The Sky Series

Oh. Em. Gee.

100% hottie!!

Who else? Edward Cullen, of course! =)

Twilight was the book every talked about. It was published in 2005, and I didn't read it until a few month ago. Anyways, I always wondered who started the fad. Everyday, I'd hear in the halls: "Have you read Twilight yet? Oh my God. Edward is SO perfect and hot!! You know Jacob? I don't like him, I mean, what the heck???".

Every. Day. Urgh!

So, the main reason I wanted to read the book was not because of how perfect and hot and awesome Edward is, but more because I wanted to know what made this book so appealing to everyone all of a sudden.

Of course, I should have known, it was Edward Cullen.

I mean, it's a book. I love the book (remember my addiction to things? Yeah. I loved Twilight) and everything, but the main guy character kind of sets unmeetable expectations for all the other guys out there, not that I particually care too much, since, Edward is, as we all know: perfect.

Pfft. Bella gets all the luck.

Then, the second and third book came out: New Moon and Eclipse. Woo-pee! Jacob Black comes into the picture. I never liked Jacob (I never read New Moon). He's disturbing Edward and Bella's perfect relationship! I was really, really mad for a while.

Until, useful as the internet's always been to me, I went and googled a few key words.

Let's just say I changed my mind. Try putting Jacob and Edward on the same plane. The both like Bella. They both should get equal chances on making her like them.

After I realized this, I also realized Bella was the one I was annoyed at. SHE LIKES THE BOTH! Why???

I guess it's to make the book more exciting and sell-able. That makes sense, but I (and a lot of the people I know who read the book) tend to get worked up over the realisticlly portrayed characters created by a wonderful dream of Stephenie Meyer.

Why can't we all have wonderfully creative dreams like that?

We'd all be rich by now. Darn.

Huh. Maybe that's why. The world would run out of money and trees to make money, so we can't be all rich...

AH. My brain hurts!!!
