And I agree with Christina, Stephanie Meyer certainly did something right!

The way I figure it, Meyer must have hit some trigger within us to sell a gazillion copies. And, as a writer, I think that's worth pondering.Christa Allanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12620389675433700944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2037419790609319671.post-33604470625306945412012-11-22T21:59:15.126-05:002012-11-22T21:59:15.126-05:00Great blog.

I stopped ...All right, you've got me thinking. I stopped at the first book. Bella drove me insane. I did feel like she was a blank slate waiting for Edward to do something. But maybe she had a plan after all. ;) Still not reading the books though. But maybe the movies now....Lynn Raye Harrishttp://www.lynnrayeharris.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2037419790609319671.post-49717142519755111652012-11-21T07:43:13.987-05:002012-11-21T07:43:13.987-05:00Megan, this is why I love you so much.

I'll have to reconsider now, based on your arguments, but I did have to stop reading after the second book. It was just so anti-feminist to me (and I'm not even a feminist!!) how she just always waited around for someone to rescue her. I was like, rescue yourself, girl!!<br /><br />Now, if you wanna talk badass heroine, I could go on all day about Elena Gilbert....Brenda Janowitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02341902606434073240noreply@blogger.com
