r/twilight

I recently finished the entirety of twilight (books not the movies) and I didn't like it too much, but one of the bearable bits for me was Leah and Jessica. to me they seem like actual teens?

like Jessica talks a lot and she's really into her physical appearance and she gets jealous of her friend, theres a guy she likes but he rejects her and she has similar interests and talking patterns as me

and Leah had motivation and in my opinion was rightfully upset at sam and I loved her motivations for joining Jacob and I liked that she was selfish and hotheaded and I felt myself in her.

to me they were a million times more interesting than Bella and I talked to my sister about them and she told me she didn't like them, and I asked why she said that 'both of them are really jealous and have malicious/selfish intent behind their actions' and like didn't Bella do that to???? like she was selfish and jealous like a lot????

Well, Edward said the vampires like speed.

Só why not Ride motorcycles? They wont be killed anyway if anything goes wrong

Now hear me out, this came to me randomly in a dream.

Let me list you a couple of reasons why I think it might have been a casual Sunday family walk spot for them:

1. They are immortal (well if someone doesn’t twist their neck lol) so even tho it’s dangerous up there, they cannot injure themselves and die.

2. They are always cold, so the temperature wouldn’t matter.

3. They are incredibly fast, so it would take them a couple of minutes to run there, spider monkey style.

4. They could have privacy and sparkle all they could want up there as the chances of meeting someone on the peak are very low. Even though Mount Everest is actually notoriously crowded with frozen bodies and waiting lines of climbers now. Imagine Edward standing at the summit, sparkling brilliantly, only to make awkward eye contact with a freezing guy named Gary from Ohio who is wearing 14 layers of North Face gear. Edward would have to read Gary's thoughts just being like, "Am I hallucinating a diamond teenager?". Like let’s be real, who would believe Gary if he survived from the hike and told anyone anyway. They would think he is still adjusting and overly exhausted.

5. They have time, so eventually over the years I think they would get bored enough to a point, to be at least curious about going.

The only thing I’m wondering about here is how would they feed themselves. Yes, there are wild animals they could hunt lower, but on the upper Mountain it’s a dead zone where apparently (yes, I did my research to my shit post) only permanent resident at that height is the Himalayan Jumping Spider. The mental image of Edward Cullen tracking a tiny, fuzzy spider across the ice because he's starving is inherently hilarious, but it wouldn't do much for his appetite.

So I think a trip there could potentially make them less “vegetarian” and absolutely snack on the tourists, but it would be like drinking a human slushie. At that altitude, climbers are severely dehydrated, suffering from hypoxia and freezing. Their blood would be sluggish and cold. Edward would probably complain that Gary from Ohio "tastes like frostbite and altitude sickness."

Now that I think about it, I don’t know why I specifically thought of Mount Everest. Those guys could have easily been on the most random places at all. So anyway, if you ever walk across something tall, just remember that Edward Cullen was probably sitting there at one point having a little “there’s a possibilityyyy” moment up there. LMAO

I must have seen these 15 times now and I don’t know if that’s silly. How many times have you all watched the Twilight Saga? Which of the films are your favourite? Mines Twilight and Breaking Dawn part 1.

Has anyone ever attended? Are the free components enough to enjoy the experience or do you recommend the events that cost money and purchase of tickets in advance?

I want to attend this year but want to get a better idea of the event and what I should expect.

Those of you that have attended, please share all the details!

ive been a fan ever since the twilight movie and i first watched it around 2014 ( i was too young when it was released 2008 lol)

and now im reading the book almost 10+ years later and let me say, wow they did cut out SO much of the “development” bella and edward had.

i have so much to add on but i still like the movie, and i LOVE the books

I’m sure this has been asked before, but what if Carlisle immediately put together that the baby required human blood and that’s why renegade was sucking Bella dry? Would Bella have deteriorated at all? I’m assuming her ribs would still break due to how fast the baby grew in a month and still be bruised, but she wouldn’t have been starving for 13 days and maybe Edward would have been more present and happy? The fact that it took Jacob to realize this over seven vampires 100+ years old still makes no sense to me but what are your thoughts

I'm a librarian and occasionally I get to recommend books to middle school and high school students.

Right now I'm looking at a book request from a 13 year old that likes romance, mystery, Hunger Games, etc.

I'm thinking this is a prime candidate for a Twilight book.

My middle school students are pretty sure they are not ready for it, and I agree. I want them to discover the series at the right time so that they can enjoy it.

What age is a good age to try the Twilight books?

(Not movies, just books).

My husband and I are going to Olympic national park in September and while there, I want to find time to see the Forks sign, the twilight museum, and La Push. We aren’t going just for twilight, but it’s definitely an added bonus that I’m super excited about. Has anyone been there? What are some twilight things to see? We only have 3 nights, so trying to prioritize! (I know the movies were mainly in Oregon and Canada).

Starting another reread and was curious about people's opinions on which to start with, Twilight or Midnight Sun? Does it change for you between rereads? I'm starting with Midnight Sun this time around; something about having his thoughts about her in recent memory just colors her character so much brighter.

To be clear, I don't mean "which is better" or "which do you prefer in general." Just which do you like starting with and why?
