1. Each time they are in science class, Bella describes an electric-like current passing between her and Edward. What do you think this current is?

I think it's a physical feeling of how aware of Edward she is, and he her.

2. During all the questions, we learn that the thing Edward asks the most about are books Bella has read. Why do you think he mostly asks about books?

Because he's probably read a zillion and learning the kind of books a person will read can really tell you a lot about their interests and personality.

3. What type of books do you think Bella mentions?
Classic literature was probably a large portion of it, since she was always reading Austen.

4. What was your reaction to hearing what twilight is like for vampires.

Interesting. You'd think that for a coven of vampires like the Cullen's that the time of day wouldn't matter, since all the 'stereotypes' didn't really apply.

2. During all the questions, we learn that the thing Edward asks the most about are books Bella has read. Why do you think he mostly asks about books? I think Edward is a very well-read guy and he can tell alot about a person based upon what they read.

3. What type of books do you think Bella mentions? Wuthering Heights, Jane Eyre, Romeo and Juliet, etc. Tragic romances, for some reason.

4. What was your reaction to hearing what twilight is like for vampires. I think it is a very good description.

1. Each time they are in science class, Bella describes an electric-like current passing between her and Edward. What do you think this current is?
Just them becoming physically aware of each other.
2. During all the questions, we learn that the thing Edward asks the most about are books Bella has read. Why do you think he mostly asks about books?
Perhaps he thinks you can learn something about the person from the books that they read. Also maybe he likes to read books, as we find out he has read the second most books other than Carlisle.
3. What type of books do you think Bella mentions?
Classics, like Wuthering Heights and Austen, because she knows he is mad old and they are older books.
4. What was your reaction to hearing what twilight is like for vampires.
I was sad, I kinda felt bad for them.

1. Each time they are in science class, Bella describes an electric-like current passing between her and Edward. What do you think this current is?
I think it is their connection.

2. During all the questions, we learn that the thing Edward asks the most about are books Bella has read. Why do you think he mostly asks about books?
I think Edward is a reader too. He has a lot of time on his hands. What someone reads for pleasure tells a lot about them. My best friend reads fashion magazines. Never books. So, with that analagie, I think Edward is making more connections and it helps him discover how deep Bella is. She isn't reading fluffy stuff.

3. What type of books do you think Bella mentions?
I think Bella reads a lot of classics. I think she is a reader and really enjoys a book. I'm sure she has read East of Eden, Grapes of Wrath, Catcher in the Rye and Little Women, Lord of the Flies, just to mention a few. I wonder if she ever Reads Stephen King....

4. What was your reaction to hearing what twilight is like for vampires.
I accepted it. Maybe I need to read that part a third time.

Lust/Love

2. During all the questions, we learn that the thing Edward asks the most about are books Bella has read. Why do you think he mostly asks about books?

I think that books can help reveal a persons true identity. Edward has lots of extra time so I'm sure he is extremely well read.

3. What type of books do you think Bella mentions?

I'm sure she mentions all the classics. Bella seems to have a taste for the older, more literary works.

4. What was your reaction to hearing what twilight is like for vampires.

It would make sense to me that Twilight would the easiest time for vampires. Less to worry about with the weather and such.

A VERY strange mixture of tension and attraction.


2. During all the questions, we learn that the thing Edward asks the most about are books Bella has read. Why do you think he mostly asks about books?

Midnight Sun spoilers aside...because books are the pages to the soul! :D No, seriously because Edward himself likes to read, so of course he's interested in what Bella likes to read. Also, he can get a pretty good idea of how her mind works by what type of books appeal to her. Or at least what she finds entertaining!

3. What type of books do you think Bella mentions?

Jane Austen(of course). Dickens(You know she LOVES Great Expectations ;) ) Maybe Ann Radcliffe. Probably a little C.S. Lewis. Bella strikes me as the type to hold on to some books from her childhood and why not some C.S. Lewis?

4. What was your reaction to hearing what twilight is like for vampires.

Not surprised, really. It seemed to fit AND it is the title of the book, so I figured, why not? It flows perfectly that twilight would be the "safest time". And metaphorically, it symbolizes the change in the lives of Edward and Bella now that their worlds have collided.

I think it was the physical pull they both felt to each other, the need to close the distance and have physical contact. The kind in knowing the person you want is only that little bit away from you.

2. During all the questions, we learn that the thing Edward asks the most about are books Bella has read. Why do you think he mostly asks about books?
Because books can give away a lot about personality

3. What type of books do you think Bella mentions?
Well she likes the classics with Austen, but I think she likes her romance too going off that, and Romeo and Juliet and others mentioned.

4. What was your reaction to hearing what twilight is like for vampires.
I didnt really think it would matter to them as they live so well during the day...usually without danger.

Their feelings for each other, the need for physical contact

2. During all the questions, we learn that the thing Edward asks the most about are books Bella has read. Why do you think he mostly asks about books?
I think that what you read tells a lot about your personality, the type of person you are, what your interests are....Since he can't read her mind, discovering what she likes to read helps to "get into Bella's head".

3. What type of books do you think Bella mentions?

Jane Austen! Historical Romance...

4. What was your reaction to hearing what twilight is like for vampires.

Sad. It's depressing, I think...to know that one more day has passed for a human but for a vampire, a day really doesn't exist. Time doesn't exist. Okay, now this is confusing even me! LOL!

It's the connection between the two of them growing stronger. Showing that it will not be denied.

2. During all the questions, we learn that the thing Edward asks the most about are books Bella has read. Why do you think he mostly asks about books?
He's extremely well read. He realizes how well read Bella is and their intellect might be more even matched than previously thought.

3. What type of books do you think Bella mentions?
Great literary romances. Stories of tragedy, heartbreak, and inevitable redemption.

4. What was your reaction to hearing what twilight is like for vampires.
It actually made me a bit sad for Edward, but not for the others. They have a mate, but if most vampires are Nomads, I would think that the life would be lonely - never ending loneliness.
