The Twilight Saga

Exactly. I mean it’s fair enough to fall in love and want to be immortal, sure. But as far as she was aware she would never see her parents again and would break their hearts. She was so happy to do that even though they were barely even together.
The intensity was there from Edward at times, but from her side, just desperation. I think she was really selfish then. Like you said, wait until the relationship develops a bit, give it some time to progress before you are willing to immediately throw away your family and everything you know.

I also hated how she treated her dad in general. She was so cold to him at first, and it made it awkward to watch.

Me too! And I have a love triangle in my story, so that’s going to be fun to write! :grimacing: Although it’s not that she plays both of them in my case. She just doesn’t have the time to date. Saving her race and all

Well as long as it isn’t one sided it’s not as bad. You know how he loves her but she couldn’t give a fudge.

Nah she’s going to be very open with them that she finds them attractive, but that she doesn’t have the time to date :stuck_out_tongue: and also that she’s interested in both of them in different ways

Yeah. Being awkward is another thing but she just didn’t appreciate his concern for her. He went to such lengths to make her happy and make her feel comfortable and it was her decision after all, to come live with him. The least she could do was to be appreciative.

Exactly… why not just go with her mother if she was going to be so ungrateful.
Ugh she just frustrated me. She was on my “hit in the face with a truck” list.

And @ShanniiWrites , sounds like a better way of doing it. As long As they all know where they stand you know.

I read the unfinished POV of Edward by Stephanie Meyer and like, he sees her as a girl who basically babysits her mother and makes a huge sacrifice for her but like, okay, you came to Forks for your mother.

That’s well and good.

But honey, what about your father? Did you maybe consider that once?

Dunno about the writing itself. But plot and characters and completely shallow. To me.,

Ok, Twilight is actually the book series that sparked my love for reading too!!!

Maybe we dont love it as much anymore because we got into reading with it, but then realized the big wide world of even better books afterward!
Although I think a lot of people just dont like Twilight because they’re told not to like it.

I loved it when I read it, so I have no reason not to love it now… :woman_shrugging::woman_shrugging:

HOWEVER I watched the first movie before I even knew it was a book and didnt like the movie. Actually stopped it half way thru. Then later decided to read them and now I love the books and the movies.

I didnt really feel like Bella led Jacob on. He was crazy obsessive and I thought she did a good job friend zoning him most of the time.

I also like damsel MCs. And I don’t have much personality, so maybe I relate with Bella a bit.

Which I absolutely don’t like. Twilight was so simple to understand and not at all complex that I think, if I had started reading with one of my presently favourite books, I don’t think I would have fallen in love with reading tbh.

If she’d never done anything with him then I’d agree. But when Edward ran off she got really close with him, knowing his feelings she never told him a boundary.
Not just that, but hellooooo mountain kiss! That was so cruel to do that to him. I know it snapped him out of his mood at overhearing Edward. But it’s cruel to play on his feelings like that.
Throughout the pregnancy she also kept pulling him in to be around her. Which in the end we know why, but whilst it happens, just insensitive. In my opinion.

Okay, so some people tell me “you have have haveeee to read Twilight it’s the best series ever ahhh” and then there are others who are like “stay far far away from Twilight. Don’t waste your breath on those books”. My question is, is it worth the read?

Yes. It’ll always be worth a read, if only to really see what made so many people so crazy
