    What do the Canadians know anyway? Yes, its racist, but did they even read the book? I mean come on. Bella, selfish? Crazy, yes. Maybe even a little phsycotic ( she did hear voices ) I’ll grant you that. But selfish? Come on people, lets be realistic. And the kid who said that the Twilight series was gay can just go fall in a ditch and rot there

  • CrazyFreak says:

    Yeah, um, no sex? Did anyone read Eclipse? Cause i dnt know about you, but that got me pretty hot and heavy. It was just like, ohmygod did he just do that? Bella was probably more excited than i was though, and thats saying something.

  • ILoveAlexis says:

    Can Canadians do math? Seriously, can they? Lets see, he was born in 1901, and the year is now 2007. Okay, so
    2007 – 1901 = 106. Simple math people. Ya shoulda learned it in about second grade. Im sorry, but does that look like 200 to you? Time to visit the optomitrist.

  • Twitchy says:

    I realize that article is not very acurate when it comes to the description of the book, but I think it’s completely uncalled for to say things like “what do Canadians know anyway” or “Can Canadians do math?” I’m sorry, but I found that very insulting.

  • nicole says:

    haha edward 200? ok he should be angry haha. no one wants to be older than they really are. come on now!
    haha but i was really surprised that boys were actually eager to read this book. i had to double check! thats good, though! im glad there’s boys actually reading a romance novel that way they know what kind of guy girl expect them to be! hehe j/k!

  • nicole says:

    ok also, i didnt like how the author called bella selfish. it cast a negative side in her character.

  • SillySally says:

    It is very insulting. My folks came from Canada and my dad is a math professor, so i think he knows math. Extrodinarily rude and patent? Yeah, um, I think not. She would rather die a slow, painful death than see anyone that she really cares about in trouble, even Rosalie.

    What really bugs me in this is how ignorant the reporter was. Getting Edward’s age wrong isn’t a huge deal, but the way he describes the characters is as if they are part of a typical soap opra on FOX or something like that. THIS IS TWILIGHT PEOPLE! Just because it takes place in modern day America does not in anyway make it typical. Jake doesn’t have anger issues, Bella isn’t that selfish, and I forget how he describes EDward but it wasn’t very accurate either. I don’t expect him to read all thousand something pages of all three books, but he could at least of made it so that it wouldn’t insult hundreds of Twilight fans.
    AND WHY THE HECK DID HE GIVE AWAY THAT JAKE IS A WEREWOLF? HE’S ASSUMING PEOPLE WHO DIDN’T READ THE BOOK ARE READING THE ARTICLE, THEN WHY IS HE SPOILING IT FOR EVERYONE?

  • Tasha says:

    Since when did Edward happen to be 200?

  • ethereal_eternity says:

    can’t read the article :( *cries*

  • Alecia says:

    These are the best books i’ve ever read easily! i just finished eclipse for the 13th time i think?? but i dont really know because i lose count after re-reading it every week end since i got it! but i cant wait for her to come out with Breaking Dawn!!! she’s takign a really long time so it must be good! do u think that jacob will tell the story now?? I REALLY HOPE NOT!! HE IS THE WORST CHARACTER EVER!!! HE NEEDS TO GO AND DIE MANY MANY TIMES OVER AND OVER SLOWLY AND PAINFULLY!!! do u know i have issues with space heaters now because of jacob!!! he really needs to go away…. i have susistions about the wedding… i think something is going to go horribly wrong!!

  • brunetteclipse says:

    I love the books i cant get enough of them. I cant say i hope that something happens to jacob because i do like the ch. but i hope the she ends the story happily with edward and bella getting married and her becoming a vamp. as for the movie i am sure it will turn out great. the thing is no one can be edward because no one is that…….. perfect. i myself am unable to pic. him in my head while reading. and i cannot wait for breaking dawn either. !!!!!!!!!!!!

  • IluvEdward says:

    Okay, I’ll start with the obvious. Edward 200? How Rude! I mean I would uderstand completely if they were off by a few years,but seriously, messing up by almost a century is just crazy. Also, Bella selfish? I think not! Like others put, she is more selfless! The only thing that they got right in this article in my opinion is saying that Jacob has anger issues. sorry Jacob fans,but be realistic I think that boy needs to sign up for anger management classes.(I personally am not a Jacob fan at all whatsoever.Again no offense to Jacob fans)I did like to hear though that it wasn’t just us girls reading Twilight,New Moon,and Eclipse.there were few points in this article that actually made sense.(basically it sucked)I don’t blame Canadians like other people on this blog.How can you judge a whole country just off one journalists cruddy work?
    Props to Stephanie though for more publicity!
