Getting only a 3rd or so of Midnight Sun, now, just makes my essence scream for closure ... yeah, I could have refrained from reading what she gave us on her website but after the Saga, I was so thirsty for more Edward, more Bella, more Cullen's that I didn't care for her little tantrum or how she was so hurt by the injustices done to her poetic license. After all, "stuff happens" don't it?

I just wanted more of the story ... actually, I wanted more of a sequel ...

Stephanie says that she's taking a couple years off from vampires ... until everyone forgets about Midnight Sun, this so she can, once again, have Edward all to herself ... in order to let the creative juices flow, once more.

I do get it, about writers needing the proper climate to write in. But, forgetting about Edward & Bella, just ain't gonna happen. I'd sooner stop breathing.

If I'd be dreaming I'd want a series all to Edward, himself - he's such a complex character - I want to know his feelings throughout the saga, not just during Twilight. Stephanie gave us a taste of that in Breaking Dawn but there is so much more to know.

Weill, like I said, I like to dream !!! (show less)

No, it's a flop!

Further proof that Edward was a creeper all along. Really, ladies, he greased up Bella's bedroom window so he could sneak in easier and watch her ... (show more)

Further proof that Edward was a creeper all along. Really, ladies, he greased up Bella's bedroom window so he could sneak in easier and watch her sleep. Why no one finds anything the least bit wrong with that is anyone's guess. It's definitely something that would freak me out, regardless of how attractive this stalker is.

Either way, I'm pretty sure I knew all this before. After all, it's just Twilight all over again. I would understand if she wanted to do New Moon from Edward's perspective, since we didn't see him for three-quarters of the book, but writing from his perspective during a novel where he was there for the vast majority of it? She's just trying to sell the same book again and regain the fans that left her after Breaking Dawn. If she wanted this to happen, she was probably better of just splitting between Bella and Edward's narrative during Twilight to begin with. (show less)

  I was so grateful to SM for posting the draft on her sight. If she does decide to never publish it, at least I got a deeper perspective to Edwards thoughts. I started to get teary eyed when he began to compose the song for Bella and seeing that he was so lost before he had met her. I was able to grasp a better understanding as to why he was so harsh on Bella, regarding them being together.

  I loved getting to know the Cullens more as well. Alice is the most adorably character, and this view ... (show more)

  I loved getting to know the Cullens more as well. Alice is the most adorably character, and this view made you really see who she is and why she was the supportive one for Edward.

  I can only hope that SM will publish Midnight Sun so that I can see what Edward was thinking in the meadow. Through this draft you get to see how Edward truly loved Bella.

  Read it! You wont regret it......... (show less)

  Wow...264 pages of Edward's POV that has no publishing date as of yet? I don't know if it's more frustrating to have to wait an untold amount of time for pages 265 and beyond or to have known about the first 264 pages being available and not reading them. Regardless....wow. I really liked Edward's POV more than Bella's and I do have to admit to little feelings of victory when something that Edward thinks/says in Midnight Sun adds so much more to the story in Twilight (like what ended up ha...

Regardless....wow. I really liked Edward's POV more than Bella's and I do have to admit to little feelings of victory when something that Edward thinks/says in Midnight Sun adds so much more to the story in Twilight (like what ended up happening to the guy harassing Bella in Port Angeles, how Angela and Ben really ended up together, and how Edward knew it was okay to take Bella to the sunny meadow). I loved getting to know Emmett more than I ever thought possible (I never got the impression that he and Edward were close as brothers) and I also didn't think it was possible to love Alice even more than I did when reading the series. Can't wait for this to be published. (show less)
