When I starts to write about Illana, one thing I sure of. I don't want she becomes a weak girl, or even though Raka should be much more stronger than her. She should be bold any way.
Suddenly I remembered my old 1st book of Twillight Saga. I remembered Bella then. So I wrote this comment for Mrs. Meyer who wrote women like a broken glass.
Meyers describes Bella as being strong, brave, and independent, but then shows her as a spineless, cowering victim who needs to be saved by her violently jealous and over-protective boyfriend. She constantly goes on and on about how Edward is perfect at everything and how he's so gorgeous and she is so unworthy of him, how he's so strong and he protects her. In fact, she never gives any reason for liking him other than how hot he is, but that's fair because Edward never gives a reason for liking her other than she smells good.
He is frustrated that Bella is the only person whose thoughts he can't read, so he eavesdrops on her friends minds to find out what they talk about, he follows her whenever she leaves her house, and he secretly camps outside her room when she sleeps - that doesn't sound sweet, it sounds creepy. If girls want a romantic, conflicted vampire/human romance, they should go watch the firs three seasons of Buffy -- not only is there the dark, mysterious, conflicted vampire, but the girl he's in love with can kick some serious ass all on her own.
Hahahahha little bit cynical, but I want a young girl open their eyes. Having a strong boyfriend beside us, doesn't mean that we're weak.
.adios.
