I am in love with Edward. I want an Edward for myself plzkthanx.
I like Jacob so far - but i'm going to start New Moon later on today, so whether i'll like him after that I dont know because my friends stopped liking him in that book _________________

I've read them all! I was so jealous... I swear this book was like exactly the type of vampire novel i've always wanted to write- it was just perfect.
Edward is obviously freaking sexy, but after Eclipse I really was like Jacob!!!!
Unfortunately we won't get really sexy Jacob until the third movie comes out
As far as i've seen, the casting looks pretty good.
AND I live in Phoenix! (Well Tempe- but whatever). And they SHOULD be filming the end scene in Sky Harbor Airport, if they do it the right way!!! I really hope they do- if they cut out the whole Phoenix part it will be SO STUPID. I want to be an extra!!!!!!!!! _________________ <3 Jourdan

I've only just started with the third book, but I looooved Jacob in New Moon. He quickly became my favourite character.
I felt so sorry for him though (spoiler warning, Elle!!)
Spoiler:
by the end of NM when he and Bella kinda "broke up". Poor guy..
What do you think of the cast so far?? I think that Robert Pattinson will be a perfect Edward and I can see Kirsten Stewart as Bella. I also like whom they've chosen for Esme. I know her from Grey's Anatomy and I believe that she will be great! _________________
ah! twilight! =)
i looove twilight.
& i am a diehard jacob fan.
yeah, edwards great & all.
but i fell in love with jacob after reading new moon.
i cant wait for the movies.
i still havent figured out how i feel about the cast though.
sometimes i think they fit perfectly, but then i find myself wondering how the heck they're going to work! haha.
I dont like Jacob anymore. New Moon was good but not great - I got bored alot in it. & then when he kissed her in Eclipse, what a jerk! I liked how he told her he loved her though, that was sweet. But when he kissed her, and wouldnt let her go, uh plz!die. _________________

I'm afraid that I don't agree with you, Elle, when it comes to Jacob and Edward... sorry!!
Maybe it's the fact that I'm in my mid-twenties already and see things like friendships, relationships and family from a different POV, but I was never thrilled by Bella's relationship with Edward. It's simply unhealthy!! And I don't mean only for the ovious reason, the human-vampire-problem. Bella is prepared to leave just everything behind to be with Edward: her family, her friends, her human life. I don't think that she is old and mature enough to really see the consquences this choice includes: it starts with rather trivial things like never feeling any real (physical) warmth again, never being able to taste food again and leads to more important things like never being able to have kids of your own, never being able to have a real family, never being able to see her old friends again, at least not in the same way, or her dad and her mom, never experiencing the different stages of life, never getting old.
That's a very, very high price to pay for a teenage crush, in my opinion. Yes, I believe that it's a teenage crush on Bella's part or, as Jacob put it, a very dangerous obsession. She's already having doubts by the end of Eclipse and I bet she'd regret it someday. She's too young and too immature to take such a tough decision... a decision that will affect her until the end of her days.
I'm not saying that Jacob is the one and only for her... who can say that at the age of eighteen (same goes for her and Edward though). I think though that she could have a much healthier relationship with him. She could be somewhat carefree and, even more important, she could be human. She could have kids and a "real" family if she wanted to and she wouldn't have to worry about her own or her family and friends' security.
So yep, I really hope that she'll make up her mind in the last book and choose Jacob instead of Edward. It's not that I don't like Edward but taking all the consequences into account, Jacob is the far better option! _________________
I just bought myself two of the books after seeing so much stuff about them. I've got Twilight and New Moon. That's the right order, yeah? Here's hoping I find the time to read them!

I hope you'll find some time to read the books, Ash. They're so addictive!! I finished Eclipse a few days ago and I was so annoyed that I couldn't read the fourth book right away. I'm such an impatient person and August (that's when the last book will be published) seems like forever to me *sigh* _________________

Yeah, absolutely!! I read all three of them in a row and it was sooo hard to accept that there isn't a fourth book yet.
I'm curious to hear what you think about the other two and the Edward/Bella/Jacob triangle thing. _________________
