Edward... need I say more? I loved the book and am currently obsessed with the movie. I had heard about the books from a friend a couple of years ago. She told me I would love it and wouldn't be able to put it down. It was on my list of books to read, and every time I saw it at the bookstore, I thought about it. I just never picked it up.
Two years later, I see the preview of the movie, and it is coming to theaters in one week. I get my hands on the book as fast as I can and start reading. I can't stop, for two weeks I stay up until 4:00 a.m. reading until the last of the series (4 books) has been read. It is that good!
Twilight starts off with Bella who has moved to the gloomy town of Forks. This is where she meets Edward Cullen, the most beautiful and captivating boy in the school. She is intrigued by him when she learns more about him from her classmates. She quickly becomes irritated at his reaction when she becomes his lab partner. He seems violently ill at the sight of her but risks his life (or so she thought) when she is almost killed. She realizes that he was across the parking lot right before the accident. Also, he seemed to push the car away to keep her from getting hit. Something isn't right, and Bella soon uncovers his secret... he is a vampire. The story continues with a very intense romance and is filled with suspense.
I only recommend this book to those that want to be swept away in a very intense romance that is filled with suspense. Look for reviews on the rest of the series, they are coming soon!
