Yep. And the nice thing is, despite being ridiculed by Bella, he stands strong for his morals.
Plus, I do think Meyer does an interesting play with Edward, who struggles with his morality and his “soul”. It’s a nice change from typical Hollywood heroes.
that’s true, he doesn’t want her to become a vampire because he doesn’t want her to lose her soul and become damned. the books are incredibly gripping. did you read The Host? i am not a sci fi fan at all and i enjoyed the heck out of that one too.
