 Awesome! November 20, 2008
Twilight is the best book I've ever read - And believe me I've read a lot. I got the school librarian to order the entire series in so my friends could read them and she ended up having to buy more they were that popular! It's beautifully written and such a captivating tale. I deny any girl not to fall in love with Edward Cullen.
Amazing!! November 20, 2008
This is the best book I have ever read. I bought it when lots of my friends were telling me that it was really good and when I saw it in Waterstones, I couldn't resist buying it to see what the fuss was about. There wasn't anything in it that I found boring and I found myself wanting to scream when I had read it because I didn't want it to end!
hooked!!!! strike by lighting!!! obsessed,a total page turner!!! November 19, 2008
my oh my...the last time i couldnt let go of a book was when i read the da vinci code...i read this book from cover to cover , it was ridiculous, i started around 4pm and didnt stop until 3am ,and i had to carry the kids to school next morning..even so i couldnt put it down , you know how you keep saying one more little chapter which turns into 5more and etc etc..
crazy how good this book is, i had misconceptions about it , it's been a year since i heard they were making a film but i thought the whole idea of mixing vampires with high school was stupid and made no sense and thinking where could it go...well now i know i'm in love with edward then again who isnt sighhhh...
everything about this novel reminds you how crucial little details like pushing back one's strand of hair or just slightly touching that "other" person, a look, a smile are essential in that 1st experience of true love, or crush well those 1st times that occur mostly in high school,the drama the intensity is felt ten times more than a usual adult...love it so much i'm gonna read it back again while i wait for the other sequels to arrive which i'm about to order,and definetly going to watch the film too....THIS IS A MUST BUY BOOK YOU WONT REGRET IT...
The best book I have ever read! November 19, 2008
Well I ordered Twilight from amazon as a bit of a change to my normal reading material. I usually stick with stuff like Harry Potter, Eragon, stuff with lots of magic and other worlds.
Twilight is absolutely addictive. I opened it on my lunch break at work and finished it the same evening.
I love the way the author steers away from the typical vampire trends and I absolutely adore that there is a massive love element to the story but not in the usual corny way.
Im not the best review writer so the rest of the good reviews on here will do the book more justice but i would deffo recommend anyone to read this book. I am obsessed and waiting for the next 3 books to be delivered.
A work of art.
 An exciting first novel November 19, 2008
When Isabella moves to the small town of Forks, she finds it difficult to adapt to the life of the rural community. However, she soon notices the glamorous Cullen family and is particularly drawn to the beautiful Edward. As she learns more about the supernatural mysteries which surround the family, she finds she cannot resist him even if the development of the relationship brings her danger.
The Vampire Myth is updated for a teenage audience and following writers such as Anne Rice, vampires are portrayed as glamorous intelligent beings blessed with supernatural speed and ability. Meyer's writing is atmospheric and her clumsy heroine's self-doubt make her an attractive and likeable narrator. The novel itself is a bit slow to get started but the ending is powerful and exciting. I am looking forward to reading other books on this series.
