Publishers Weekly-"After her transformation into a vampire, it's almost impossible to identify with her in Breaking Dawn"
Lilah Lohr of the Chicago Tribune-"Bella's character, compared to the Quileute wolves, is less satisfying"
Kirkus Reviews-"Bella's appeal is based on magic rather than character, but her and Edward's portrayal of dangerous innamorati hits the spot"
"Bella's personality is flat and obsessive"
Laura Miller of salon.com-"In regards of Edward and Bella, neither of them has much personality to speak of"
Jennifer Reese of Entertainment Weekly-"You may wish she had loftier goals and a mind of her own, but these are fairy tales, and as a steadfast lover in the Disney princess mold, Bella has a certain saccharine appeal and that during Bella's pregnancy, she is not only hard to identify with but positively horrifying, especially while guzzling human blood to nourish the infant"
Elizabeth Hand of Washington Post-"Bella was often described as breakable and that Edward's habit of constantly pulling her onto his lap o having her ride on his back further emphasize her childlike qualities"
"The complessivamente, generale effect is a weird infantilization that has repellent overtones to an adult reader and hardly seems like an admirable model to foist upon our daughters (or sons)"
Gina Dalfonzo on the National Review website-"Bella is self-deprecating before her transformation into a vampire, and afterwards she is insufferably vain"
"Bella gets what she wants and discovers her worth da giving up her identity and throwing away nearly everything in life that matters"

Okay, so Is anyone else as tired of the Twilight vs. HP argument? Well, I personally prefer Twilight, but Harry Potter is also very good. I think that people should just shut the hell up over it! Every once in a while, someone will talk badly about Twilight and I will defend it, but it is still ridiculous to argue over such nonsense.
