The fantastic author of the Twiligt series, Stephenie Meyer, wants to make the reader always wants you to like Edward. But with Bella's choice she has to choose between her best friend who she loves more than she ever should or her boyfriend of whom she loves dearly with all her heart. The way she writes makes you want to choose Edward, but what about Jacob? It almost seems to me like she wants you to have a heavy choice between Jacob and Edward. She certainly is in less danger with Jacob. But it is almost equal because if she gets too close when he is angry he just might explode. But with Edward, untill her heart stops beating, he always has an enourmous thirst for her blood. He could give up any second. Also, as described in Eclipse, she didn't have to be careful with Jacob as she did with Edward... My friends and I still like Edward, but we would rather choose Jacob. It was a heavy chose for me, too. Like the author wants it to. I wasn't at all ready to give up Edward, and I still haven't. But I still think Jacob would be the better choice.
