  Not gonna lie, the retroactively revealing that Jacob was apparently just being nice in "New Moon" to get with Bella kinda feels like the best piece of evidence for the theory that Stephanie Meyer made Jacob so horrible because of how many people genuinely thought he was a better match for Bella than the character she intended for her to be with.

  Carlisle&apos;s backstory: Vampire doctor overcomes his base instincts to become a healer instead of a killer<br>Esme&apos;s backstory: Grieving mother pushed to suicide after the death of her child<br>Alice&apos;s backstory: Misunderstood prophet tortured until she loses her identity<br>Jasper&apos;s backstory: Vampires form gangs and have turf wars<br>Rosalie&apos;s backstory: Kill Bill meets Corpse Bride<br><br>Stephenie Meyer: Clearly none of those stories are as interesting to explore as a couple of whiny, pretentious teengers lusting after each other.

  “Every member of the Cullen family is more interesting than the leads” SO TRUE 😂

  So if Edward&apos;s permanently stuck in a 1918 mindset does that mean he doesn&apos;t think Bella should have the right to vote? Does he support Eugenics? I&apos;ve got so many questions.

  I don’t see the point of going through the trouble of writing a love triangle if you’re just going to get so mad when people end up not unanimously liking Edward that you have to completely ruin one of your main characters lol

  Like Meyers doesn’t write character arcs, she writes character cliff-dives

  My favorite part in Eclipse is Rosalie&apos;s backstory. How she killed all the rapists and then killed her ex-fiancé in a wedding dress? Damn, it’s really crazy how much more interesting the backstories of all the characters are than the actual story, reading them in the official twilight guide feels like there could’ve been way better stories set in that world

  I’m Native American, and Jesus Christ. I always hated how the wolves were written.

  I&apos;m surprised you didn&apos;t go into detail at Rosalie&apos;s backstory, not only was it more interesting than Bella&apos;s story but that this was the part where the books were becoming weirdly baby centric.

  To be fair to Charlie&apos;s &nbsp;sudden dislike of Eddie.<br>For his perspective: out of the blue, his estranged daughter is suddenly dating a guy, they break up so bad she runs off. He then finds out she&apos;s in hospital after Ed tracked her down and has a panic attack about leaving her boyfriend.<br>A month goes by and then there&apos;s another break up. One so bad, His daughter is haveing not only suffering serious depression, but is having nightmares for months <br>She then starts getting better after hanging out with Jacob. Then, without a word, she fucks off to italy and comes back with the ex boyfriend that started all of this in the first place and has apparently broken off her friend with the boy who was making her happy.<br><br>So, yeah If &nbsp;I was Charlie &nbsp;i wouldn&apos;t like Eddie either....until Jacob SAs her and then I would be like &quot;neither of you boys are to come near my child again&quot;
