Haha, yes, exactly -- the sparkly thing is the most unintentionally hilarious description of a 'vampire'. The mental image is just ....lmao. (I don't know if you've ever seen the RiffTrax take on Twilight, but every time I think about one of Meyer's vampires sparkling, I hear the Benny Hill theme that they play as Edward is running up the hill to show Bella his sparkliness. XD )
And yeah...it's aggravating to read her insistence on the various characters' 'goodness'. As you say, it's all just tell and no show. And because her so-called narrators in question (Bella and Edward) are both so poorly written in general, even the 'tell' is just totally unconvincing.
