He does all these wonderful things for her, saves her life, makes her feel special, etc, only she is never satisfied. She is a selfish, whining, complaining little wench who, as I explained before, can't decide between the werewolf and the vampire. What the heck? Especially since she couldn't even breath let alone live without Edward in the first book. She is just a big turn off all around. I guess it shows with the first paragraph of her complaining about Washington. It goes downhill from there. Edward was pretty cool, though a pretty one dimensional character, but then again I have a thing for vampires. Heehee! Well, sort of. ;)<BR/><BR/>Totally agree with your assessment that good fantasy doesn't have to have the typical, typical in it. Probably the only one who really got the whole dragon/wizard/elves/bloody battles/quest thing down perfectly was J.R.R. Tolkien.
