Reasons why Twilight is Amazing
1. Stephanie Meyer gives good descriptions of characters
Stephanie Meyer goes into great detail about all her characters using strong references about their descriptions with their romantic characteristics. She uses powerful words to help describe Edward and Jacob’s characters, how a werewolf and vampire and different beings and how they function with and without each other. From Bella’s aspect, Meyer defines Edward’s, and even Jacob’s “sexually appealing” bodies and their distinct characteristics. Edward’s pale and glittering skin, cold to the touch, drop dead gorgeous face, his smile, nose, eyes and especially his body are all attractive. And Meyer makes it known that vampires are meant to appeal to humans, since their main source of food is human blood. Likewise, with Jacob, Meyer defines Jacobs to having warm skin, gorgeous eyes, good looking body, strong arms, and very muscular in general. She builds these men up to fit Bella’s standards, since Bella is also made out to be very attractive herself. Overall, I think that Meyer enjoys writing about attractive people and writing fantasies for everyday girls of America….and who can blame her????
2. Stephanie Meyer can write, FOR REAL
Yes, some may think that her writing is boring and similar to many other romantic writers of this new vampire generation. HOWEVER, why has she sold so many books? It can’t be because of her descriptive characters or her wording that makes girls 12-however old fall head over heels for Edward, OR Jacob. She has to have some skill to sell millions of copies of her Twilight Saga and make a movie in less than 4 years since the book has been released. Come on, that is pretty impressive to do as a writer and not many people have been able to do that.
3. The Twilight Saga has plot
Clearly, there is a Saga because she had to keep writing books because people kept buying them because they were amazing! Of course Bella and Edward had a conflict about getting married and turning into a vampire and she would never leave the series hanging without a full explanation. Meyer’s faithful readers were determined to figure out what was going to happen in the end, who Bella would chose, if she became a vampire, what happens to Jacob. There is an infinite amount of questions that she poked into her readers’ heads and she made it clear it needed to be done in four books. She couldn’t place thoughts in her reader’s heads without answering them! Then she wouldn’t be a good author, but she did fulfill her reader’s desires by answering questions and concluding the series so everyone was satisfied.
4. It’s okay to have flaws
One of Bella’s flaws in Twilight was her clumsiness. Yes, Stephanie Meyer does try to make her characters perfect, but being clumsy is perfectly normal. Not everyone can miss every crack in the sidewalk or miss a step when walking up the stairs. Being clumsy shows how Bella is still human, when she is surrounded by beings that are perfect. Bella’s personality also is capable of being clumsy since she is very down to earth and she can find beauty in horrible flaws, like drinking blood. Being clumsy is OKAY, and being human is fine too, unless you are endlessly in love with a vampire.
