Review Detail

Reader reviewed by TruBlu93

Before you read this novel, know that you will not be able to eat, sleep, or go to the bathroom until you have turned the last of the pages. This is an invigorating pages turner that will leave you on the edge of your seat and pull your body, mind, and soul from the real world before you realize it. Consider yourself warned.

After years and years of living with her mom in Sunny Phoenix, Arizona and visiting with her dad during the summers in Rainy Forks, Washington, Isabelle Bella Swan decides that shes tired of it all. In that great decision, she also decides to move in with Chief Swan Charlie, her dad. The first day in Forks is very dull, she and her dad dont really have much to talk about and the gray weather isnt doing much to help. Her first day of school however is nothing like what she expected. She knows to keep to herself since shes the new kid on the block but her classmates have something else coming for her. As she steps into her classes, all heads turn her way but she only turns her head towards one person in particular, Edward Cullen. Edward Cullen, among his brothers and sisters is the most attractive people in school. Unfortunately, for us humans, they keep to themselves and no one else, at least until Bella is painted into the picture. Edward, being the only single person in his family, is immediately attracted to her smell, as dangerous as that is to both Mimi and his extra special family. In no less than a week in Forks, Mimi, thanks to Edward, cheats death a number of times. As they spend more time together, they quickly fall in love.

In this stimulating, charismatic, tantalizing vampire fantasy, Bella and Edward find out that they need more than their love for each other in order to survive in this entangled world of vampires and humans.

I would recommend this book to kids of all ages who love fantasy& vampire fantasy. Also to all girls 14 and up because, as odd as this might sound, it wasnt the story line that hooked me to the book but the irresistible character, Edward Cullen.
