Bella being stronger than Edward- Hot.

Got to the famous loch-ness monster line, and even though Jacob is still annoying, “Nessy” is a cute nickname for a ridiculously named child. (Though thank goodness it was a girl because Edward Jacob is even worse somehow.)

Jacob and Leah could have been a thing! Just everything about this is so messed up. The alphas forcing commands, Leah’s bizarre commentary on being a genetic dead end, Jacob and Rosalie being terrible to each other, Jacob’s immaturity, the fact that we are spiraling to imprinting on an infant. Please, put me back in Bella’s brain!

One thing I appreciate about Twilight is that there is vampire lore and some thought is put into how things work, but was not expecting that the altered chromosome count of vampires seen in Discovery of Witches potentially originated here! Also, how much personal science equipment does Carlisle own? Or is he mooching hospital equipment?

Becoming my “favorite” question for literature. Does this book hate women? It seems like we could be getting a Rosalie/Bella relationship building moment and instead we get Jacob yelling at Leah. Poor Leah! Also, my Wolfsong is gay Twilight werewolf fanfic theory is only being more confirmed. I’m dnfing the next book that contains the word “alpha” because I can’t stand this forced to follow dynamic.

K, that honeymoon was so much more tame than I thought it’d be. Actual sex- fade to black. The amount of furniture breaking- not unsustainable. Not sure to be relieved or disappointed. Now, we’re in Jacob’s section and it’s bad, but much like most of this entire series, not as bad as bad I feared it would be.

Wedding thoughts: Jacob is the WORST, so glad everyone else recognizes that even if Bella doesn’t. Book Charlie is inferior to movie Charlie, and it is continually disappointing. I was worried for a second that Bella wasn’t going to have an “I look pretty moment”, but she did! The sexual tension between her and Edward is ridiculous. This cursed sex scene better happen soon, so we can move on!

I read books 1-3, Amber Spyglass was reserved on Libby so detour. Edward look, Bella doesn’t get to escape the marriage rituals, so neither do you.
