Twilight (Twilight #1)

Reader reviewed by Katie P

The book Twilight by Stephanie Meyer was amazing. It has an original plot line and fresh new idea unlike any book I have ever read. It starts out with a girl named Bella who goes to live with her father. Then she sees Edward Cullen a very mysterious and cute boy who she soon becomes interested in. They eventually Bella falls deeply in love with Edward, and still loves him long after finding out hes really a vampire. Even though Edward loves him some problems occur due to the fact that Edward is a vampire, and well they like blood. This is just a great love story. Its the first of three books but youll become immediately hooked from the second you pick it up. Its very well written, easy to read and understand. Its an extremely unique book and there is nothing like it out there. I read the first book in like three day it was so good and then begged my mother to buy me the second one. Even though the beginning is a tiny bit slow it picks up extremely fast and always keeps you interested. Its action packed, and very entertaining. Bella is a lifelike character who a lot of girls can relate to and who can pass up a great love story. Twilight will leave you on the edge of your seat and reading more then you ever thought you would. Twilight by Stephanie Meyer is a profound book I think is great for people of all ages.

Bella Swan seems to have it all. Though she is a clumsy new student, she attends a good school, has good friends, is liked, attractive, and has an awesome boyfriend.

Did I mention he's dead, though?

That's right. Meet Edward Cullen. One of the "children" in the Cullen clan, Edward Cullen is alarmingly attractive. He radiates an aura of sex-appeal, ferocity, nervousness, and charm. He is a catch, and Bella happened to catch him, fangs and all.

Despite originally believing he hated her, Bella grows to understand that the feelings Edward has for her are intense, and can possibly endanger her life. He is a vampire, after all, and because Edward finds her "alluring scent" so attractive, it is often hard for him to restrain his want of attacking her.

Ultimately they manage, and fall deeper in deeper in love, with Bella growing closer to all the members of the Cullen clan in turn.

Things take a drastic turn, however, when a vampire coven comes in and sets their sight on Bella.

Edward, fearing the loss of the one he loves most, must act, and act quickly. He must make a decision to save a life, but..at what cost?

Riveting, absorbing, and utterly intriguing, "Twilight" is one of the best reads a person can possibly experience.

This is one of the most fantastic series that I have read yet! I usually hate stories that have vampires in it, but the way that Stephanie Meyer writesmakes me forget all about the hatred I have for vampires. The love that she writes about makes me want to jump into the book and become Bella and I think that anyone who reads this and the rest of the books in the series will feel the same way.

I couldn't stand to put it down once I started. I read this book in one sitting. It's the love story between a vampire and a human, and the love feels so real, it's hard to imagine it's just a book. The main character, Bella Swan, is instantly likeable, and it's impossible not to empathize with the new couple as their relationship starts to bud. The vampire, Edward Cullen, is captivating with his extraordinary beauty, ancient genteelness, and ability to read minds. But just when the tension eases and it seems like things are going to work out for them, disaster strikes. The book was so much more than I expected; the love feels so real, and at its heart, it's more a love story between two beings than anything else. Of course, because one of them is a vampire, there's a bit of hunting and quite a lot of action as well. This was a thoroughly entertaining and enjoyable book,I recommend it completely."

Twilight is the story of Bella Swan. Bella moves to the small town of Forks to life with her Father, Charlie. She meets a gorgeous guy, and soon finds out he is a vampire. He warns her that she is in danger, but she loves him too much to stay away.

I LOVED this book. I thought the idea of vampires was so ridiculous that I almost didn't read it. I don't remember what made me read it, but I'm so happy I did. It's romantic, action packed, and amazing. I couldn't put it down.

Twilight tells the epic love story of Bella Swan and Edward Cullen. Cliche, however, it is not.

You see, Edward is a vampire.

Immediately upon meeting, the two begin to fall in love, avoiding the horrible realization that Edward is the animal and Bella should be the prey. His thirst for her blood and his love for her soul constantly battle each other to be dominant. What happens?

Meyer's personality shines through in her writing style, and the next two books in the saga are both wonderful. A worth while read even for those who, like me, have never enjoyed stories about vampires or anything supernatural. Also, perfect for the hopeless romantic.

This ia a fairytail with a morden twist to it. This is probably one of the first really iminagitive series i've read in a long time. personlly i love this book. It's great that this book was able to be published. I mean after the end of the Harry Ptter series it's great to see something come out that's on pretty much the same level of fame of Harry,Ron,Hermione,and Voldemort.

I personlly can't wait till August when Breaking Dawn is realeased it will probably as busy as the day Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows came out mabye ever bigger.Who knows only time will tell. I do know one thing. Ican't wait till The Host comes out.

Twilight is about the way that Bella and Edward fall in love. It all starts when Bell moves to Forks, Washington and meats Edward. Edward just wants to stay away from her but he cant. Her blood in irisistable to him and he doesnt want to do anything harmful to her. Edward finds himself not being able to go away from Bella and falling in love with her.
Then he gets closer to Bella and has to be careful when hes with her. Bella on the other hand doesnt understand why Edwards acting the way he is. Then when she goes to La Push she accidently finds out by and old friend that Edwards a vampire. Thats when all of her adventure with Edward starts.

This book, has always been one of my favorites. I love how I can really imagine Edward (one of the main characters.) Her descriptions are done beautifully:) This is my favorite of the series, and would recommend it to anyone who likes fantasy and who enjoys a good read. It is a long book, but it goes by really fast. Wonderful!

I read Twilight because all my friends were saying how good it was, and when i finshed this book, i immediatly wanted to read the next one. Infact, i like this series so much that i used Eclipse (book 3) for an english assignment. By now, i think all the girls in my grade have read and re-read it, myself included.

Bella is the new girl in town. Everyone seems to be very welcoming, except for a boy in her chemistry class, Edward, but strangely enough, Bella is fasinated by this pale, perfect boy. As she tried to find out more about Edward and his family, she discovers a secret that might be better left unknown.
