Re: 24 OP Cont'd
I don't think Twilight is perfet either, not at all (especially after Eclipse, which messed soooo many things up). It's very annoying, even for me when 'Twihards' say it's better than everything, so I can imagine how someone, who doesn't even like it can be annoyed by that. But I got really attached to this book. :)
I agree with you about how Bella is someone anyone could easily relate to - I lived through everything in the book just like her thanks to this, I guess. But I can't really agree about her being a Mary Sue. Truth be told, I had many doubts when I started the books, and I started to like it when I realized how real Bella is. I think she is a very honest character, true to herself and her problems. And oh yes, she has many flaws, but all those feel natural. Yes, that was the first thing that came to my mind. Bella may be an ordinary girl, but she is natural, and I think this is quite rare.
As for Edward - he is idolized by both the fans and Bella, but what makes him interesting for is how, after 108 years, he still has things he couldn't grow out of and has yet to learn.
The beginning of their relationship is quite troublesome, too, I agree. At first, I was really-really surprised and annoyed, "why the hell is Edward all over Bella?" But I think her personality played a big role in him falling in love with her (and If you think she doesn't have a personality I can see that you couldn't see where it came from).
I just love how all the... characters are kinda true, honest and I think they are interesting. As for plot, there really isn't any, it's based on emotional development, which in New Moon is especially beautiful in my opinion. I agree about the "grammar", too, though it mostly didn't annoy me, just sometimes.
I don't think Twilight is a masterpiece or anything like that, but I do believe it's an outstanding piece, a quite honest and raw love story. I love it because it has moved me, emotionally, several times.
But I respect your opinion, and I'm really grateful you explained it! I grow so attached to these books I can't really look at it as an outsider anymore.
Don't worry about staying anonymous, that's completely fine :)
