twilight subtle white supremacy creeps in again….
we finally are at the part where alice has brought back a man who was born like renesmee, and they are specifically dark skinned and from south america and the TOTALLY unnecessary detail we get about this guy’s human mother? “My sister was Pire. Our parents named her after the snow on the mountains because of her fair skin.” GIRL

OH
“Goodbye Jacob, my brother… my son.”
I just let out a public laugh on the bus…, holy shit
for the record this is supposed to be a solemn moment. sincerely delivered

ok siobhan, one of the irish vampires, is like the only character in this series who is fat, and on page 714 in a tense moment of confrontation between the volturi and the cullens & allies, we get this line: “He stopped when he was in front of Siobhan’s massive form.” took me RIGHT out of the moment girl wtf. stephenie

girl………….i knew it’d be bad when the international vampires started showing up but the way stephenie describes the amazonian women….
“It wasn’t just their eccentric clothes that made them seem wild but everything about them, from their restless crimson eyes to their sudden, darting movements. I’d never met any vampires less civilized.” HUH

“if I hadn’t seen him undressed, I would’ve sworn there was nothing more beautiful than Edward in his khakis and pale beige pullover”

i often find bella’s sweating alternatives worth noting, like:
“Drat Jacob for making everything perfect *this* way.”

controversial?… i think it was the right decision to split breaking dawn into two movies. the moment of imprinting/bella’s heart changing is literally at the halfway point of this massive book

Edward just referred to Emmett and Jasper as “Em” and “Jazz”— JAZZ???

first ever series mention of the word “sex” on page 99 of book 4 🙌🙌🙌

“I half-smiled, then raised my free hand—it didn’t tremble now—and placed it over his heart. White on white; we matched, for once.”

STEPH! GIRL! DO you hear how you SOUND right now! lmaoooooo
