TRUE LOVE?
After knowing him from afar for only a few days, Bella decides she is in "love" with Edward. However this shallow excuse for love is never explained beyond Bella's fascination with Edward's good looks. Let's break it down into how many times these attributes are described in the first book alone:
⌦Face: 24
⌦Voice: 20
⌦Eyes: 17
⌦Movement: 11
⌦Smile: 10
⌦Teeth: 8
⌦Muscles: 7
⌦Skin: 7 (Note: This only contains accounts of Edward's skin being beautiful. I didn't count references to it as "pale," "cold," or "white." If I had, this number would be about ten times larger.)
⌦Iron Strength or Limbs: 5
⌦Breath: 4
⌦Scent: 4
⌦Laughter: 3
⌦Chest: 2
All of these are mentioned (numerously), but his personality is never listed as a reason for her love. Bella does not, in fact, ever make note of his personality. Her only describing words of him are as follows, along with the number of times each word appears.
⌦Hard- 109
⌦Angel- 84
⌦Cold- 65
⌦Perfect - 59
⌦White- 52
⌦Soft- 48
⌦Beautiful- 36
⌦Cool- 33
⌦Pale- 30
⌦Stone- 29
⌦Marble- 9
⌦Dazzling- 8
⌦Wry- 6
⌦Statue- 7
⌦Flawless- 6
⌦Godlike- 6
⌦Adonis- 2
Sounds like a pretty deep relationship, doesn't it?
Still don't sound convinced?
Quote from somewhere
"Harry potter is an amazing series. It is witty, imaginative, entertaining, thought provoking and beautifully written. A lot of us, including me grew up with it, and the story grew with us. A person of any age can read Harry Potter and get completely wrapped up in the story. Mainly, it is the way the story is written, it is an entirely new world, all created and every question answered by Ms. Rowling.
As for Twilight, It is very poorly written. Stephanie Meyer uses the same phrases and word choices over and over, and creates characters who have low self esteem and are self deprecating. Her stories lack imagination. Where Rowling creates an entire new world and creatively introduces information in a way that astounds us, Meyer introduces information in completely predictable and redundant ways, and offers nothing new. Instead of creating a new world with interesting characters rooted in Greek mythology and folklore, she decides to have vampires present in an American high school. How innovative.
Twilight is a teen fad- Harry Potter is an amazing piece of literature that will withstand the test of time."
Personal Conclusion?
Edward's a stalker, pedophile, and seriously needs to kill Bella or something.
"Wanna waste time? Read Twilight"
SM has a very unoriginal story in my opinion. Most of the stuff was pretty repetitive and could already be found in mangas and animes.
"It'a a logic thing. Twi-tards don't get it."
