1. Were you surprised by how spiritual Carlisle is?
Not at all. It was apparent to me that he has a very good nature, right from the beginning.

2. What did you think about the information revealed about Edward's mother?
Ok. I have a theory:
I think that Edward's mother must have had the same sort of gift that Edward does. I believe that she was able to read Carlisle's mind...or had some sort of insight into it. Otherwise, how could she have known? I think she def. sensed something that other's weren't capable of picking up on. I think she passed that gift on to Edward and in his transformation, Edward's gift became even more spectacular than his mother's.

3. When the kiss happened, did you have any ideas about what was to come?
I knew it would be bad. I was prepared for it to be bad. I had a sick feeling just like Bella.

1. Were you surprised by how spiritual Carlisle is?
It was something that I hadn't expected but it made a lot of sense to me. To be as "zen" as Carlisle is, it makes sense that he is spiritual. I love Carlisle, he's so intelligent, both mentally and spiritually.

2. What did you think about the information revealed about Edward's mother?
I thought it was really cool. I don't know if Carlisle would have created Edward if his mother hadn't said anything. He saw so much good in Edward, but then when Edward's mother said those things, whether she was lucid or not, I think it just really influenced Carlisle's decision. It was great to know that piece of history both about Edward and Carlisle.

3. When the kiss happened, did you have any ideas about what was to come?
Only when Bella started comparing the kiss to the one that she had with Edward before they said goodbye in Twilight, that it was like he wasn't sure if he would ever see her again. Then I started to get really worried. The whole chapter with Edward's behavior had me worried. Especially when he didn't want to stay with her that night. When I saw the title of the next chapter, I died a little!

1. Not really. He is the pastor's son after all.

2. I think it added more juiciness into the story.

3. No. I never expected Edward to leave. Its like the story fell apart.

1. Were you surprised by how spiritual Carlisle is?
Yes. Because he is a vampire. I would have thought that he thought he was damned for life.

2. What did you think about the information revealed about Edward's mother?
I didnt understand how she knew about Carlisle. But I was really happy that she would have him save her son. She just wanted Edward to be able to live.

3. When the kiss happened, did you have any ideas about what was to come?
I had no idea.

Not exactly because of his father, and he kinda comes off as a spiritual person.

2. What did you think about the information revealed about Edward's mother?

I really liked actually learning a bit about Edward's Past. I still wanna know if Edward's mom actually knew that Carlisle is Vampire or not.

3. When the kiss happened, did you have any ideas about what was to come?

Kinda Sorta, because compared it to the way Edward kissed her before she left with Alice and Jasper.

No not really, I would presume most supernatural creatures are spiritual.

2. What did you think about the information revealed about Edward's mother?

I loved that she knew what Carlisle was. it's like that saying, it's not that you can't see, it's that you won't. People stay away from The Cullens in general because they have freaky feelings about them. Hunter and prey, but humans refuse to believe. *Spooky music* Hahahahaha!

I knew he was going to leave, I had seen to many bumper stickers, avatars about New Moon on the net before I read it!!

1. Were you surprised by how spiritual Carlisle is?
Not really. I was kind of thinking that he would be. What with his extremely rough past, what his father did for a living, and him being a Vampire and inevitably having to think about things like that.

2. What did you think about the information revealed about Edward's mother?
I thought it was extremely sad. I really hoped Edward didn't remember her that way, that any memories he had of her were happier ones (however dorky that sounds). I thought it was strange that she seemed to know his secret, and I kind of wondered whether or not it was true, or if she just thought he was a kick-Why are we talking about a donkey? doctor....

3. When the kiss happened, did you have any ideas about what was to come?
I wasn't sure, but I knew once she realized what it reminded her of, that it would keep her stomach in knots. I couldn't even begin to guess, myself, but I knew it would be bad.

1. Were you surprised by how spiritual Carlisle is?
No, not really. It didn't suprise me, I mean his dad was a clergy man. Carlisle was alwas so calm and collected like he knew what he was doing had a point. It didn't suprise me at all.

2. What did you think about the information revealed about Edward's mother?
I was a bit shocked. I wondered how she could have figured out Carlisle's secret. It's a bit ironic how she asked for this life for Edward, asked for him to have this chance to go on, and he despises it. I thought i was nice about them haveing the same green eyes though.

3. When the kiss happened, did you have any ideas about what was to come?
I did. I had a really bad feeling that was what was going to happen, but I didn't want to believe it.

1. Were you surprised by how spiritual Carlisle is?

Actually no, it makes sense why he never drank a human's blood thou shalt not kill and all that

2. What did you think about the information revealed about Edward's mother?

Whoa I think she knew what was going on and that Carlisle wasn't human...she loved Edward very much and just wanted him to live. I liked the story it was awesome.

3. When the kiss happened, did you have any ideas about what was to come?

Then I was sure he was going to leave her... :cry: poor Bella
"Why won't you leave me alone?"
Believe me,I wanted to say. I've tried.
Oh, and also, I'm wretchedly in love with you.

1. Were you surprised by how spiritual Carlisle is?
Eh, I figured so because of all he had gone through to be a "vegetarian" vampire instead of a monster. Plus, he was "born" in Italy, the place where the Volturi roam! Where would a better place be than there?

2. What did you think about the information revealed about Edward's mother?
It was so sad yet so sweet. It showed how much Edward was loved and maybe that's why he's the most perfect, beautiful, fairytale man/vampire a girl could wish for. =D

3. When the kiss happened, did you have any ideas about what was to come?
First thought was that maybe Edward was starting to get irritated at her being human and so incredibly breakable that he would change Bella into a vampire!! Woo! (Even though that wasn't the case. . )
