Twilight, the books

[lesbiassparrow]

DON'T JUDGE ME. I HAVE HAD 8 HOURS SLEEP IN 3 DAYS. JUDGE ME LATER WHEN SANITY RETURNS.

That creepy ass werewolf imprinting thing is even freakier than Edward sitting in her room watching her at night and all his mad controlling behaviour. AND YOU WILL NEVER CONVINCE ME OTHERWISE.

And! Edward's efforts to protect his virtue against Bella's teenage lust for sex sparkles, will never not be golden entertainment.

Rule of thumb with Twilight is, if it's interesting, we skip it. It's like, every single other character is more interesting than Edward and Bella, and even Edward is more interesting in the time before he met Bella. So clearly, we must never, ever talk about any of that. I think she even said she would never write a book about Carlisle, who was born in the 1600s, because it would involve research.

Bella has got to be the most frustrated girl in Forks.

Here's a thought: due to the venom, all the kissing has been close-mouthed, hasn't it? I think there was some reference to that at some point that just made my jaw drop.

Hmmm. I don't know - I have to admit finding all the endless backstory of characters in book 3 a bit boring. Maybe our speculation on Edward's killing sprees, Carlisle's wandering around trying to find a good vampire to hang around and have good veggie times with, etc., might be best left as speculation. Personally, I like to visualize Edward killing people and then writhing in enormous amounts of guilt about it but thinking I MAY BE A MONSTER BUT AT LEAST I AM STILL A VIRGIN. And then doing it again the next week. I also speculate a lot about his mother and what on earth she said to him when he was growing up. I imagine there was a lot about girls only wanting one thing from him...

What makes me really pity Bella is that Edward is in her room pretty much every night. And with the mad stalking every time she goes anywhere and her crappy internet connection, it's not like she can purchase anything to, um, help her out.
