TA Meeting - The Romance of Twilight

Sorry I am so dreadfully behind, here is some of what we will discuss at our meeting.

We will discuss the characters of Bella and Edward, and of course their relationship.

Here are some sample questions to get thinking about (no posting discussion on these questions):

• What makes Bella such a likeable character, easy to relate too?
• Does she have any other interests than Edward?
• Why is she so at home with the Cullens?
• What is so appealing about Edward?
• Why is his character so "conflicted"?
• How did SM create such a magnetic relationship? Is it here writing style, the story itself, the compelling characters?
• Is their relationship reflective of a normal first love?
• If Edward has "imprinted" on Bella, has she done the same, in human terms, with him?

I have more, but haven't written them down. I would love you to add your own questions here and I will add them to my discussion.

Of course we will also discuss all of our favorite Twilight moments that blew us away, had our tummies flipping, made us gasp, sigh, giggle, and cry. You have two assignment to get ready for our meeting:

1. Everyone needs to spend some time in the books. You just can't recreate how you felt about Twilight without actually reading it. So when picking your favorite "moments" do some research. You will be glad you did!

2. Everyone has to agree that the Prom is one of the many beautifully romantic parts. It's now time for everyone to read the Extended Prom Remix, from SM. Here is the link.

Feel free to respond to this moment on this post (But not any other romantic moments, kay?)

I mentioned on another post, in a comment, that I had a surprise. I found a copy of this prom-remix that I somehow saved as a word file. So surprise, if you would like a copy to insert in your Twilight book, just email me.
