Twilight "mistakes"

cassie-1-2-3 All it means is his face is constantly stern.

twilightlover73 ^You said it. Meyer could have used this and not some dreamy-like description for a change.

cassie-1-2-3 Okay. She also could have given Bella a pet monkey.

twilightlover73 ^You said it again. It's impossible for Meyer to use normal adjectives, is it?

cassie-1-2-3 No, it's not impossible, but it depends on what you mean by "normal". I'm gathering that your idea of "normal" is my idea of "boring".

twilightlover73 ^Oh, so saying "my fingers expeditiously flipped through the pages, as if sprinkled by magic fairydust and put in fast motion" is better than, faster than lighting hitting solid ground "I quickly flipped through the pages" ? Meyer was attempting to write a novel, I believe, not a fairytale.

cassie-1-2-3 Yes. Besides the magical fairydust part, since I don't like magic. I do find "I quickly flipped through the pages" to be boring. All I'm really saying is different people have different tastes. I enjoy the adjectives Stephenie Meyer uses, you don't. What's the big deal here? A lot of novels have adjectives. "normal" and "abnormal".

Moonlight_Kitty ^Yes, but Meyer has NO "normal" adjectives.
