This is the series that got me back into reading. This is the best vampire romance i've ever read. I love Edward, and every other character dearly, accept Rosalie. She is just mean. But it is getting old. Not everything has to be about Twilight. There are other great books out there. Not just that one. I think girls are taking it to far-and i was one of them. But not anymore. It's just olda nd annoying.

!!!!! I never wanted this book to end! i wish that stephanie would have made this series last forever. i dont know how her version of a vampire love story became such a hit among teens and tweens but she made an awesome set of characters and made you want to read about them forever. she must be living large right now because her books were freaking fantastic!!

this book is the book that started my craze with the supernatural. it captured my intrest right from the begining and kept me interested even after i read the book eight times. it is my most treasured book in my little library, and if i had my way would be kept in a glass case. i love this book and will treasure it when i am old and wrinkled.

Even the boys love it they can imaginae what it would be like to be Edward and Edwar is so sesitive it oulls you right in.

In Twilight, Bella Swan moves from Phoenix, Arizona to live with her chief-of-police father in Forks, Washington, one of the rainiest places in the United States. Bella expects the move to Forks to be extremely boring. Could she be more wrong?
Bella becomes intrigued by a family with the surname Cullen. They are adopted, but they all favor one another with their pale skin. They also miss school when the sun shines and only associate with each other. She is particularly attracted to Edward Cullen, which is ironic because he is also painfully drawn to her, or at least to the smell of her blood.
Through the book, Bella is described as a magnet for danger. This statement's truthfulness manifests itself over and over. Not only has she managed to fall in love with a vampire, but it happens to be the one vampire that wants more than anything to kill her. That is, until he falls in love with her, too, and devotes all of his time to watch his fragile human and protect her from all of the perils of mortality, which he soon finds is a full time job when Bella finds her life threatened in every way possible.
Overall, I thought this was one of the greatest books I have ever read. I love to read, and I broke my ultimate rule of always reading the book before watching the movie because I did not think I would be interested in books about vampires. I liked the movie so much, that I read the book and the next three books in the series within the next two weeks. I fell in love with the characters of Bella and Edward, and it even made me, a vampire novel skeptic, wish that the world of vampirical teen romance truly existed.
This is also the only series of books that has compared to the Harry Potter series for me (and many others). Even though the themes of these books are not related, they share the addicting and captivating qualities of creating unique worlds with secrets intwined throughout the entire story. However, this book covers multiple themes. I would recommend this book to anyone that is a fan of Harry Potter books, general vampire books, any kind of teen "chick lit" books, or romance books in general.

What can I say about Twilight.....well it's a fantastic read if you like vampire books. Twilight is about a girl name Bella who moves to a town called Forks where she lives with her dad Charlie. She meets this guy Edward who at firsts acts like he can't stand her, she realizes theres something different about Edward.Bella almost got hit by a car, but out of nowhere Edward saved her. Thats when Bella realized that he must have some type of power. She researched what he might be on the internet, and asked if he was a vampire. They fall in love with each other pretty quickly. They never even asked each other out. It's like the were just meant to be. Towards the end of the book I started to realize that it seemed like he never really let her breathe in the realationship. He seemed like he was obsessed with her. Theres another love interest for Bella and his name is Jacob. Jacob is bit younger than Bella but he seem more real to me than Edward, Edward gives in to whatever she wants. Jacob just seems real like a person you would know. Jacob has feelings for Bella, but Bella likes Edward. I also don't like how sometime Bella acts kind of whiny. But overall it's a great book!!
