For this blog post i will be talking about the quote "and so the lion fell in love with the lamb." This quote is a comparison but also at the same time in a way personification. Its taking the lion, and saying it fell in love with a lamb. This quote was said by edward to bella in one of the chapters. They are talking and edward uses this to show that he is the lion, who is very harmful and even thought they look soft and cuddly really arent. The lion represents that even though he looks cute and cuddly he isnt. Also shows that he is very harmful. The lamb is used to show what bella really is. She is the little innocent creature who is very fragile and can be hurt very easy. She is easy to break and in edwards case want to eat. In real life the lion's eat the lambs, and usually vampires eat humans...not fall in love with them. But in this case edward and bella falll in love which isnt usual and very unnatural. Even though their love isnt normal they love eachother and will continue to love eachother no matter what. Edward will always be there to protect Bella and will not harm her.

For this blog post i will be talking about the first couple chapters of the book. I can't imagine what it is like for Bella to move to a new town. She will need to make new friends and completely start over. I personally think that would be good...but also bad. The good part would be that you can start off completely fresh and with a clean slate. No old grudges or fights would have to be remembered and you can make new friends and you wont have a bad reputation. Starting in a new school would be so fun because you can change who you are if you want and maybe make yourself more focused on school and try hard. For me that would be really good because i would have less people to talk to or text or im or talk to on facebook. Even though there are good things that come whit moving to a new town there is also bad stuff. Bella doesnt really liek starting in the new school because she gets alot of attention on her and everyone in the whole town knows shes coming. When she starts her first day all the guys start to talk to her and like her. So many of the guys ask her to go to the spring dance with them, but she politly declines. Poor bella because she is pretty shy...but who knows maybe she will meet someone to help her come out of her shell.

REFLECTION

For this quarters outside reading i will be reading Twilight written by Stephenie Meyer. I chose this book because i've heard so much about it and ive also fallen in love with the movie. Everyday i hear something new about twilight and everyone is always recommending to read it, so i decided this would be a great time to try it! This book has my two favorite things...action and romance. The connection between bella and edward is so strong and everyone always wants that fairytale relationship. But im not sure how long their relationship will be that fairytale because there are no vampires in fairy tales.
