My Twilight Journal
My Twilight Journal: The Hunt Part 1
Last week on my Twilight journal I left off with the baseball game. If you missed it go back and see what I have written!
At the end of the baseball game Alice sees more vampires coming.
I have to say I really love the relationship between Alice and Edward. Since she can see things and he can read minds they understand and protect each other well. So when Alice suddenly has a vision Edward know from reading Alice’s thought before anyone else knows.
When Laurent, Victoria and James show up everything becomes so intense and continues this way for me. There are just a few things I want to point out. First of all the way that each one of the Cullen’s (with the exception of Rosalie) rallies around to protect Bella. She becomes the most important thing to them!
Is Bella worth it?
The other thing that really jumped out at me happened when everyone was leaving the Cullen’s house to play their part of the plan to save Bella. Edward embraced and kissed Bella in front of everyone then was gone. Then everyone was gone and Jasper knowing Bella is feeling tells her she is wrong, that she is worth-it! Okay who doesn’t want to know they are worth being saved! As I thought about this I realized how often we are shown by the action of others that we are “worth it” but we don’t even get it! The difference is when someone says it, you realize you do have worth! At the same time here Bella is thinking very much like a human and worrying about everyone else getting hurt because of her. I couldn’t imagine the guilt I would feel if someone got hurt because they were saving me! › Continue reading
My Twilight Journal: The Baseball Game
Last week I left off on the Twilight Journals sharing my thought about Edward and Bella’s Sunday at the Cullen’s.
What is next?
It was great that Edward made Bella tell Charlie that he was her boyfriend. I am not quite sure why it was so important to Edward though. I really enjoyed how Edward prepared Bella to ride on his back again! She became so relaxed and mesmerized by him that she had know choice.
I have to admit that I understand why she gets out of control when Edward kisses her. There is so much chemistry between the two once he kisses her she loses all control! You can see how Edward is so torn at times. He can’t be without her but he wants to keep her safe from him! Bella was great a taking command of the situation after her ride on his back. He kept going on about how he was mad at himself and she was so brave. She just stopped him. Then he said “I love you” for the first time! › Continue reading
My Twilight Journal: Sunday with the Cullens
Before I go into my thoughts about this part of the book, I have to say everyone loves these books it seems. Have taken the book with me to different appointments I have had and everyone asks me: How do you like it? Have you see the movie? Is this the first time you have read it?. It seems as if everyone has a story to tell about the Twilight saga! I am amazed with peoples interest in me reading the book!
Last time I left off where in Twilight, Edward and Bella spend Saturday evening together. If you have missed any of the previous Twilight Journals here are the links:
- My Twilight Journal.
- Edward warms up.
- Jacob Black.
- Port Angeles.
- After Bella know.
- Saturday in Edward’s meadow.
- Edward and Bell on Saturday evening.
After a wonderful Saturday together Bella wakes up to see Edward there with her. He had changed his clothes which he had to explain. They spend the morning together and he takes her to meet his family, the Cullen’s. Bella is understandably nervous. Not only is she meeting Edward’s family but they just happen to be all vampires! When they arrive Bella is pleasantly surprised by the warm welcome she receives. Especially from Esme! But what is up with Rosalie? What is her problem? I know Edward said she is self-absorbed but really?!
Okay, can Edward be more romantic? He wrote a beautiful song for Bella! What girl doesn’t want to have a song written for her! Edward shows her around and gives her a history of Carlisle. This is very interesting and if I were Bella I would have asked about it long before now!
I think my favorite part of this section is being in Edward’s room. I love how he admits to Bella that he is not only relieved she knows everything but it makes him happy! Also I know Bella was a little frightened by Edward’s playfulness but I loved it! He was being him and yet he was also helping Bella again understand the seriousness of being with him! I loved how he felt so comfortable that around Alice and Jasper he could show affection to Bella.
Next time I am going to cover the baseball game. I didn’t want to include that in this post since there is a lot going on during the baseball game!
Until next time,

PS. It is great to see all these scenes acted out in the movie (I haven’t seen it yet, so I am guessing). Get the Twilight movie in two disc format!

My Journal of Twilight: Edward and Bella
My last journal entry for Twilight, Edward and Bella were just heading back to Bella’s house after there afternoon at Edward’s meadow. This is one of the best parts of the whole book at least so far. In my humble opinion at least!
The ride to Bella’s house.
The ride home was pretty informative. We learn with Bella about Edward and how he came to be who he is — a vampire. We also learn about the rest of the Cullen’s and how they became vampires. Once they get into Bella’s house Edward confesses that he comes to her house every night and watches her sleep. Bella is completely shocked! I honestly think it is sweet! He tells her how she talks in her sleep and he likes to listen. I can only imagine how horrified I would be to hear that the guy you like has been watching you sleep at night and listening to you talk in your sleep. › Continue reading
My Twilight Journal: Saturday with Edward Cullen
Saturday with Edward in Edward’s meadow is one of my favorite parts of the books so far. There is so much that happens and such a turn in the relationship between Edward and Bella!
Okay I have to admit it I love how Bella admires Edward’s chest and face. I can only imagine how truly beautiful the Cullen’s are. I don’t think the movies do them justice! On the way to Edward’s meadow he continues to badger her with questions. When they reach the meadow Bella is over come with the beauty there. Suddenly Edward is gone.
Edwards Meadow is a sanctuary
Here in the meadow Edward finally, Finally lets his guard down and shows himself to Bella, first in the sunlight and then they finally touch!! Bella starts by only touching his arm with her finger then his hand is in hers. She is so mesmerized by how Edward sparkles. The chemistry between the two is just electric! Then Edward loses it for a few minutes. He runs off, shows Bella how strong and fast he is. I get it, he wants her to truly understand how she should be in danger! What he doesn’t realize is that she knows she “should” be in danger but she can’t feel it! › Continue reading
