So me & my friends read twilight end of last year.. and like all the rest of you guys.. fell in love with it, and it wasnt soon before long that we were edward cullen obsessing.... After having finished reading Eclipse for the 7th time a couple of weeks ago.. I thought "HEY maybe I should read Twilight again.." So I asked my friend to borrow it and she said sorry I don't have it, I went to the school library and *gasp,schock,horror* They didn't have it .. So I walked straight up to the librarian and asked to request it ... this was her reply

"TWILIGHT?!?!" (basically screaming)
"You are the tenth person today asking for this god-damned book... I WILL NOT HAVE IT in my library...no I will not, this is a catholic school and I will not tolerate a story on vampires and romance and nonsense, I will never ever get that book for this library..no siree.. it is BANNED by the principal"

Is this the most ridicolous thing you have ever heard?!?!
Do you think that this is fair?! :(
Or do you think that it is understandable..considering it's a catholic school?

Personally I think that it is ridicolous!! Me and my friend were soo angry that we wrote twilight-stephenie meyer 100 times on a blank sheet of paper,cut them out and put them in the request box......



I do say that, that is pretty well ignorant of the library and ridiculous. I mean it may be a catholic school but it is only fiction it's not like the book is proclaiming that vampires are real. This sounds like when Harry Potter first came out....


i totally agree with you.

Also, I think the library thinks that if they ban it .. people are just going to not read it ... kind of like their protecting us ... But ever since they've banned it people have become more & more drawn into it

that is so retarded, even if it was a catholic school. thats not fair. and its not about nonsense.
clearly, that librarian has not read the series, if she would read them, she would probably order soo many copies.lol

OMG!!! that's so retarded. when i first was going to read twilight i asked my librarian, and of course it wasn't in. I went every single day!!! i'm so serious to ask her for it...and she was really nice, finally i forgot to ask her for it one day but she kept it for me til' the next day. but i feel for you cause my mom would never ever approve of that book...just because she's too close minded. so i have to sneek behind her to buy it

First Harry Potter, now this mess! Well, its to be expected. The series' growing popularity will cause lots of problems.

Exactly! Teenagers are rebellious.

that is just dumb, why would they have dracula and not Twilight...
ugh!
maybe they should read before they judge
maybe because of the cover too since it has a religious meaning...

well, quite frankly, it's human nature to want what you can't have. Gosh, look at Bella. FORBIDDEN FRUIT people. {{it always tastes the sweetest}}

thats the stupidest thing i've ever heard. i go to a christian school, and seriously, theres a lot more of adult content in books that i've seen than vampires. i mean, seriously! THEY HAVE TEDD DECKER BOOKS!

thats just kind of retarded poop. maybe the librarian lady was PMSing.

thats stupid! but people do this kinda thing all the time. i bet the school was just sick of 50 thousand kids asking for the book, so they made up a lame excuse to 'ban' it
