jeebus, I really need to dumb my writing down (and I'm not smart!) in order to appeal to the masses.

    Does anyone know of any guys who have read the books? As far as I can tell, they sell exclusively to teenage girls, or women who wish they were. :p

    lol..I think they written for the tween/teen set. I worked with a girl though that was obsessed with them. She's 25.

    My girlfriend's daughter reads them and she loves them. The previews of the movie pretty much sealed it's fate in my opinion.
