I actually LOVED Edward in the first book. First book, he was this sexy, bad-ass vampire. <br /><br />BUT, as the series continued,I thought Stephanie Meyer completely changed everything I loved about his character. He became very old seeming. He never wanted to let Bella have any fun. And he didn't seem to trust her to ever take care of herself. I know she was always being hunted by vampires, but I thought he was over-protective to a fault. <br /><br />I actually didn't catch any of this the first time I read through cause I was all caught up in the epic romance between he and Bella and I read the books super fast. But, when I went back and re-read out loud to my daughter, it was SO obvious I couldn't believe I didn't see it the first time. Very annoying. Read it with an eye to character consistency, instead of the romance of it, and I'll bet you'll see what I mean. <br /><br />BUT--even if you don't and you love Edward forever, that's cool!! People talk all kinds of crap (including me sometimes) but the Twilight series is always a fun read. <br /><br />Great choices here. I honestly could've gone on all night with this question. Lots of great couples in movies, TV, books...Awesome question this week!!<br /><br /><br />Tamarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04070551912944266954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5061290982905427353.post-49439088392017184962013-02-11T12:22:17.234-05:002013-02-11T12:22:17.234-05:00Some of my favorite couples are from old Hollywood...Some of my favorite couples are from old Hollywood, like Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks, Sr., Greta Garbo and John Gilbert, and Rudy Valentino and Natacha Rambova.
