| | |  Vampire knocks Potter off the top spot
Now that Deathly Hallows has been out for a month, it is beginning to lose the top spot of the bestsellers list by a new novel, Eclipse. Eclipse, by Stephenie Meyer, follows the story of Edward Cullen and Bella Swan, a bloodthirsty vampire and a popular teenage girl. It is the third book in the series, taking place after Twilight and New Moon. Quote:
Much like Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling's rags-to-riches story, Meyer's life took a fairy tale turn. Four years ago, she was a stay-at-home mother of three with no writing experience. Then one night, she had a fateful dream about a vampire's confession of love to a girl.
You can read more here.
Seeing as Eclipse hasn't been released worldwide, and some SSers are fans of the book, it'd be great if all spoiler talk went here. Thanks to Tina for pointing this out! | |

I have Twilight, New Moon, and Eclipse. They are my second favorite series. It sucks that they kicked HP off the top though. I have to say, Edward is the perfect boyfriend...

I saw those in Barnes & Noble the other night and they do look rather entertaining...was thinking about buying them later on when I've got some extra money.
I do still adore JK's books though, so no comparison ever...they will always be the best!!!

You spelled her name wrong. It's Stephenie. With an E, not an A. Oh, thanks for pointing that out. *fixes it*
I guess DH couldn't hold the top spot forever...

Go Twilight!
It's about time. Those books are amazing, my second favorite series, next to HP. Stephenie Meyer is awesome... JKR has had the top spot much too long, it's time for another excellent author to shine through.
I actually don't like fantasy books that much, but HP and the Twilight series are my two and only favorites, lol.
I really recommend reading them like... whoa. They are meant for young adults though so like... 14+ I'd suppose. Not as meant for children as HP.

I love Twilight,New Moon and Eclipse so much! But not as much as Harry Potter so that surprises me that Eclipse got the top spot! But I'm glad because that series is amazing.

No!!!!!! Harry Potter beaten!? Well at least it wasn't the Mugglenet book that beat Harry Potter, that would've been really bad.
