![]() ![]() If this is your particular brand of wish fulfillment, all right then. Whether or not you appreciate the triangle depends mostly on whether you can identify with her, which can be a tough sell for readers outside the book’s target audience.īecause the Twilight books were so dang popular, now all everyone thinks of in terms of “love triangle” is two very attractive male characters who for some reason hang around so that the main character can choose between them. Yet she strings along werewolf Jacob Black because she’s, well… a frail, insecure, doe-eyed teenager who doesn’t know her own mind or heart fully. The infamous Bella Swan is the frail, doe-eyed teenager who doesn’t know her own mind or heart fully, clearly hung up on vampire Edward Cullen. ![]() Love triangles often get a bad rap in fiction because of Twilight. (Don’t worry, I won’t try to argue for the sprouts!) But as it turns out, I enjoy those things as well, so I’ll own love triangles-and hopefully convince you that you might love, or at least tolerate, the awesome triangles more than you think. Granted, in some circles, this is akin to saying I love Brussels sprouts or chicken gizzards. ![]()
