TWILIGHT
the theme of twilight is the star-crossed fate that bella and edward have. that cant be together yet they have to be. the love that they share for each other and the pull of that love.

ECLIPSE
the conquering ability of love is what i get. how edward and bella face victoria and her army. the volturi. they come out alive and bella learns that even though she loves jacob and has to choose she cant live without edward and doesnt want to live without him. and the friendship or understanding the wolves and vampires learn about each other for one person how they may have ended their quarrles. i havent fully grasped the theme yet but im trying to understand more.

I think that the theme of Twilight is that, if you love someone, nothing else matters. I think that, part of the theme is also the fact that they agree and disagree, like all loving couples do, but that doesn't keep them from loving each other, and being together, as it does from some people. Part of the theme is also how they are defying fate, how she shouldn't be alive and how he shouldn't exist, so that would also make them the same in some ways, but totally different. I think that the complete theme in one sentence is that they have an undying love, so nothing else matters, not fate, not arguments, not differences, nothing can keep them apart, and at the end, not even a deadly killer could keep them from loving and worrying about eachother, and that many young couples could learn a lot about love from them.

that was a great point. I had thought of it that way put couldn't put it into words

Thanks, I really needed that, I haven't felt very confident about school at the end of the year, and it's nice to have my work complimented.
