5. • Personal choice pops up as a huge component of all the
action in Twilight. The defining aspect of the Cullen's –
the "good" vampires – is that they've chosen to suppress
their natural desire for human blood and only feed on
animals. And driving the main plot, both Edward and
Bella know what the safe action is for each of them – to stay
away from each other – but they both struggle with how
that route conflicts with their desires. Bella chooses to
pursue Edward even though it's a dangerous. Edward
chooses to engage in a relationship with Bella even though
his instincts tell him that she's his prey. But the biggest
choice hanging over the whole novel is: will Bella choose to
become a vampire, and will Edward allow that?
Theme of Choice

7. • It's the oldest story ever told – the forces of
good against evil! Light vs. darkness! The
heroes vs. villains! Goodies vs. baddies!
Friends against foes!
• Generally, vampires are seen as evil. They're
considered "monsters" in cultural lore. Most
vampires give in to their desire for human
blood, but the Cullens don't.
