During the lazy weekend, I was Googlng the interwebs and happened upon this wonderful column that was written last year right before Breaking Dawn came out. If you haven’t read it, do so–it’s a treat–it manages to compare The Twilight Saga to an ’80s favorite, The Lost Boys . But be warned, it does have quite a bit of spoilery material. Here’s a small excerpt–

You might say her profound humanness is her superpower. And it’s also, of course, what makes Bella irresistible to readers everywhere, who identify with her and thrill at her brushes with doom in equal parts. (The hordes awaiting “Breaking Dawn,” the latest book in the series, hitting stores this weekend, are at least as thirsty as Edward on his worst day.) But instead of making her monsters evil, Meyer has given them a touch of Bella’s weakness so we can put ourselves in their places too. While TV series and comics have long played supernaturals for camp (see “The Munsters,” “Bewitched”), Meyer understands there’s no true meat to her tale without Bella, Jacob and Edward’s agony alongside their amazing skills—and no humanity. Bella, like us, is flawed and irredeemably normal. But being blessed with superpowers can be a bummer too.
