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.
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.

good:
The story is engaging but the style of writing is not the best. I read the books once and will continue to follow the series, but won't be rereading the books a second time. It IS worth reading one time at least.
Wow! An "old" reader stands corrected.:
Let me preface this review by saying I was convinced I'd hate this book. Why? I believed that it could not live up to the hype, and I misjudged it by believing it would be a blood-sucking, trashy novel chock full of teen hook-ups and backstabbing. Plus, I am 30. Could I really relate to this? Well, I was proven wrong on all fronts, delightedly. I had the entire series read in less than two weeks, staying up into the wee hours of the morning reading and reading on my lunch break at work. What I came to like... more info
So relatable!!!!!!:
I am not a fan of vampires and werewolves, but I love this story! Words are written in a way that you feel as if you're part of the story. Great characters, Fantastic visual!!!
Twilight Saga:
Etremely fast shipping and a great book series to read. Would recommend the book to anybody!
