I am not sure how many parts this review will be, just so you know. I am writing whenever I have the chance, and whenever something pops into my head about it.
So, Bella has met the Cullens. She is enthralled by their beauty and grace, and naturally, gravitates toward them. Soon, the human race itself becomes a drag for her. She wraps her life around Edward in particular, which first stems from his initial terse reaction to her. Edward is a vampire, of course, and vampires like blood
Edward is immediately attracted to Bella, not only for her blood, but for her physical person as well. This is an interesting dilemma, of course. Bella is just a human, and thinks that his avoidance of her is brought on by arrogance and pride. Aw, give the Vamp some slack, Bella
The secret is soon out, as Edward pushes himself to restrain from sucking her blood. He begins to master himself. The Cullen family is unlike any other vampire family (or coven, as they are called). They have trained themselves to eat a diet of animal blood, instead of parasiting off humans. Friendly vampires. Bella just happened to be a little too delicious smelling, which threw poor Ed over the edge.
Anyway, here’s an interesting thought. Throughout the entire saga, Edward in particular, is building up his tolerance to Bella, as they grow closer and closer. His nature is to suck blood, and his particular temptation is Bella. How familiarly this touches on our own human and sinful nature, and how each of us is prone to certain sins and temptations. I will get to more of this later, as the saga review progresses.
Anyway, short and sweet tonight. I have a human husband I need to love
