You could argue that "Midnight Sun" is unnecessary and that Edward is kind of a drip. But it's clear that Stephenie Meyer and her readers haven't gotten tired of each other yet.

While the original ‘Twilight’ series presented the story through Bella’s eyes, ‘Midnight Sun’ offers fans an intimate look at Edward’s thoughts and experiences.

In Edward’s eyes, Bella is always in danger. If not from him, then from the world at large, or deadly vampires who, unlike his coven who survives on animal blood, desire humans.
