    I think Sasha is very good at interviewing people, she always seems very natural and authors seems to genuinely like her.Also, I'm not a fan of Twilight so I never watched any interviews but Stephanie Meyer seems like a very nice person. And SO YOUNG. HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE

    • @Square-er1kl
      @Square-er1kl 8 лет назад +7

      Yesss. They talked about how they love long books because you can live in it. The Host was like my first long read. I was 15 at the time and started passionately reading when I was 12. This was life changing for me. I was so daunted by the idea of such a thick book, and then I read it and fell in love and I found it still wasn't long enough! Such nostalgia and I really, really hope there will be a sequel.

  • @laurengroves3811

  • @Pumpkin0_0
    @Pumpkin0_0 8 лет назад +9

    I kind of understand how a number of people didn't particularly like the books and/or the movies. As a writer myself, my first book had over 550 pages and my second had over 600, but I was still learning and it didn't show what I could do as a writer, to have more structured ideas. Only one person read them, and I still have the documents since 2008. So the saga being her first writing experience, I can understand why it wasn't for certain audiences. First-time writers are still entering the writing world and learning how to express their imagination through words. But I'm not saying that it's bad writing, of course. Great interview, by the way! :D

    Wow this might be my favorite video I saw in a while! Stephanie had so much influence on me and whilst writing this I just finished New Moon and Eclipse is on my bedside drawer again! I'm rereading the Twilight series again which I do every fall :) The books are so good I just can't stop putting them down over and over again! I'm a 19 year old Law student from Holland and I don't think I will ever stop reading the Twilight series! (I do read them in English because the writing is perfect and so much better than translated in Dutch) The song in the video gave me goosebumps because I have such a connection with the music from the series. And you guys are in Forks how amazing! I want to go there so bad once in my life! Lots of love from Holland

    When Stephenie said that Maleficient is meant to be "evil", I fell in LOVE with her! I've told that to everyone after I saw Maleficient with Angelina Jolie. I TOTALLY agree that she owned her evilness and I LOVED it!!! :) ugh! I love Stephenie!!

    The fact she says she plans on writing more books is the best news ever! regardless of the possible release date/year (2016 would be awesome though) I am so glad some of you people had a chance to interview her! This is awesome! I hope some day I can get a book signed by her, and hopefully get it at a book signing! (sometimes authors sell signed copies on online bookstores is why I say that). Whatever this new book is it may not be a continuation of any of her current series but I definitely think her fans and new fans will pick up her new book. Hopefully this might open doors for her to want to eventually be releasing books from her current series (The Host especially)

    Loved the video! Was really interesting to hear Stephenie Meyer talk about her books, I always loved them, wasn't a huge fan of the films though!
    Also weren't they wasps at the end of the video? Much worse than bees D: I can't believe you managed to keep your composure XD
