The first time I read Twilight was the end of June 2008, so once I finished that, I could go straight to reading both New Moon and Eclipse without the wait. I only have to wait for Breaking Dawn , but it'll be easy because it's fun to read all the speculations and the wait, for me, was only about a ...

I don't know for sure. But I keep thinking that there are going to be ramifactions to the scenes in Eclipse and the other two, that are between Edward, Jacob and Bella. However, I still think there is a chance still that it could be lightly connected to any of the romances in Arthurian mythology. I ...

Thanks to the Twilight series , I am about to begin reading Wuthering Heights . I'm also reading, but have had hiatus on, The Mayor of Castorbridge by Thomas Hardy. Am not very enthusiastic about the Hardy novel though. I hope Wuthering Heights is up to my expectations, which are high. At least I ha...

Tell me about it. The people who first suggested Twilight to me went all crazy about Edward and how "cute" he was. :roll: That was one of the factors for why I took so long to even try reading Twilight . People just have different reasons for liking a certain character, I think, and how "cute" Edwar...

What about Arthurian mythology? The famous and tragic love triangle between Lancelot, Guenevere and Arthur is like that between Edward, Bella and Jacob. I know that there are many variations of the story, but people know the basic outline of the love story of Lancelot and Guenevere, who is wed to Ar...

1. Can you see why Bella is afraid to marry Edward? Is it something that would affect your decision to get married at a young age? Yes to both. It would definitely make me more wary of the decisions I make because I wouldn't want to repeat the same mistakes as my parents. 2. The intimacy level betw...

2. How did you feel about the kiss? Were you shocked like Bella, or did you see it coming? I was extremely shocked. This is where I really began to dislike Jacob because he went to far this time. You don't just kiss a girl because you want to. ugh... boys... . sorry but i totally disagree! as much ...

1. What do you think about the honesty the boys show each other? I thought it was nice to see Edward and Jacob have a civil conversation for once, and without Bella in the middle forcing them to be civil to each other. 2. Are you surprised to see Edward admitting his jealousy and showing less patie...

I'm not very original when I say that I like Edward too. That doesn't mean I abhor Jacob. I like Edward because he is not , in my opinion, unrealistic. He has emotions too. Just like any human would. And another thing I liike about him is that he is always such a gentleman, unlike the boys nowadays(...

I sure know when to join a thread. :wink: Still, it's better late than never. 1. Were you surprised at how undiscouraged Jacob remained, despite Bella's assertions that she loves only Edward? No. This is because Jacob always seemed so persistent and sure that one day Edward was going to scare or hur...
