According to this article, EVERY TEENAGE GIRL IN THE WORLD IS LOOKING "For their Edward"

Dude.. really? One of the stupidest things I've ever read.  This crazy chick who wrote the article needs to calm down, ITS A FREAKING BOOK, A BOOK! A BOOK MADE FOR YOUR ENTERTAINMENT! YOUR NOT SUPPOSED TO TAKE IT SERIOUSLY, YOU KNOW WHY? ITS A FREAKING BOOK!!!! Geez, Its obivious Edward and Bella dont have a healthy relationship! All that Edward ditching Bella, leaving Bella, hurting Bella, ITS FOR ENTERTAINMENT! Now who wants to read a story about a happy teenage couple, With a great relationship with no conflict? Uh, NO ONE!!!

.
"She could have made Bella a stronger heroine for girls to look up to,
could've made her less of a doormat and more of an independent young
woman. Instead she writes Bella as a girl who is clumsy and desperately
seeks the attention of the attractive, broody young man in her class.
The young man that, despite her better judgement AND his insistence

that she stay away, eventually controls her whole life."


IT IS A BOOK! What? The writer is awful because she didnt try to change young girls lives with the power and popularity of her novel!? 



The way that the books are phrased make it seem like abuse is ok, and I
can't condone it. He yanks Bella around on various occasions, even
ignores her wishes and/or protests. If anyone has taken Psych at any
point, you know the patterns of abusive relationships. This is a
TEXTBOOK case of an abusive relationship. You may say that I'm reading
too far into it, that the twilight series is just a guilty pleasure
read for funsies.

Its supposed to be read for "funsies" only. Like I said over 5 times, ITS A FREAKING BOOK!!!!


Okay, End Rant.
