My conversation with Claire last week about Midnight Sun and Twilight reminded me of some previous thoughts I’ve had on the series, so I dug out a couple of essays I wrote about the first book waaaay back in the day. I also wanted to address an issue that Claire and I alluded to but didn’t elaborate on: the problematic content in the books that many have called out as misogynist and racist. So let’s discuss that!
