Twilight


Twilight by Stephenie Meyer.
Twilight is one of those books that will keep you up on your toes who you are reading it.
Bella leaves Arizona to live with her father in Forks she doesn’t expect to like it. Bella soon makes some new friends at school but when she sees a boy called Edward Cullen sitting with his brothers and sisters in the cafeteria she is interested. Edward is attractive. Edward and his family have lived in Forks for a couple of years they have never really been accepted by the townsfolk. At first Edward is distanced from Bella, sometimes it almost seems like he can’t stand to be in the same room as her. But then Edward and Bella start liking each other. Even as Bella falls hopelessly in love with Edward, she still can’t work out exactly what makes him so different to everyone else. On a trip to the beach, Bella is told about the local legend about the “cold ones”, a group of blood drinkers who have sworn off hunting humans but are still not welcome on Indian land because vampires are not to be trusted. Realizing that Edward is a vampire changes nothing for Bella, she knows that she still loves him even if he’s not human. Edward was made a vampire when he was seventeen years-old. For Edward his love for Bella is both a delight and a torment. A delight because she is the first person he has loved ever since he was made a vampire. A torment because she smells unbelievably good.
