Twilight (Twilight #1)

So I read this in 2 days. It was cold out, so I chilled on the couch and read for two days after I came home from school. I liked it. And I hadn't really read any vampire books before this, (it was a long time ago, ya'll), so I was into this! And I'm trying not to think about the movie as I write this, because that is an entirely different review that does not get five stars.

I didn't like it

The guilty pleasure book.But you should read this book before the movie.

The first book in the Twiight series starring Bella Swan and Edward Cullen. Bella moved to the rainy town of Forks, thinking her life was just gonna get really boring. But while at school she meets Edward, a beautiful, pale-faced boy. But Edward is not what Bella thinks he his, a vampire.

Sometimes this book got slightly boring as nothing was really happening. There wasn't enough action for a vampire book. I didn't fins this book as the review said it was but I guess it was written pretty well.

I will always love the Twilight series if for no other reason then it turned me onto paranormal romance books. I actually hated to read before I picked up Twilight, and now I've read more then 200 books in 3 years!

How that happened, I work at an elementary school and I noticed all the kids (boys and girls) reading it, then I noticed that parents were reading it, and finally a few of my friends had it... I had to see what could possibly have all of these people interested. Yeah, I was hooked after the first couple of chapters. I couldn't put it down and I swear my husbands jaw dropped when he saw me reading. lol

It's a classic teen infatuation story, add some mystery and vampires to the mix and you have a pretty good story. I think what makes it is the writing style. Everything flows from beginning to end and it's almost as if it's really happening.

I must admit, when I first time I read this, I found it exhilirating. I read in two days and just had to go and buy the other 3 books. I loved the chemistry between Edward and bella, albeit a tad cliché. It's a good read.

A classic teen vampire romance

loved, loved, loved this book. I was so stoked when they turned it into a movie. I really liked the budding romance between Edward and Bella... brought me right back to my high school days! And Edward Cullen seems like the perfect boyfriend, might I add. Who wouldn't want a vampire to love and protect you?! Who better!?

I'll start this review by admitting that I'm not a Twihard, but I'm also not a hater. This book is kind of like a can of Pringles. Once you start reading, you can't stop, but when you finish the entire can in one sitting, you kind of wonder what in the world you just did. Bella's narrative is compelling, and Ms. Meyer does an excellent job of making the reader feel like she is experiencing the story personally. Maybe that's the magic of Twilight? The plot is actually fairly slow (the villains don't show up until 3/4 of the way through the book), but we keep reading because we're caught up in what Bella wants. The setting is beautifully described, and the vampire mythology (which is very different from most vampire mythology) is detailed. I actually don't care for Edward much. I find him overbearing and hard to get to know on anything beyond a superficial level, but I did feel Bella's strong attraction to him and kudos to Ms. Meyer for that.

Overall, this is a book that (obviously) will gain a ton of fans. While I'm not one of those who will rave about the series, I'm grateful to Ms. Meyer for reigniting many readers' love of YA. She brought readers into bookstores and created a thirst for more epic stories.

THE CULLENS ARE A FAMILY WHO TRY AND LIVE A NORMAL LIFE AND DO EVERYDAY THINGS, BUT THEY HAVE A SECRET, THERE VAMPIRES. WHEN EDWARD FINDS HIMSELF DRAWN TO BELLA SWAN THE SECRET BECOMES HARDER TO KEEP.
ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU HAVE "BAD" VAMPIRES LIKE VICTORIA HANGING AROUND JUST WAITING TO CAUSE PROBLEMS. EDWARD SETS HIMSELF ON A PATH OF DOING ANYTHING TO KEEP BELLA SAFE

THIS BOOK IS WRITTEN BEAUTIFULLY AND APPEALS TO EVERY GIRLS HEART YOUNG OR OLD!
