I was a bit skeptical at first, but after reading it, it seems pretty legit. A little while after it came out, Stephenie Meyer's myspace quite was updated, saying "the camel's back, meet the last straw" which MAY have something to do with this being out.

IDK, don't read it if you want to wait for the whole thing. The writing style is exactly like Meyer's.

No offense, but her "style" isn't exactly difficult to imitate. laugh.gif

I'll check it out though, for curiosity's sake.

You have to enter the three letters shown, then download the 12 chapters.

^ I actually disagree. After reading the first 12 chapters, it's making me look forward to the rest of the book. It's not like it ends at a cliffhanger (what with us knowing the end already) and is a pretty smooth read. I wasn't going to bother with Midnight Sun until I read the leaked chapters.

Well I'm in the middle of reading it. tongue.gif I don't know if it's legit or not, but with the way some sentences seem to be missing here and there it could be.

I like how he referred to himself as a "cad". Probably the first time so far she's actually using language he would have used and been around in his human life.

Whoa, how on earth did this get LEAKED?!

Well, nevertheless, i'm still downloading it. I'll probably throw it into a txt file and stick it on my iPod to read when i'm out and about.

It actually seems real. I admit, her style isn't all that difficult to imitate, but this looks like it is pretty legit. There are some pages mixed up (like someone screwed up on scanning them), there are sentences missing, there's handwriting on the page corners...

It could very well be a fake. But I guess we won't know for sure until it comes out. Until then, it's a pretty good read. If someone faked it, kudos to them!

Well, okay, I skimmed it. It seems legit, IMO.

But as Rebs said, her style is totally copy-able. It isn't exactly, uh, unique? I mean, how she weaves her sentences and the words she uses, sure. But, it's first person. Everyone/Anyone can write in first person.

Gah. I just talked myself in a circle.



I bet $20 bucks that the editor left it sitting out, and some underdog who works in the office leaked it.

Not to mention that Edward's POV has to be a million times more interesting than Bella's.

Unfortunately he's not that narcissistic. Just, have a picture of RPatz pulled up while reading it. Then imagine him saying/thinking all those things.

Oh man. It is so much more interesting from Edward's POV.

I'm loving this. Thank you for finding it!

Are you kidding? laugh.gif

Edward's tone is far more sensual than anything that could be said from Bella's POV. I think that the person telling the story, his tone and "voice" doesn't just tell you hot how he is, it shows you how hot he is.

Amen!

Holy crap. Reading this is going to make me want the rest of it right now. Maybe her writing only sucked because she was speaking from Bella's POV and Bella isn't very creative?

Because that description of him running through the rain was really pretty good.

Ooooh. Remember his voice is melting honey. Imagine melting honey. Imagine.
