It reeks of: Twilight mania.
Who you’d know: If you don’t know who Stephenie Meyer is by now, just look up J.K. Rowlings minus a couple books (and overactive imagination)
Synopsis: Bella wants to be a turned into a vampire. Edward wants her to marry him. Jacob wants Bella. And Victoria wants them all dead.
Verdict: Oh, Twilight. I have a love-hate relationship with you. I love unrequited love stories, and I most certainly love love triangles. But this one dragged on a bit. Let me put it this way: Twilight, the first volume, was a great intro to the whole world. New Moon was fabulous, and made me fall in love with Jacob and Jacob’s Bella, and made me start to loathe Edward. Eclipse made me realize that Bella becomes weak and clingy with Edward, but not with Jacob…yet she still chooses Edward (this is not a spoiler, please). But in Eclipse, you start to see a glimpse of Bella with a conscience, and her whole future decision of becoming one of those “bloodsuckers”. And I even started to thaw (pun intented) to Edward, because you realize it’s just as hard for him. But I’m still on Team Jacob.
This is my least favorite, but it is the most eye-opening for the character development that have become the saga of Bella and Edward. Onto Breaking Dawn!
