I always had the feeling that a lot of side caracters were more interesting then the protagonists we were stuck with

Yeah, I thought reading a story about Carlisle through the years might have been interesting since he had lived much longer than everyone else in the main cast and had a past with the Volturi. Or Alice, who who ostracized as a human for her psychic abilities and was thrown into an asylum after she had a vision of her father murdering her mother. Or Roaslie who was revealed in like a couple of sentences to have been gang raped by her fiance and his friends and then murdered all of them in her wedding dress (and then fell in love with Emmett because he reminded her of the son she would never be able to have as a vampire. Creeeeepy)

Maybe it is for the best. The series already had a lot of unfortunate implications. There is no way thing like rape and mental ilness would be handeld well.

Fair point though in Alice's case she wasn't actually mentally ill, she was just institutionalized because her father wanted to get rid of her and everyone already thought she was a little unbalanced anyway (since none of them believed her visions were real) so her being put in an asylum seemed plausible to them. Buuuut, other patients in the asylum who were actually mentally ill probably would have been described as well and I can see that not working out well. Maybe if it was written by someone else

"Maybe if it was written by someone else" describes the whole Twilight series for me.

I read it as a psychological horror about a girl who escapes into this vampire romance fantasy as a means of coping with her abusive relationship and I like it because it's really creepy. I would love to see an actual horror writer do it.

This made me laugh.

I kept wishing SM would address some of the genuinely interesting points she (probably unwittingly) raised--like Edward's existential crisis, aka how EFFING BORING his life must've been before he met Bella, and his obsession with her was based in part on his terror of being alone. And also how he gets off on protecting her because it allows him to sublimate his desire to kill her. She did have some great ideas that were never explored.
