I think I may have fallen in love with Edward Cullen (the vampire for those who don’t know), not the actor in the film but the character in the book. He doesn’t look like the actor (what’s his name?) I imagine him slightly different – that’s the joy of books one part I enjoy the most is being able to visual the characters and scenes allowing them to play out in your mind as your eyes follow the words on the pages. Stephanie Meyer seems to have a real skill with her words, to me a good author can bring the words to life.
There is so much I love about the book but one quote that sticks out in my mind is the one below.
When life offers you a dream so far beyond any of your expectations, it’s not reasonable to grieve when it comes to an end.
Bella Swan, Twilight
What are your thoughts on the quote? Do you think it is reasonable to grieve when an unexpected dream comes to an end? Or should you not just rejoice in the memories of the good times that the dream brought? I’m with the second option. What about you? Would like to hear your thoughts.
I'm with you on the second one there Lu. I'm not in to the Twilight 'Vampire' movies had my fill of them back in the 80's. Vampires were scary and mysterious and not pretty boys. Sorry, but that is how I feel.
ReplyDeleteOh but Edward is pretty *sighs*
ReplyDeleteI agree with ya on everything. I also LOVE LOVE Looooove Edward Cullen, but not the actor. Edward the character makes my heart flutter and lakes me wish my bf was a vampire as well! LOL :p (ok, that's a little extreme, but you know what I mean, right?)
ReplyDeleteAnd about the quote.. I think the 2nd option is best. Yes, it's a shame when it ends, but you've had an amazing experience as well then, and I think you should smile about the things that happened and not cry because the good times have passed.
I don't like twilight but I DO love that quote, never heard it before, it's so true!
ReplyDeleteI thought it was a great quote...love when a book gives a quote that really stands out to you :)
