aesmael: (haircut)
Everything I read about this story suggests it is awful. Terribly written, misogynistic, endorsing of controlling, stalking behaviour in the name of True Love, racist, colonialist... pretty darn -ist in general.

The story may be dreadful, but I have been enjoying reading other people snark about its flaws. Especially [livejournal.com profile] cleolinda's recaps:
Twilight
New Moon
Eclipse
Breaking Dawn part 1, part 2, part 3.
Midnight Sun chapters 1-6, chapters 7-12

Normally I do not like to apply the term Mary Sue to an original cast member in canon, but in this case I want to make an exception. Yeah, Bella and Edward and what the hey, Rand al'Thor too.

Off to read Growing Up Cullen now.

I'm shocked at how popular this series is after hearing so much negative stuff about it D: And how I've read a few ppl on my flist talking about how it's like the epitomy of romance or something D:
