OK, I feel a little bad. I was kinda mean...it would have been funnier if you would have responded, though! And I admit, I'm curious...I'm okay with the basic plot (of Twilight, not Breaking Dawn)...it just bothers me the way she gets to it. I don't like a lot about her writing...like how she uses the same words and phrases a lot...and the same topics of conversation...and I hate most of her characters...I like, as I said, three of them. Several are meh, but the rest are like UGH.

And I have finally discovered the thing that bothers me most! I've been thinking about it, because you guys have been so obsessed about Breaking Dawn...The best way to say it is in Professor Slughorn's words from Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. "It is impossible to manufacture or imitate love. No, this will only create a powerful infatuation or obsession." I don't know that much of Edward or Jacob, but to me, Bella has that...obsession more than real love...which bothers me! The main character shouldn't be a fake! As you can guess, she's not on my list of 3 good characters...

Anyway, so now you understand more of my opinion...

What "IS NOT!"?

ok, I admit in Twilight she does really focus on her obsession of Edward. and New Moon is even worse. but as the books go on, Stephenie Meyer gets better on dwelling on other parts of the plot. Breaking Dawn is the most mature I think. It is probably because she has had more experience, though.

What I meant was, it is not "obsessive".

*sticks tongue out again*

Hey, which ones do you like?

*GO JACOB!*

Heh. Not that I'm hinting at something, or anything...

I'll give you a hint. None of the three is Jacob.


I LOATHE Jacob. I think he's an idiot.
