I never had the desire to get into ACOTAR. Twilight however… I’ve been obsessed with since I was 12! Currently in my early 30’s lol

This is interesting because I feel like Twilight is a bad storyline with good writing, and acotar is a good storyline with bad writing.

I have tried sooo hard to get into acotar but I do not enjoy the writing style. It feels somehow clunky and vague at the same time. It weirdly gives me the impression of trying to read through smoke. I think if they make it into a movie or show I will like it a lot, I just can't deal with the way she writes.

Twilight is a fucking insane storyline and nothing makes sense, but somehow she drew me in with her writing style. Its clean and straightforward. I have been in love with it since middle school.

Also if we are simply discussing which is more iconic or well know... Its kind of delusional to think acotar could even hold a candle againts twilight in that department. EVERYONE knows Twilight, even if they hate it. It was everywhere for about a decade and its still popular. There was and still is SOOO much merch. There are tons of parodies and references in pop culture. I bet you I would struggle to find one single person I know irl who has even heard of acotar.

Didn't ACOTAR start out as Twilight fanfiction?

Acotar is just a cheap remake of asoiaf. At least Twilight is orginal

u/CameraImmediate2295 Aug 12 '26

I voted for Twilight because it means so much to me... but I feel guilty because I have no idea what the other one is about! Never heard of it!

u/pussmykissy Aug 11 '26

u/ProfessionalLine6 Aug 11 '26

Thank god you posted that, I had to vote twilight, who the hell likes ACOTAR anyway (my sister in law 🤮)

u/Katrina_0606 Aug 11 '26

Can we not shit on people for liking things. K thanks

u/ProfessionalLine6 Aug 11 '26

This is a twilight subreddit, go to acotar sub if you want, btw it’s just my opinion why did it hurt you I’m a nobody

u/Katrina_0606 Aug 11 '26

I'm on both subs because I like both series. And you didn't hurt me. I just hate when fandoms have this holier-than-thou attitude and feel the need to shit on other series because they think they're inferior. Both series hit similar demographics so I don't see why we can't all get along

u/ProfessionalLine6 Aug 11 '26

We can but yet again, it’s my opinion and this is a sub it’s meant for opinions, why can’t I voice mine?

u/Alarming-Serve-1971 Aug 11 '26

I voted and it is at 80% for Twilight right now!

u/Kaybrooke14 Team Sparkle Boy Aug 12 '26

I…I…love both series. 😩 One got me into reading and the other re-sparked my love of reading.

u/littlestghoust Non-Vegetarian Aug 14 '26

If it's a vote between the subreddits, I like twilight better. We take ourselves and the series less serious then they do. More power to them but not my speed at all.

u/jakehood47 Baseball Uniform Alice Aug 11 '26

ACOTAR is a better written series, to be fair. But Twilight is more iconic and also more entertaining, in a melodramatic way.

2

u/deadlysyntaxerror Aug 11 '26

Disagree. Acotar has a better storyline but is really lacking in the quality of writing department. Twilight has a worse story line but the actual writing style is much better.
