Editorial Reviews: About three things I was absolutely positive: First, Edward was a vampire. Second, there was a part of him–and I didn’t know how dominant that part might be–that thirsted for my blood. And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him. “I’D NEVER GIVEN MUCH THOUGHT TO HOW I WOULD DIE– I’d had reason enough in the last few months –but even if I had, I would not have imagined it like this. . . . Surely it was a good way to die, in the place of something else, someone I loved. Noble, even. That ought to count for something.” When Isabella Swan moves to the gloomy town of Forks and meets the mysterious, alluring Edward Cullen, her life takes a thrilling and terrifying turn. With his porcelain skin, golden eyes, mesmerizing voice, and supernatural gifts, Edward is both irresistible and impenetrable. Up until now, he has managed to keep his true identity hidden, but Bella is determined to uncover his dark secret. What Bella doesn’t realize is the closer she gets to him, the more she is putting herself and those around her at risk. And, it might be too late to turn back. . . . Deeply seductive and extraordinarily suspenseful, Twilight will have readers riveted right until the very last page is turned.
Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: loved it Comment: I loved this book. It is a great easy read! Very interesting and kept me wanting more. Even though I am 20 years old I could still get into it! Customer Rating: Summary: Glitz is in! Comment: I found the Twilight Saga to be pure fun. Perhaps the folks who don't like it take their free time more seriously than I do mine. Or perhaps they don't read at every available opportunity. I don't watch TV. I work very hard with very difficult people and reading is more of an escape than a study. It isn't that I thought it was perfect. I simply found the story enjoyable and gripping. I have read the series twice and two of the books two and three times. They were quite consumable. Unfortunately I'm plagued by the need to edit and will buy a book specifically to edit it. My copies are vigorously marked up. And I'm still delighted by the departure this reading gave me from the norm. Editing is fun, too! I found the characters to be entertaining. Because I have vertigo, it was grand to read of someone who is more plagued by gracelessness than I. I think her bad luck just made her more appealing, for me. The Cullens were intimidating to some, I suppose. I have been around some very famous people and have always assumed they are just like you and me. Some are completely kind and some aren't. The Cullens' stories were an excursion into fantasy and the recreation of myths that I reveled in. I love to see someone stretch all of our notions by changing what we think we believe. What DO we believe about vampires, after all? I, traditionally, if the use of that word isn't too idiosyncratic, find vampire stories annoying. These were candy. Customer Rating: Summary: Great Book Comment: I actually bought this book because it was the only one in the store here in Iraq, and to my suprise it was actually great. I am waiting on book 2 because they only had 1 and 3, but I couldn't put the book down and read it in a day. Very great story line.
