Where You Been, Loca?

In this Twilight reread podcast, three friends delve deep into the fantastical world hidden under a near-constant cover of clouds and rain in a small town named Forks, Washington.

When it comes to Twilight, whether you hate to love it or love to hate it, you're going to want to jump in on these conversations as we explore the complete canon, fan theories, and some wild ideas of our own.

Tyler Crowley loses control of his van and is about to do some serious damage to Bella and her truck. But have no fear, Edward is here and was standing right next to her the whole time!

Dr. Carlisle (Zaddy) Cullen discharges Bella and she goes home to dream of Edward for the first time that night. 

Twilight, Chapter 4: Invitations - It’s been six weeks since Bella and Edward last spoke but that hasn’t stopped Bella from dreaming about him every night. Some chick named Sadie Hawkins is hosting a spring dance and all these boys are fawning over Bella, hoping they will be the lucky fella she asks to the dance. But Bella can’t even walk without falling down, let alone dance, so she will be spending that day in Seattle instead. Will she be there alone? 

Twilight, Chapter 5: Blood Type - Things between Bella and Edward are getting hot and bothered. Edward invites Bella to sit with him at lunch and it’s everything you might expect from these two: awkward, cryptic and weirdly flirty. Edward skips biology class but Bella still goes and immediately regrets it while Mike fumbles his chance to be Bella’s hero. 

Twilight, Chapter 6: Scary Stories - It’s La Push, baby! Bella and the gang go to the beach. They hit the tidal pools, Bella contemplates the constructs of time and tries to make good on her promise to Edward to not fall in the ocean.

Twilight, Chapter 7: Nightmare - Bella blasts Phil's favorite beats on repeat until she falls asleep and dreams of Mike, Jacob and Edward. Startled, she wakes up and asks Jeeves, "vampire." She scours the internet and Vampires A-Z for more information and legends about vampires. Overwhelmed with embarrassment, she takes a walk in the woods to mull over her options. The Cullens are no shows at school early in the week and Bella decides to join the other girls for a shopping trip in Port Angeles.
