An epic romance: star crossed lovers struggling to be together in a world where the odds are stacked against them. Bella Swan is a human; Edward Cullen is a vampire. She’s 17; he’s 106. How can their love survive? From the very first day Bella meets Edward, her world is changed. Edward is beautiful. He is tall, strong, and pale, like a living marble statue depicting a Greek god. Bella is plain, clumsy, and average. She has no personality whatsoever, but Edward loves her all the same. Her blood sings to him, and fills his throat with a painful fire. Edward can read minds - but Bella’s remains a mystery to him. Twilight, by Stephanie Meyer, is a wonderful book. It is filled with just the right amount of supernatural spookiness, pulse pounding action sequences, and heart shattering romance. While reading it, you’ll want to be Bella. You’ll want to feel Edward’s cool marble lips on yours, you’ll want your cheeks to blush with chagrin, you’ll even want your own vampire romance as you race through this mind shattering page turner. Stephanie is a modern literary genius, weaving a story that rivals the work of Charles Dickens and Ernest Hemingway. The characters she creates are so vivid- Edward, the 106 year old vampire, thirsting for the blood of a 17 year old girl. Why did he choose her? What could he see in a weak human? And Bella! Is she worthy of a beautiful, perfect, immortal super-being’s love? Read Twilight to find out.
