Editorial Review:
Product Description:
"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)
Amazon.com Review:
The book that started the phenomenon is now available in a deluxe collector's edition! Featuring a ribbon bookmark, cloth cover, ragged edges, new chapter opener designs, and a beautiful protective slipcase, this edition is perfect for fans and collectors alike.
Bella Swan's move to Forks, a small, perpetually rainy town in Washington, could have been the most boring move she ever made. But once she meets the mysterious and alluring Edward Cullen, Bella's life takes a thrilling and terrifying turn. Up until now, Edward has managed to keep his vampire identity a secret in the small community he lives in, but now nobody is safe, especially Bella, the person Edward holds most dear.
Deeply romantic and extraordinarily suspenseful, Twilight captures the struggle between defying our instincts and satisfying our desires. This is a love story with bite.

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!

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 ... Read More

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!

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.

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 ... Read More
