Hi
Hey guys, this is pocket_mouse114 , known to Connie as Yi-chan.
For any of you Twilight-haters, I highly recommend going to TwilightLady's website: www.stepheniemeyer.com.
It's truly hilarious. I mean, you actually get to read the thoughts of this crazy lady who created Twilight and ruined young adult literature forever, warped the minds of independent young women everywhere, etc. DID YOU KNOW that you can read the first half of Midnight Sun (Twilight from Edward's point of view)? It sucks even more than Twilight. You might think that Bella is annoying and whiny and selfish, but Edward is 10000000 times worse:
What Happens In Midnight Sun:
1. Ed angsts about how boring immortality is because he has to spend all of it in high school. If you're so beautiful and talented, WHY ARE YOU EVEN GOING TO HIGH SCHOOL? I think "purgatory" is the word he uses.
2. Edward describes the torture he's going through as he smells Bella's SWEET blood. Right. Do we really want to know? On one hand, he wants to eat her. On the other hand, he doesn't want to disappoint his father, St. Carlisle.
3. He falls in love with Bella. This is the confusing part. Actually, Alice predicted that he would fall in love with her, so he was like, "Oh, okay! Since Alice is psychic, whatever she says will come true!" Then he goes to her house and climbs in her window to watch her sleep. Because she sleep-talks. How convenient. He has an excuse to stalk her at night. And later we find out that Bella is FLATTERED by this show of attention. Wow, TwilightLady. Way to go. Great example you're setting here.
4. Ed goes crazy with jealously because all the boys in the school fall over themselves to get Bella's attention. Right, because she's so "plain."
5. Then---well, you know what happens if you read Twilight. Blah blah van blah blah hospital blah blah Port Angeles blah rapists blah Italian restaurants blah shiny car blah. And then they have some question-answer sessions where Ed tells Bella about vegetarian vamps (and Bella tells Edward her favorite color and how many goldfish she has, but that happens when he picks her up for school, which Twilight Lady didn't post on her website yet).
I'm not sure I included everything. I'll have to go back and read it again and make the necessary corrections.
