I have to admit, they are great stuff, and Jacob really earns admiration, but I had a hard time with that. Jake may have had a legit claim to Bella's heart due to his services as an emotional repairman, but I'm on Team Alice, and thus, Team Edward by extension. Jake is (was) an interloper, siphoning off affection from bella that should have belonged to Edward in totality. And so yeah, I had to grugdingly accept that he was awesome in those chapters.
I love vamp Bella, but to tell you the truth, I feel it's more difficult to relate to her now. I have similarities to the character, and so it's less of a connection now.
