Highly disturbing that she gave it 4 stars, but perhaps even more disturbing that she said 'Bella was a good protagonist because she is a sort of everygirl. She saw herself in the same way that I think most teenage girls see themselves--as inconsequential and common. Meyer indulges in the Cinderella fantasy and makes common, awkward Bella become, almost excessively, the center of male attention. She's horribly accident-prone, which allowed for Meyer to create plenty of damsel-in-distress moments. Fortunately, she's also independent, intelligent, observant, and heroic in a way that I think most readers could imagine themselves being heroic. So ultimately, she's an empowering character.'
Not sure how relevant this is, but I just thought I would share it with this group and see what you thought of it. I don't know about you but if I had to describe Bella in four words, I would say: stupid, clumsy, pathetic and uninteresting.

*Gags*
People's stupidity amazes me sometimes, I swear. Just because Meyer SAYS Bella is intelligent, observant, and heroic does not automatically make her thus. This is especially true if an author opts to play the tell-don't-show game. In order to note a character as being heroic, a reader must see said character acting heroic. (Heroism does not equate to stupidity, either, since I know fans of this vile tripe would not hesitate to scream "BUT BELLA WENT TO SAVE HER MOMMY IN THE FIRST BOOK!" Since, you know, rushing head long into danger by oneself is the epitome of being a hero...if you're a raging suicidal moron.)
Likewise, if a character is supposed to be an intellectual, we must see them acting as such. Intelligence isn't only demonstrated by reading classic novels and supposedly acing all one's classes.
To make these qualities realistic - or even believable - in a fictional character, an author must display that intelligence and observational skill in play. Such could result from the character in question figuring out a crucial unanswered lifesaving question and issue which appears in the plot, the true identity or weakness of the antagonist or the location of a missing character in peril. Does Meyer do such? The answer to that question is not just "no," but rather "hell, no!"
And, even further, what's more irritating is that a reader of this moronic series actually has the audacity to claim Bella the Tard can simultaneously be the damsel-in-distress AND a heroic character. If such two depictions were isolated moments of action, then yes, I could agree. However, Bella is perpetually screwing up and in great need of rescue. So, if a character continually plays Dork-Face, how in the hell can they be seen as heroic to any degree?
And, lastly..."independent?"
I think my eyes just started bleeding.
INDEPENDENT? Really? This connotation is being given to a chick who essentially engages in suicidal behavior because her idgit vampy boyfriend bails on her? A character who practically loses all sense of self and opts to immerse her complete identity in being Edtard's girlfriend? Oh, and let us not forget the fact that this brainless airhead also decided to give up her own humanity just so that she could forever frolic in the fields with Edward the pale skinned wonder. No. That is almost the text book definition of co-dependence, not independence!




My friend wants to be Bella, and yet, she is a total copycat of me. O.o Now that's just insulting"
i wanna Be inside the book so I can MEET! BELLA! i hate that bitch even if she is fictional she's a disgrace to all woman in any vampire/human romance series,

im suprised she survived that long with her mom.

whoa. that's really close together...can you add some needed spaces??

what kind a name is that?! no one in 21st century will name her child like that! (of course before "twilight fever" engulf this world)

I think it's a beautiful name.
I just hate the fact that now, my middle name reminds me of her... >_< although it's not Isabella, it's 2 letters off. But still...

I think there is nothing wrong with your middle name, i just don't like how "isabella" and "swan" be amalgamated. and how about bella's father name? charlie swan?
@ Acheron: haha, so hilarious :-)


I'm not sure if the "d'oh!" look on Dip Tard's face is a result of the actual character's patheticness, or the seriously limited-to-nonexistent acting skills of Stewart. Probably both, no doubt.

It's so utterly absurd and transparent of what the author was trying to do, it's damn laughable!


I think, too, it was just another way to make Miss Perfect Mary Sue that much more perfect-er. *Insert eye roll.*

widow's peak
chocolate brown eyes
lips 'a bit too full for her jawline'
narrow jaw; pointed chin
fair-skinned.
At the bottom it says Isabella Meyer. Basically it is just using descriptions of Bella from various Twilight books and put them on Stephenie Meyer to show that Bella looks the same as SM as well as Meyer living through her.

Twilight. How can I put this into words? A diabolic, pestilent plague on mankind; or more accurately: womankind.
