Highlighting Twilight

So right now, I'm in the process of rereading Twilight and adding snarky little comments in pencil. I'm counting how many times...

1) A form of the word 'murmur' is used
2) A form of the word 'glower' is used
3) A semicolon is used (they're awesome, but if you overuse them? LAME.)
4) Edward's physical traits are described
5) Edward tells Bella that it's dangerous to be around him

#5 isn't applicable yet, since I'm only on chapter 2 and they haven't spoken yet. But so far, in 1 chapter plus one page (a total of 29 pages), there are...

1) Murmurs: o
2) Glowers: o
3) Semicolons: 15
4) Descriptions: 18
5) Dangerous: (N/A)

That's right, folks. And the physical descriptions are only on TEN pages. Scary, I know. Unfortunately, I'm not to chapter 7 yet, so I can't rewrite much yet (plus, I'm in the middle of finals). I'm especially looking forward to commenting on chapter 13- the chapter where Bella and Deadward are in the meadow. >:D

What I'm Reading: Twilight. Duh. Didn't you read the rest of the post? ;)

If you comment, I will love you. Forever. Non-creepily and entirely platonically, of course.
