as for your recap of Twilight, yes, spot-on! I admire your attempt to see it through a tween's eyes too. When I first read Twilight, I giggled through the whole book, set it down, and then went THAT WAS TERRIBLE. (And then picked up Sunshine by Robin McKinley. Mmmmm Constantine.) So I understand that it is giggle-worthy and such, but honestly? Nothing happens, and Edward "chuckles" every other page.
anyway talking about Twilight depresses me, BUT TOTAL ECLIPSE OF THE HEART IS POSSIBLY ONE OF MY FAVORITEST THINGS EVER, and I never thought you could improve on that original music video, BUT THE GERMANS HAVE COME PRETTY DARN CLOSE.
...oh my God that was a vampire singing Total Eclipse of the Heart. please tell me you linked this in light of the latest SLOD post.
I actually found out about it from someone else in the comments of the most recent SLOD post. I was like, "I had heard of this musial but HOW DID I NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS ASPECT OF IT!"
I totally and completely agree with the autonomy issue. It is depressing and rather scary to watch people become extensions of someone they believe themselves to be in love with, and most of the time there's not even anything you as an outsider can do about it. It frightens me that there are people out there idolizing this relationship, it really, really does.
