Summaries and Customer Reviews are supplied by Amazon.com "Softly he brushed my cheek, then held my face between his marble hands. ''Be very still,'' he whispered, as if I wasn''t already frozen. Slowly, never moving his eyes from mine, he leaned toward me. Then abruptly, but very gently, he rested his cold cheek against the hollow at the base of my throat. " As Shakespeare knew, love burns high when thwarted by obstacles. In Twilight, an exquisite fantasy by Stephenie Meyer, readers discover a pair of lovers who are supremely star-crossed. Bella adores beautiful Edward, and he returns her love. But Edward is having a hard time controlling the blood lust she arouses in him, because--he''s a vampire. At any moment, the intensity of their passion could drive him to kill her, and he agonizes over the danger. But, Bella would rather be dead than part from Edward, so she risks her life to stay near him, and the novel burns with the erotic tension of their dangerous and necessarily chaste relationship.Meyer has achieved quite a feat by making this scenario completely human and believable. She begins with a familiar YA premise (the new kid in school), and lulls us into thinking this will be just another realistic young adult novel. Bella has come to the small town of Forks on the gloomy Olympic Peninsula to be with her father. At school, she wonders about a group of five remarkably beautiful teens, who sit together in the cafeteria but never eat. As she grows to know, and then love, Edward, she learns their secret. They are all rescued vampires, part of a family headed by saintly Carlisle, who has inspired them to renounce human prey. For Edward''s sake they welcome Bella, but when a roving group of tracker vampires fixates on her, the family is drawn into a desperate pursuit to protect the fragile human in their midst. The precision and delicacy of Meyer''s writing lifts this wonderful novel beyond the limitations of the horror genre to a place among the best of YA fiction. (Ages 12 and up) I LOVED IT & YOU WILL TOO!!! | Customer Rating: | | I was never interested in vampires until I got into Twilight! I'm already on the 2nd book - New Moon & its great also! Can't wait to read the 3rd one! | If you buy this book, make sure to buy the whole series. You can't put them down! | Customer Rating: | Let me warn you. If you start reading this book, you will want to make sure that you have purchased the entire series of 4 books. This book is a slow read at the very beginning and was my least favorite of the 4, but once you start reading the Twilight books you just can't put them down. the second book is much better and the 3rd was my favorite, but I loved the series so much that I have recommended it to everyone I know.
I really liked this book. I was surprised, I am 44 and started reading the twilight series by chance just for something to do while my husband watched football. I became so engrossed in the books that I read all 4 in just 6 days. The amazing thing is I am not a reader. These were the first books I have read in more than 5 years.
I cannot reccommend these books by SM enough. They are so vividly discriptive and she teases you so well by writing almost what you want to happen and then pulling back at the right moment. | Amazingly Awsome | Customer Rating: | | im the type of person that would get turn down by the width of a book but my friend almost forced me to read this book and i don't regret it at all. the book was amazing, and i found myself carrying it everywhere i went just in case i had a chance to read it, finished it in 3 days and already have the sequel, New Moon. i got totally hooked with this piece, i really recomend it! | Boring | Customer Rating: | | I like a good Vampire romance. They are light and good way to wind down before bed. I don't even mind decent fiction for young adults as there are good stories to be had; so I bought this book because of the reviews. Well, it's awful. Is this really what our teen aged girls are like? I wasn't and my daughter wasn't. This is just plain pathetic. | Irresistable | Customer Rating: | | If you love suspense and romance then Twilight is the book for you. Stephenie Meyer tells a story of your everyday girl moving from sunny Phoenix to Forks, an almost non-existent and dreary town. Bella isn't expected to like it and isn't anxious to live with her dad, who she hasn't lived with in seventeen years. Bella has to adapt to many changes. She has mixed feelings about the first day of school, but all goes well. Her biology lab partner who is standoffish surprises her. After weeks of getting to know her class mate, Edward Cullen, Bella falls in love with him. She is irrevocably in love with his ravishing beauty, his inconceivable talents, and his ceaseless love for her. She knew there was something different about Edward that set him apart from most boys. He thirsted for her blood, but little does Bella know that with falling in love with a vampire comes severe and dangerous consequences. The star-crossed lovers will not let anything get in the way of their love for one another, even death. To put their love to the test Bella must choose between saving her mother's life and her love for Edward. |
