History YMMV / Luminosity

* UncannyValley: Vampires that can sense other people [[spoiler: like Jasper and Harry]] find Bella's immunity quite unnerving.

* ParanoiaFuel: Chelsea. You ''[[MindRape don't notice]]''.

* SugarAndIcePersonality: Allirea. Creepy and obsessed with vengeance when we first meet her, but devoted to her family, especially her children.

* BaseBreakingCharacter: Bella. Is she a logical rationalist, a strong, intelligent heroine and a well-meaning altruist? Or is she simply an arrogant, self-righteous, power hungry megalomaniac? For that matter, is she a believable, well-constructed, intriguing character? Or is she a robot-like and inhuman character?

* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: Bella. Is she a logical rationalist, a strong, intelligent heroine and a well-meaning altruist? Or is she simply an arrogant, self-righteous, power hungry megalomaniac? For that matter, is she a believable, well-constructed, intriguing character? Or is she a robot-like and inhuman character?

%%* OneOfUs: Her requested Christmas present was putting tropes on this page and putting the proper links back. Think she might be a troper?
%%** There's a good chance she is but in her bio she mentions that she believes adding tropes to pages about things she created "is tacky."

* UnintentionallyUnsympathetic: Bella, to some. No small number of readers find her less than likable, with her plans to [[spoiler: kill the Volturi, convert to vegetarianism or kill every single vampire in existence, turn all or most humans into vampires, and ''take over the world''.]] Then there are the smaller things, like her tendencies to constantly go behind her family's backs to do things that may [[spoiler: and do]] have disastrous consequences to them all.
** JustifiedTrope: It's worth mentioning that a large part of the reason she goes behind her family's back is to ensue that Volturi's Aro, who can read the mind and EVERY THOUGHT A PERSON EVER HAD BY SIMPLY TOUCHING THEM, doesn't learn of her plans. She fully believes sneaking around is the best option and she's safe from Aro thanks to her "shield" power that can mentally mask her thoughts. [[spoiler: Sadly for Bella, the Volturi have played the vampires' equivalent of ''Series/GameOfThrones'' for centuries ahead of her.]]

* UnfortunateImplications: A '''lot''' of homophobic subtext, especially in the context of [[spoiler:Victor's]] imprinting, which is played exactly like your average CureYourGays plotline. Granted, most of the issues actually come from him, as his is a very realistic portrayal of gay men in self denial. However, the fact that not only is his imprinting okay (basically, trading natural sexuality for a ficticious trait that reeks of creepyness, [[DoubleStandardRapeSciFi as it is very complex free will wise]]) is encouraged, but ''treated as the right course of action'', leaves quite a sour taste for people not into the "opressing other's happiness in name of fickle morality".
