Melina and Steph at Barnes and Nobles (Extreme Sarcasm!)

[kipkayify]

The Barnes and Noble near me is closing... now I have to drive about an hour or so to get books =/ Awful as this sounds, I'm going to really miss the awful YA books that plagued the store.

[zeigler1231]

OMG, i almost died at the part when you said, "there's not enough sparkles in the world." I nearly fell out of my chair! U guys are hilarious!

[Aslara]

I think its necessary for people to start using the wrting tips in your videos, so we do not have to see many ripoff like these ones.

[chipmunkspy5]

Yo Momma LOL

[winterstorm37]

Straker? Wasn't he Barlow's assistant, and Barlow the vampire? (SL is my current all-time favorite).

[ElenaTheMonster]

Lol the "Lucius Vladscu" part always gets me. XD

[ElenaTheMonster]

Lol I'd love to go to Barnes and Noble with you and your friend! You guys crack me up!

[TheBubbleBathMonster]

aww twilight DVDS :D

[23peacelovemusic]

Hahaha! I adore you guys. I do this all the time

[MinaLovesMusic10]

I love the both of you. I do this exact same thing with three of my best friends - except our book stores SUCK. -__-

[natural4lifemiss]

UHG SOOOOO FREAKING TRUE BEFORE TWILIGHT THEIR WAS WAY BETTER STUFF OUT THEIR I CAN'T NAME THEM CAUSE THEN EVERYONE WILL GO AND GET AND RUIN IT

[ooshiikurai]

dood that's an awesome looking barnes and noble.

"if you like the twilight series" [silence] "well that's not us. let's go." lawls.

you sound like me and my friend when we go into bookstores. pick up random books and read them off like they are over dramatic movie trailers. we get a lot of odd looks.

[UndeadUnicron]

HAHAHAHAHA. it's so true!!

[TheNerdyCanuck]

I've watched this video over and over and I just now noticed the giant Catch-22 poster next to the Twilight section. Isn't that sad; classic, amazing literature next to Twishite.

[Stinaisachibi]

that text from Evermore sounds like bad fanfiction lmao

[Mimi2591]

You and your friend are funny and awesome. Yah to Barnes and Noble.

Because of you, getting back to reading GOOD literature like 'Pillars of the Earth' and 'The Goblin Wood'. Inspiration!

[getchaNerdOn]

The book store I go to has so many twilight books it looks like someone went through the whole forest and butchered every tree in sight. I hate that series with a passion. -_-'

[JeromeOokami]

Man it would be so fun to hang out with ya in a bookstore X3

[SlightlyInsane94]

Barnes & Noble is awesome.

[HellAngelsBells]

-.- I know I said below that Borders was better, but now I'm having my doubts.

I went back there for the first time in a long time, so I decided to go upstairs to the young adult section and see what's what ... As soon as I get up the fucking stairs there's Jacob literally leaning down because the poster was sagging. Around the corner from that, Twilight action-figures ... More Twilight books ... Posters.

Fuck! I thought this was a BOOK STORE! Not a fucking Twilight shop.

[Lunage1]

Check out "WARS OF TIMES by LUN"

at Amazon and Barnes&Noble online bookstore

A world like you've never imagined before!!

[jaymie178]

omg I wana be your best friend!

[DjHamHam411]

Love your humor! This video made me subscribe to you! Keep it up! :)

[DestraDawn]

HOW ARE THESE BOOKS PUBLISHED?! Well, at the least it gives me hope for my series, I hope it gives you the same hope as well for yours.

[1emoant]

are u in college melina? i saw in one of your videos. and do more anime! >.<

[Nocturnina91]

LoL, thank you for giving me a heads up on what books not to read (:

[Nocturnina91]

LOL!!

[HellAngelsBells]

Screw Barnes and Nobles ... I do my book shopping at Borders :)

[DragonKeyJones]

you guys are hilarious.

[TheBlackenedWHITE]

believe it or not, you inspired me to read more :)

[katherine9997]

glitter is important to your soul made me laugh sooooooo hard

[TheNerdyCanuck]

I like Steph's voice. Strange yes, but true.

[PuffyAmiYumi]

Actually I found the House of Night series to be quite good. Does have annoying parts to it and still pretty generic to most YA around, but I've been enjoying it ^_^

[Memi596]

Stephenie, look! Twilight DvDS :D

[L3annieee]

lol this made me laugh out loud!

i have read Need though and didnt find it too bad, and it did have some stuff copyed from twilight but the next book Captive was much more orignal and better but still not that good.

[WhyDoYouLieToMe]

The hell? Stargazer would've copied the plot for Vampire Knight almost exactly if the main character had another love interest who was a pureblood. Is nobody original anymore?! D:

[MamaLuigiXYZ]

I'm gonna buy the twilight companion and put silly answers in the questions xD

[LeslieWilsonPerry]

I don't think I've ever been in the YA section at my bookstore (aside from getting my copy of Perks of Being A Wallflower).

XD I'm afraid of it.

[handmiadenofgod]

"I know because I'm physic!"

"Gasp!"

I love how your friend dramatically repeats random words as you read parts of the books. Haha, you guys are awesome XD

[stolenbaby2008]

Your B&N is soooo much bigger than mine! And I live in a bigger state, too. XD

[TheNerdyCanuck]

If you're going to spend all the time and effort thinking up (shallow) characters and (bad) plots, then writing for several months, then trying to find a publisher, then you might as well have an original idea.

[kelseyhm]

wtf is that book at 10:00 lmao ....retarted

[FantasmaLuna]

-Love

-It will prevail.

LOL! You guys are awesome!

[barbie88888888]

it's scary how unoriginal these writers are *gasp!*

[LonelyDita]

After watching and reading and studing Twilight; I honestly believe in my heart I would never see Vampires the same way,

Till I read Lyndsay Sands - Vampire, Interrupted (From the Argeneau Series - number 9 I believe)

I recomend it to you, I think you´d appriciate it, yes it´s a little clichée, but honestly, it surprised the hell out of me.

[allwhitestar]

raven even had names similar to those in twilight & a depressed girl & a very short, singular action scene. i read it on a car trip...obviously i had nothing better to do. sad

[Sing4ever9]

This is why I stay in the adult section. I absolutely despise many young adult books now because they're all the fuckin' same. Also, I just despise Vampire novels, especially after Twilight *shudder*

Anyway, you guys are hilarious. I really did enjoy watching this.

[guitargirl317]

Wow! I can't believe how literature has dulled down into THIS!!! and no sh!t they're all copying Twilight, which is not worth copying off of!

[GerFraMikRayBob]

hahah xD you should review Vampire Academy

[shstkbk]

Hahaha. This is hilarious. I was trying real hard not to laugh out loud. Love this video.

[whitehousesvc729]

Pause at 8:10

That book waaaaaaaaay in the bottom right corner is called The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. I HIGHLY recommend you read that book. No vampires. No sappy romance. Action, adventure, and drama DONE RIGHT. Quite a page turner. (Book #2: called Catching Fire)

Btw, thank you for reminding me about how much literature has really gone to pot these days. I honestly fear how my generation of teens are going to grow up...that's such a scary thought. I'm dead serious.

[shstkbk]

Yeah, that book is awesome!!

[1998sara]

@whitehousesvc729 hell yeah that book rocks

please people read it

[kourtneylayne]

lol I thought you had said you were going to the ADULT section!

[muffanoodle1]

U guys are funny lol

[osrandomblueberrys]

i love vampire knight

[SilhouetteSymphonies]

And btw, as I watched this whole thing it's ridiculous how every single book introduction/back cover you read had SOMETHING to do with Twilight.

[SilhouetteSymphonies]

Oh, this is HILARIOUS. Especially during 1:42-155

[Lythya]

Don't you like Eragon?

[VampiressClaudia]

"glitter is important to the soul", genius. pure genius.

[hackup101]

hey do you know if they ship to isreal from ther site

[XDreamingX]

ILU XD....good thing the main characters in my eventual book arent even CLOSE to vampires...-.-;

WEREWOLVES RULE! *runs away*

[XDreamingX]

DUMP OIL ON ALL OF IT AND BURN IT!!!!!!!

[writerperson44]

lol

[TheSteveTheSecond]

lol

You guys are great.  xD

[ECM630]

Why did Vampire books become so popular in the past few years? I mean they've always been their but now they are just everywhere.

[ChaosApprentice]

I am a teenager myself btw

[ChaosApprentice]

Well there goes my chances of writing a YA novel that actually makes you think.

[AquaJet999]

OMG, feel a bit discouraged about finishing my vampire book if it's going to be compared to all the others like that D:

But funny video :D

[The74955]

I wish i could've been there i'd like to knock all those twilight books off the table

[FlutterbyA]

I love the camera person. 'old!' ...'gold!' ...'skin!'

lmao XD brillant

[papercrane192]

why thank you =)

[TurkeyMayor]

I've read "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies". It's great.

There are some good YA books out there. I liked "The Hunger Games" by Suzanne Collins, for instance. Everyone's just trying to copy Twilight now. It's rather disappointing.

[evinessioc]

God. o.o

Seeing all of those stupid vampire books....It ruined my desire to continue writing about vampires...

I like how that customer just sounds all, "Uh...what?"

[kblixt]

I read some new books, but I buy reprints and older books.

[thejohnsmith]

Lol....very heavy on the sarcasm.

[writter1211987]

Need is actually good

the stalker dude is her dad

[DarkKendall]

I've been looking for Salem Lot, though it wasn't in my school library. Apparently they haven't heard of it there. It made me facepalm.

-facepalm-

[DarkKendall]

I feel sorry for that girl that was caught on camera. She probably doesn't know that the video has gotten over a thousand views.

[DarkKendall]

Your friend sounds familiar. Do you guys live in GA???

[MelinaPendulum]

Nope good ol' NY

[DarkKendall]

Ah, ok, didn't know that.

[FunkesDragonRider]

@MelinaPendulum

That explains the huge fucking book store. XD

I wish we had on like that where I live.

[DarkKendall]

I know it's a waste of time to make, but Britain doesn't care for pubic hair, unlike Americans.

[littlekitsune1]

What happened to the good old days, when books taught our teens morals and how to be good people. Not how to fall in love in two days and fuck a demon.

[estur]

That was thoroughly entertaining. I never realized how there are so many "books" on print that are exactly like Twilight.

[MelinaPendulum]

It scary isn't it.

[estur]

Extremely scary. So many junk, It's a waste for trees.

[Lucifuhrerr]

@MelinaPendulum

No, it gets worse. Borders pretty much has their own shrine and section of the store for just one "series".... Not that hard to guess what it is.

[PinkXParade]

And thats why I read books from the 80's and under. XD

The only "newer" book I've read was "House of many Ways" just to finish the Howl series.

x3

Everything else is- well, like Twilight. [pretty much..]

[Rischan789]

I read some of Evermore and almost stopped spotting all of the adjectives and description in the first sentence. God, that book was atrocious. And the name-dropping. I have to bleach my brain now. -Remembers how much telling there is-. NOO!

I have to read the Pride and Prejudice and Zombies book (I love zombies). Your reaction when reading The Twilight Companion was hilarious. And for the 'Salem's Lot question, I'll go with yo momma (XD).

[beatabeatrixx]

This is why I subscribe!

[BastasGirl]

LMAO

'She speaks to the teenager in us all!'

[thespiritmage]

I condemn that "companion book" to hell for the mentioning of true vampire literature in a book based on... sparklies.

This is why my young adult book collection is either a) based in reality or b) revolve around witches/witchcraft. I save the vampire and werewolf books to the Sci-fi/Fantasy section (but their witch books are good also).

P.S. You and Steph are made of win.

[1000huzzahs]

WIN: You two

[Isaia]

I lol'd a giant lol. But now I'm sad, because I realize how so many writers are encouraged to write the same kind of stories with STALKINGSPARKLESFORBIDDENLOVE.

Do not want. D:

[Dussterslove99]

COME ON! the House of Night is amazing! I LOVE THAT BOOK! But if oyu dont like it then I'll live. (Breathes heaviely)

[RizzaLikesPizza]

I freking hate the YA section at my BN. I mean all the books are the same! Its either about angsty vampires or perfect, beautiful, rich kids.

Also I love the video!

[wajmgirl]

I wish I was somewhere near you guys, I'd love to go book slamming on my days off!

[moonlight9283]

Well that book Rumors was actually good though... and I liked Evernight too lol

[ipromisexoxo]

lolzzz

[KawaiiNekoGoth]

Argh the Barns and Noble where I live is like.. and hour and a half away. T_T

And Lord, that Twilight section looks like it would make my head expload. X_X

[KawaiiNekoGoth]

**Is vampire Knight based off that book? O__O"

But with Japanese names?? XD

[MelinaPendulum]

No. VK came out before that book.

I did that cough thing to show how the books plot was the same as VK

[KikimoLie]

Your B and N seriously kicks ass!

[Cuddlebunzzz]

wow, i can't believe there's all of those "extra" books about Twilight, as if it is some complex well-developed universe like Star Wars that deserves to be expanded and explored more...not.

i wish there were more people in the background, just to see their reactions. but i guess all the vids about the WWE Melina in the Related Videos window makes up for it.

[papercrane192]

OMG dude we sooo have 2 do this again btw cant wait til vacation we will party like its 1999 w-o-o-t

[IamJACKsYTpage]

Eragon. It's like LOTR and Star Wars had a baby, and the baby has Down's Syndrome.

Also, lol at a Stephen King question being in a book about Stephanie Meyer's vamps. XD

[RinLockhart]

You guys are just awesome.

[twilighter2damax]

THIS WAS HILARIOUS. you and steph NEED to do this more often.

pssh marked-- i dont know who said that but the girls are not better or at least the main character isnt.....

[YongWing1]

XD!!! OMG!! Wow. I've been having thoughts about the Twilight invasion of bookstores similar to that for awhile now and you just voiced them all. Kick ass!

[LittleMissEvil89]

u gatta understand that no book is original. every book no matter which is taken from somewhere else but these are beyond unoriginal. thats why i dont read teen vampire books .......

ps do u have some recomendations for good books i could read??

[LucySanchez90]

Oh dear god, those book summaries are too hilarious. I miss originality. Kudo's for being brave enough to go into the YA section of B and N and make fun of these. You and your friend each get a freshly made e-cookie for your sheer awesomeness!

[MelinaPendulum]

We realized that the Adult section is not that much better, so we decided to see what was poisoning the minds of the Youth.

Poor Youth...

Oh crap!

I'm one of them !!!

[MelinaPendulum]

lol try Buffy ^^

P.S

Thank YOU!!

[phantomrox87]

Marked is better than twilight. Hated twilight; Edward is so unreal and fake. In marked, The guys are more realistic and the girls are better.

[MelinaPendulum]

Is it? Cause I want to read it but the way it is advertised turns me off.

[KGnoMoM]

Oh man, that was brilliant, I was laughing so hard.

[Ayumi85]

LMAO, this was funny! the summaries for the books are almost the same! LOL at Pride and Prejudice with zombies xDDDDD I want to read that.

[MelinaPendulum]

It's all-dark girl/hot guy/forbidden love

[FASHi0NxRENTluver]

lol...that pic of rob. is type weird/embrassing..feel bad 4 the poor boy..GET ME SUM POPCORN TOO!!!

[MelinaPendulum]

KAY! -gets popcorn for Zy-

[laurariddle292]

I would love to go book shopping with you!

[MelinaPendulum]

If you are in the NY area we would love to!

[goblingirl13]

Did they honestly say you momma in the multiple choices, or did you girls through that in for kicks.

"I'm done with Vampires"

lol I hear you hun... I'm ashamed to tell anyone I read Vampire fiction... or write it for that matter. lol

[MelinaPendulum]

No it really said Yo Mamma -_-

lol It makes me not want to write my vampire novel

[rinygrin]

You two are adorable, awesome video! XD

[bookwormfaeriegirl]

Oh my gosh, the summaries of those books made me puke.

[VampTramp123]

I love Vampires....I'm just so disappointed to how many books sound so much alike with the whole "Teen Romance" I picked up Vampire Academy today and I'm a bit wishy washy about it now.

other then that...

Your little trip was funny! You remind me of my friends, we do stuff like that together.

[MelinaPendulum]

I like VA. Its got its cliches but it also has alot of uniqueness about it. When you get to the 2nd and 3rd book I think you'll see alot more balance

[VampTramp123]

That's good to know. :)

[disneyjasmine01]

lol this was hilarious =)

[mybunnysuit]

I'm going to get that p&p zombie book.

[satanicwatermelon]

They make me embarrassed to be a fan of *actual* (albeit fictional) vampires.

Guess I could always move on to human sociopaths.... *le sigh* It just isn't the same. :(

[twilightfan44266]

hey um were u making fun of twilight i love it and ur still so funny

[MelinaPendulum]

lol thanks ^^

[HistoryGirl345]

LMAO that was so funny, I love scarcasm!!!

[MelinaPendulum]

lol...did you see the annotations?

[HistoryGirl345]

No they weren't on when I watched it.

[MelinaPendulum]

they are up now check it out ^^

[EvilChibiDevil]

actually House of Night is ok though it can get a little annoying when they repeat stuff and the fact the main character Zoey falls in love with 4 guys and 3 of them love her back....

The one thing you personally might like is the fact that the greatest evil is beautiful not ugly :D now thats new isn't it

[MelinaPendulum]

le sigh...XD

P.S:

Added some annotations ^-^

[EvilChibiDevil]

le gasp :0 annotations?!

this is why I shouldn't watch a vid right when its posted XD

anyways how big is that Barnes and Nobles because it looks huge through the camera, makes all the books stores around here look like borders express.

[rin0015]

wooooo first view and comment! i love ur videos

[MelinaPendulum]

Watch again with the added annotations lol
