Why is it that I am reading stories of girls who have dumped guys over Edward Cullen. Or girls who "love" Edward and want to hunt him down to become immortal and marry him?
While I agree that a good book can be captivating and enjoyable I can't understand how people allow themselves to obsess. I even read about a guy saving for surgery to look like Edward so his girlfriend wouldn't dump him. I enjoyed the books but I'd never want my boyfriend to change to become Edward Cullen. I love him for who he is, not who he could or "should" be!
I enjoyed the Harry Potter books but never tried to dump my school for Hogwarts!
Fiction is an escape from reality, not a replacement...
I think this was more of a rant than a question. Feel free to comment though
