Fan Fiction: The Puppet Master (sounds like a horror movie)

So- I read my first fan fiction last night, the one Alison suggested. I had been wary of reading any fan fiction; cause I really think Twilight belongs to Steph and no one else but I got a little curious about this one. I started reading at 11pm, and I read the whole thing...which means I was up quite late- but I had to keep reading, it was so interesting (once you get past the first few pages)
Who else has read this one? what did you think?
I am really impressed with it, I love that Bella is really a 2nd hand character in it and Jasper is front and center. I think she nailed some of the characters right on the head (even edward) and I am really interested to see how she writes within New Moon- Check it out if you haven't, we could have some great convos with this one i think.

10 enjoyed the bouquet.:

I'm in the middle of it - I love it! I will post more when I finish...but I think what I like most is the premise - everyone can relate to loving Twilight and what it would be like to move to Forks. :-)

And, this story makes me love Paul, and Jasper too, so there's the similar pull between werewolf/vampire. But in this story, I'm rooting for the werewolf!

I am too rooting for Paul (though I did find myself wanting her to be with Jasper...sorry Alice (maybe it is just that I want to be with Jasper?)
I am sooo curious about how she is going to do New Moon... I just love the Jasper insight though! I think it is so clever- I don't want to spoil anthing, let me know when you are done.

Erin said...

I'll let you know as soon as I finish! I'll want to talk about it.

I couldn't stop reading it! I loved that she took what was already there, and then went a different direction. So its like the same story but from a different perspective. I love seeing this side of Jasper. And I keep wondering if it really did happen... Like were the Cullens really secret friends with another girl? Its actually kept me quite occupied. And is my favorite fanfic I've read.

I keep feeling guilty for wanting cammy to hook up with jasper.

alison said...

I know! I totally want her to hook up with Jasper, but I never want Jasper to break little Alice's heart... But they would be so cute together---Jasper is so sweet. Plus, it would make a great parallel story. Kind of a reverse Bella/Edward, where in New Moon, she would realize she feel for Jasper or whatever... Can't wait to see what happens next.

...something has to happen, otherwise Cammy would have a very boring year w/o vamps around...

Erin said...

I finished...AGH! A cliffhanger! I didn't realize the story wasn't finished. I wanna know what happens.

But it's something to look forward to, anyway. Probably my favorite fanfic yet!

I kinda wanted her to be with Jasper (though I knew I didn't really want that, since I love Alice and all) but mostly I just felt really bad for Paul. I like that the vampires are leaving for a while, though, so maybe things can be reconciled between the two of them?

(It made me so mad, though, that Paul was so upset about Cammy's betrayal when Cammy forgave him right away for his...)

Jes said...

I think the thing with Jasper/Alice- it that is it so "spiritual" or whatever that we never really see the heat...so it seems very bro/sisterish to me.

I can see how she will easily be able to write NM...but how will she do Eclipse with Cammy notinvolved/involved? hmmmm.

Oh, I am so glad you guys like this fan-flick too!
