Does anyone else find the books to be slightly... Repetative? I'm really not trying to be critical - In fact, I am enjoying the books quite a bit. It's just frustrating when some of the same situations keep coming up over and over again. Like how Meyer constantly reiterates the scenes where Edward is touching, kissing, etc. Bella and it "takes her breath away" and all that. Once would've been fine, even twice or three times wouldn't have bothered me, it just seems like that happens once every other chapter and it really seems to take away some of the romance (for me).
Or like, Bella will be hearing this strange noise and suddenly realize that it is HER teeth chattering, or HER sputtering for breath because of some horrifying thing she has just witnessed. That particular situation certainly came up more than once.
Even certain words pop up more than is necessarily (Meyer seems to have a thing for the word "chagrin", lol) when synonyms would've probably made the story sound more fresh.
I don't know - I'm probably being picky. (Please don't persecute me, lol) I just get a little fed up with that kind of stuff. Of course, I can't seem to stop reading the books, so it really is irrelevent.
