I've read Meyer's posting of the first 12 chapters of Midnight Sun, and I do think the other books would benefit from Edward's perspective. It's interesting how Edward assumes "thinking" his affection in his conversations with Bella will convey it. Or how his knowledge of the vampire world is somehow a "given" in understanding his approach to her overwhelming appeal. It's like the old title, Women Can't Hear What Men Don't Say. This is what makes the development of their relationship so interesting - the cryptic approach each of them has towards their mutual attraction. But because they are mutually blind to the other's thoughts, it's a side of the story that is lost unless it is retold from the other perspective. Keep writing, Stephanie! We appreciate you!
