I find that twilight stories are a guilty pleasure of mine.
My favorite characters are (in no particular order): Bella, Angela, Rose, Alice, Jasper, Renesmee, Seth, Charlie, Carlisle, Jane, and Alec. Most stories involving any of those characters will catch my eye.
I find myself most drawn to stories in which the Cullen's are vampires, or at the very least the supernatural is included. For me their nature is too much a part of their characters to write a plot without it.
Rare and loved stories indeed are those that tell a human story and plot, but keep the Cullen's vampires. Two such stories serve as an examples: Chandler story EverClear and caligula42 story Irritable Grizzly Adams; two of my favorites. The fact that they're vampires is utilized, but the plot is not obsessed with it.
I also enjoy AU stories that move in exciting and epic scope. Unloved Unwanted by content1 is a great example. Her expansion of the macro vampire world and elaboration on the Volturi lifestyle and characters are great.
I'm a huge fan of stories that imaginatively expand on Bella's shield rather then make her have her stealing all the powers around her. I think my favorite such enhancement was GiveUsAKiss413 story Past and Present up to but excluding the stunning finale. My perspective was forever altered by her imaginative expansion of the concept of a mental shield and I find it difficult to see it not following that logical path were she to continue to work with it.
You could infer from my story selections that I'm "Team Edward". You would be right to a point; it need to be pointed out though that I never really liked him until the middle of Breaking Dawn. What ruins it for me is my belief that a healthy romantic relationship is about mutual support not one-sided control. He makes a great bodyguard but a lousy boyfriend.
The reason I'm not "Team Jacob" is simply because I never saw Bella and Jacob as a realistic healthy pairing. Stephani made it clear from Bella's perspectives that she was not into him that way. It might have changed later given the chance, but it didn't in the stories. The way Stephenie described Jacob's stealing of a kiss from her, the scene where she sprained her hand punching him, makes that quite clear. In the movie, Edward's reaction mirrored my own.
I'm aware that many people do not like the events involving Renesmee. I find that unfortunate as she is one of my favorite characters in the canon. The fast growing, stunningly mature little hybrid with the cool communicative power was great. That said, while I like Jacob's character, I am not a fan of the imprinting. I'd be a fan if she grew up and they fell in love, that would be awesome. Imprinting from the cradle... not so much.

~The story of how Angela becomes a Cullen.~
Everyone has a secret that they try to hide, some are just better at it than others. For Angela, that secret was being alone. Assigned to work on history project with Emmett Cullen, he becomes troubled by certain things about Angela that make him question her safety. Later, when Angela realizes that the notes and flowers she has been receiving aren’t from Ben and that someone is stalking her and covering their tracks well enough to make her feel like she is loosing her mind, Emmett and Jasper step in, bringing Angela into the protection and care of the Cullen family.
There is a heavier focus on Angela Webber and her interactions with the Cullens than with the Edward/Bella theme. You have been warned.
:::
“There’s one thing you have to understand about Emmett,” Rosalie told Angela with an almost annoyed sounding sigh. “He has a very severe case of BBS.”
“BBS?” the girl asked with a confused shake of her head.
“Big Brother Syndrome.”
*Special Note: In the books, Angela has younger twin brothers, in this story she does not have any siblings.*

Special Update:
For personal reasons (a ridiculously full teaching schedule and being recently put in charge of a bi-annual local conference and ongoing project), I am no longer able to reply to reviews and questions. But that said, I wanted to give a BIG THANK YOU to EVERYBODY for the wonderful feedback and kind words that have been sent my way since the completion of this story in August 2009. I do still check my messages about once every 1-2 weeks and read *every* review. I just have too many to reply to anymore, but I didn’t want anyone to think I was ignoring her/him in particular, or didn’t appreciate readers taking time to leave a review. Writing this story was tons of fun and I’m thrilled readers seem to enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed the chance to write it. I can’t tell you how flattering that is!!! As I used to reply to all reviews, I feel a little badly about this decision, but work has been requiring virtually all of my time since the new (academic) year began.
Best to all of you in 2010 and beyond!
