This icon beat out the most obvious choice because HAAAAAATE.

Per FW, Stephenie Meyer has posted Breaking Dawn FAQs to her website.

Now, on to the "how is this possible?" question. First of all, of course it's not possible. None of this story is possible. It's a fantasy story about creatures that don't actually exist. Within the context of the fantasy, however, this is how it works...

WORLDBUILDING FAIL.

GAH. *growls*

Fans posted furious reactions to Meyer's decision on blogs and websites. One, calling herself Pholla, asked on the LA Times website: 'She stated that she knew who the person was who leaked the story. Why punish her entire fandom for one person's mistake?' Another, Amirah, wrote: ' Can someone please call, email, stalk her and tell her she must write Midnight Sun?'

Oh, Twilight fandom. Shine on, you completely fucking batshit pile of diamonds.

It's as batshit as its beloved author. I can get being upset that the manuscript got leaked (but seriously, why the hell are you giving out copies, exactly?), but to be so petulant and passive agressive and so fucking public about it. Wow, lady. *slow claps*

It just continues to amaze me not that she gave RPattz and others from the movie copies of it, but that she HAD to. She wrote four freaking books in which his character is the love interest and RPattz needed more to go on? Boy, Bella obviously learned plenty about the love of her life, huh?

Way to develop your character there, Ms. Meyer. *thumbs up*

And if she knows who leaked the damn thing, why hasn't a team of Little,Brown lawyers gone after this person? They made us sign a stupid waiver saying that we wouldn't so much as open the boxes before the release date. So... why no public crucifixion for the person who has effectively dried up their cash cow?
