Posters are a bit harder, considering that they are probably plastered all over the place. Once you have all memorabilia, commence burning it, if at all possible. Throwing it in the trash works also, though you may need to keep watch until the garbage trucks pick it up. Burying it in the compost heap is a more earth-friendly alternative, but you must watch and make sure they aren't taking it back in the house.

If at all possible, ban the books from the house. Remember, you are the parent, so you make the rules. You have every right to tell your child not to read them, and it will save you a lot of trouble if you ban them in the first place. Due to the kind of influence Twilight has, if your child threatens suicide, if your child steps that down the moral ladder, then...never lose hope. Some anti-depressants (that are legal) and some feel-good actions might encourage your offspring to revert.
