| Quote #1 [Bella to Edward:] "Which is tempting you more? My blood or my body?" I challenged. |
Bella wonders how much of Edward is man and how much of him is vampire in his attraction to her. You could take this a step further and wonder if Edward would still be attracted to Bella if she were a vampire as well. What do you think?
| Quote #2 [Bella:] "You… don’t… want me?" I tried out the words, confused by the way they sounded. (3.172) |
There’s an entire world of meaning attached to these four simple words and Bella’s mind struggles to make that connection just yet.
| Quote #3 Love, life, meaning… over. (3.214) |
Without Edward, Bella sees no meaning in her existence.
