Just finished Prometheus Bound. I have to say I'm dissappointed that today's youth think that Twilight and Artemis Fowl are great works of literature. It's really quite sad. They aren't bad... they just aren't good either. Teen books are a joke. Also, recently reread Pynchon's Gravity's Rainbow and Hyperspace and Physics of The Impossible, both by Michio Kaku, a physicist. He's also a futurist- I think Odlov might like him. Also, I read A Brief History of Time (Tenth Edition) a few years back when I visited the Harvard bookstore. Excellent, and I found it mildly humorous as well as enlightening.

That is not true. some teenage books today are really good books. for example

skullduggery plesant books are really popular and has a good storyline
Darren shan series were best sellers and had a brillant storyline and charactors in each book.

So not all teenage books are a joke like you are saying only a few are just like some adult books are a joke and just like some kids books are a joke.

And the Twilight series were worldwide best sellers.
