The purpose of this blog is to convince people that Stephanie Meyer should write another book pertaining to the Twilight series. Although the post does not specifically say these words, and rather asks your opinion about the idea, it is clear that the blogger wants you to agree that Meyer should indeed write another book. The writer of this post starts out by making you interested in the Twilight books. She talks about how the books can be interesting for a person of any age. She then proceeds to tell you about how the series ended so abruptly with questions still looming about what the future may hold for certain characters.
It is a very effective way of arguing a point to ask the reader what they may think about the idea. She sets up the answer in the reader’s mind before even asking the opinion of the readers. The one line that particularly stood out to me as helping to convince the readers to agree with her was, “You mean I spent all this time anticipating each book for it to be over like that?!” The language is that full of passion when talking about the characters and meaning in the book, and this makes the reader want to enjoy the fiction story as well.
The last paragraph of her blog questions all the things that Twilight fans might still want to know about the story. She puts this in the form of questions to make it appear that the reader may not agree with Meyer writing another book. However, the way she phrases each question makes you wonder what the answer may be. She uses a very effective form of psychology to convince people to see her view. When reading the comments that readers left, it was clear to me that her form of argument worked out just the way she intended it to. Almost all who commented on this post agree that Meyer should write more about these Twilight characters and their epic story.
