Lets get this straight, I do love Twilight. I read all 4 books. I even wasted 2 hours to see the movie.
I find Twilight and all the books following it enjoyable.
Still, there are some things that bother me about it.

Bella, throught the whole book, is portrayed as being "plain". Yet, she has 3 boys falling all over her. And then with her plain looks she manages to steal the "perfect" and unresistable Edward Cullen. Jessica, in my mind, had a better chance of being with Edward.

Then, Bella is portrayed as a clumsy, though mature teenager. The only way that she is mature is that she cooks breakfast for Charlie and is apparantly an ideal child to have around the. Another point is Bella's almost disgusting clumssiness. Through this she is more often portrayed as a damsel in distress.
The clumsiness is not a nice or cute touch.
I actually prefered if my so called soulmate didn't fall every two seconds.
Then, the plot is somewhat too fanfic for me.
I mean, it really does sound like a fanfic of Anne Rice's vampires stories.
And then, the last book is almost sickening.
The writing is somehwta good.
Thought the ending suprised me. I actually expected for something to happen. the volturi to fight, not to simply back off.
Then comes Bella's perfect daughter, who apprantly is very well behaved and doesn't need any parenting at all.
And did I mention that the child eats her way out of Bella?
The whole chapetr is filled with things liek that, Bella's spine breaking and lots of blood.
Oh speaking of blood, when in the womb the child must have blood to survive, thus forcing Bella to drink blood from a cup.
I for one, am disgusted by blood. I simply cannot stand it.
The aspect of actually drinking it made me pale and slightly light headed while reading.
Then in comes Jacob. Throught the whole series, almost, Bella tortured him, mercifuless. She makes him love her, just so that she can hear Edward's "voice" in her head, then she breaks his heart.
Even in the fourth book, she makes him stay with her.
Maybe its because I'm on Team Jacob. Maybe thats the reason I feel so strongly about this.
Then comes the /killer/ plot.
Its simple, the ending to the last book was terrible.
There really was no point to have the Volturi raise a huge army just so they can come and chat with the Cullens.
Why was there no fight?
Nothing, oh and then Bella is apparantly so strong taht she fends off the Volturi all by herself.
She's a big girl now.
Ohh and to touch on the Mary-Sueness of this.
Bella, is apprantly so amazing that she is the all powerfull shield. Ohh and she becomes even more beautiful.

Again, I still love Twilight.
I'm still a Team Jacob fanatic.
Yes, i do love Edward's hair in the movie.

  • Phoebe336 0 Phoebe336I certainly agree.
  • lizrocks19 0 lizrocks19I agree!
  • BoBiceRoxMySox 0 BoBiceRoxMySoxI have to disagree on some, and agree on others. Jessica probably did have more of a chance, but I found Jessica a little dis-likable. And I must add that I think it is very weird that Bella freaks out at the sight of blood in the first book, but then she's a VAMPIRE!
  • ripzacshair 60 ripzacshairTo the first point, it really is the new kid syndrome. In a small town, it doesn't matter if the new kid is cute or pretty or what. They WILL have a following. Because the rest of the kids in town probably remember when Johnny peed his pants in 2nd grade and Jane ate her boogers. I've been the new girl many times, and was totally not cute when I was younger, but new = they will fall all over you. Yeah, the end of the last book made me laugh, though. I was thinking, ooh, and the perfect daughter will grow up until she's the perfect age so she looks as old as the other cullens and does not have any venom and life is perfect. I mean, the Harry Potter epilogue was better than the end of BD! The movie, my mom and I giggled all the way through, because nothing was explained, it was just EMO!Edward staring and montages of "bonding time". It was like watching a really bad movie, knowing it would be bad.
  • katerade 0 kateradeWOW UR A BRAT I MEAN WHY DID U HAVE 2 WRITE ALL THAT CRAP 4 NO GOOD RESON?
  • XxJackAndSallyxX 0 XxJackAndSallyxXWOW UR A BRAT I MEAN WHY DID U HAVE 2 WRITE ALL THAT CRAP 4 NO GOOD RESON? --------------- Everyone is intentitled to an opinion. I see Twilight as a disgrace to literature. You, I assume, you don't and that is okay. But you are not allowed to put someone down because of their differnces in opinion, mostly because this is considered very rude. I do not find it entartaining, nor do I find your comment to be enlightning.
  • 0 alex010I disagree- Edward is too adorable. He is so romantic. He sweeps Bella off her feet. She falls completely in love with him. The comes in stupid Jacob! He ruins it all! When I was reading I actually cried because at the middle of BD the last book she HAD to kiss Jacob I was sooo mad that I felt like stabbing my book!! I felt like it was all a joke and I wouldn't open my book up for a whole day! Now that killed me! I have now been happy since Edward is her lover and Jacob is no where to be found! I was sooo happy!! Thats my opinion!
  • ILoveCatsAndFoxes 0 ILoveCatsAndFoxesAgreed!!
  • Kionna 0 KionnaInteresting view. I myself remember reading the first one in 6th grade and loving it but now that I look back I find some flaws but I still like the book as it is preserved in my memory. But I do agree on the Volturi and blood points that you made. Very well written opinion. :d ~Kionna
