If you don't like vampires, why make Edward the Mary Sue of all vampire heroes ever? Why not make them (all of them) the villains?
Hmmm... yes and no.
Edward is less Mary Sue and more the repressed overly anal scrapbooking soccer mom.

I'm enjoying the inappropriate giddy joy of the tweeners. There are so few opportunities to be insanely giddy, and 12-14 is such a perfect age for it, especially if you have a cohort to be insanely giddy with.

Because books.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
He's probably calling Dan Radcliffe and saying, "I think my crazies have your crazies beat, mate."

Aims, however, um, avid a fan you may be, lusting after his sweet young body is one thing. Presenting yourself, bleeding, as an appetizer is another.

It's nice to know where my crazy ranks. So often, I haven't the slightest.
