i thought this book was really great. its clear that even though its her first book the author has a lot of talent.
i especially love the ending it makes us want more and i do hope that there is a sequel to the book. there's a lot of unanswered questions that a lot of person would like answered. like fopr example if bella becomes a vampire also. that is the major question which im sure everyone would like to know.
the book is very riveting and a sequel would only make it better than one of the best books.
my friends and i hope theres a sequel. to us thats the only thing we're living for now

I swear I did not even want to put this book down after I read it! It was slightly boring in the begining, but once you see Bella get settled you're hooked! I swear I forgot how many pages this book has but it was like over 400 and I just couldn't put it down. It totally captivates you. This book was sooooo good that i read it the mometn i got home. I read for hours and hours and hours. I just couldnt' stop. This book has renewed my love for reading for hours on eds. Even if it meant that i *cough* didn't do my homework *cough*. But I am not afraid to admit that i might be soemwhat of a bookworm, and even if i wasn't i'd still love this book! I swear Miss Meyer should be nominated for the "Best First Book Award!" I even read this book in a 24 hour period exactly. That's how good it is! Through reading this book it made other books that i have read seem so OBSOLETE! I am serious! Someday when I'm older and have a huge house. I'm going to make sure that I have a ginormous library, and that this book be part of my collection. I cannot even start on how much I am DESPERATE for there to be a sequel. It is totally killing me inside! Especially since i just finished reading it today, so every detail that the author put in is still freshly etched into my mind!

I really enjoyed Twilight. It's the author's first book and the sequel New Moon is coming out in October. The story is about a girl named Bella who moved away from her mother to live with her father is Forks. When she enters the school she meets a boy who she is attracted who. but the problem is he may not be a human...It's a great book, around 500 pages but a quick read. Even people who dont read much, cant put this book down.

I will admit, at first I was kind of scared to read Stephanie Meyers Twilight. I mean, Im not exactly the bravest person on the face of the planet. In fact, Im QUITE scared of the&supernatural. But the cover of the book was itself so intriguing that I really couldnt stop myself from reading it...
Twilight surprised me, in a good way. Although the book is based on the supernatural- vampires, to be specific- its not scary at all. Its more inclined towards being a highly interesting teen romance.
The story revolves around Bella, a 17 year old who moves from sunny Phoenix to cloudy Forks to live with her Dad. Soon she notices Edward, an extremely handsome classmate who behaves very strangely with her- ignoring her, looking at her hostilely, even wanting to change classes so that he doesnt have to sit with her and then saving her life!
Bella gets highly confused at this behavior and when she confronts him, he gives answers which Bella cant figure out. She later finds out that hes a vampire- but a good one. Yet, by this time, Bella has fallen in love with Edward and couldnt care less about whether hes a man or a monster. Edward, too, falls in love with Bella. And thats where the story begins.
I loved Stephanie Meyers writing style. Shes successfully managed to make this story seem extremely believable. In fact, while reading this book, I truly felt as though I was transported to Forks and was experiencing everything Bella was.
A perfect book for both scardy-cats who find vampires scary but still wants to read about them and hard-core horror story readers alike. Cant wait for the sequel!

I'll start by saying that I hope very much the author reads this review. I finished the book yesterday and my first thought was, "there HAS to be another" but I've never acutally liked a book enough to try and tell an anuthor that. I suppose that should be an indicator right there as to how great this book is.
I started it in the book store and read the first 70 pages there-and I couldn't get my mind off it until I bought it. When I finished it I felt a definate twinge of sadness- and I'm sure that this will be a book that I have to read over and over.
The writing was almost old fashioned, but that almost made the book more interesting. The best thing about the book is that you can see what is happening, and you feel like you can relate to all the characters.
I highly doubt that it will help anyhting- but I'd like to at least TRY to beg you to write another book. This book was great- no, AWESOME-or at least good enough to get me to say, "OH NO! ONLY 300 PAGES LEFT! I HAVE TO ONLY READ 30 PAGES EVERYDAY AND THEN THAT'LL LEAVE ME- NO! 20 PAGES! NO!" (which of course didn't work as well as I'd planned). I'm not asking for another story about Bella (though, I would love that too)but ANY story would make me happy.
I guess I'll stop by saying- this book is wonderful. It is absolutly amazing and you feel like you are in the story. It went way too fast for me- but I'm sure I will read it many more times (something I don't often like books enough to do). If you're looking for a good,almost hypnotizing book than this is for you!

Isabella Swan recently moved to Forks with her father, Chief Swan. While sitting in the cafeteria, on her first day of school, she stared upon The Cullens. Emmet Cullen, muscled like a serious weight lifter with dark curly hair, with Rosalie Hale, tall statuesque, beautiful figure, the kind that made every girl around her take a hit on her self-esteem just by being in the same room. Her hair was golden. Jasper Hale, leaner, but still muscular and honey blond with Alice Cullen, short girl pixie like, thin in the extreme, with small features. Her hair was a deep black, cropped short and pointing in every direction. Then there was Edward Cullen more boyish than the others with bronze-colored hair, porcelain skin, golden eyes, and a mesmerizing voice. They were all so different and yet exactly alike. Beautiful with supernatural abilities, every one of them was chalky pale, the palest of all students living in that sunless town. After meeting Edward Cullen, Bellas life takes a thrilling and terrifying turn. She no longer dreads going to school their life revolve around each other now. Every moment that they spent together is like heaven on earth, every moment spent apart is miserable, only waiting for the moment that they would see each other again. But theirs something Edward has managed to keep hidden from Bella. She’s determined to find out. Stephenie Meyer has written a novel I cannot do justice too. Every thing about this book is amazing from the first sentence down to the last word. It’s impossible to put this book down for a second, even though I kind of had to because I had school the next day. I truly love this book, more than I can ever tell you. I’m sure you’ll love it too.
