Twilight; the life-sustaining force of many teenage girls, the new religion of the paranormal obsessed pre-teen, the blissful escape of the unhappy housewife. I could go on.
Love it or hate it, there's no denying that this is one popular series. Most bookstore cary four or five copies of each title, but how many copies are too many? I'm sure your asking yourself, how many copies do you have at Books For Less? Well, my friends, hold onto your hat and don't fall out of your chair, we have a whopping total of 94 copies of the Twilight series. How did we get so many copies? Well, most of the books in our store come in on trade, so each copy represents an individual who said to decided to reject the franchise and move onto better things in the world of Young Adult literature. Vampire Academy perhaps?
The truth is, the series just isn't selling like it used to and more and more people are growing tired of all the hoo-hah about it, so rather than our number of copies steadily decreasing, we're gaining more and more copies every day. With all these copies lying around and nobody buying them, I'm considering building a house out of Twilight novels. Hopefully a big, bad werewolf won't blow it down.
