The thing I hate most about this series is there ARE some interesting things that could have been developed upon. The idea of "vegetarian" vampires and how Carlisle and co. learn to control their lust for human blood.
Or even having Jacob imprint on Bella, but resist it because she truly loves Edward that much. The Jacob/Bella/Edward angle just does not work as is, because it's sooooooooooo obvious she doesn't love him. It's too bad you missed out on seeing what a self-serving little bitch Bella is where Jacob's concerned, but here's the Cliff Notes version. (http://cleolinda.livejournal.com/603861.html)
Twilight is definitely the weak link in the series. It took me nearly two weeks to finish that book. I've never had to work that hard to finish reading anything in my fucking LIFE. But I figure I shouldn't jump into the bashing without knowing what the hell I was talking about, so there it is...for all the good it did. I've blanked out most of the series already, and I started reading it just two months ago.
Glad you enjoy the icon! I forgot where I got it from, though.
