• A Truly Unique And Captivating Story
14 March, 2010
I saw the movie Twilight, several weeks ago, purely by accident. I'm so glad I had recalled hearing something positive about the story in a review I had read and took the time to view the movie. I immediately bought the book and since have read it twice. I must commend the author for her truly unusual and captivating story. It's my understanding this story came to her in a dream and I count myself lucky she had the dream and wrote it down to share. The story is about a 17 year old high school student, who at first comes across as somewhat ordinary, but who is anything but. She is full of self doubt, has a problem with coordination, lots of typical teen angst, but with a core of unbelievable inner strength. And then we meet Edward Cullen, whom we discover is a "vegetarian" vampire. Edward's physical beauty if often referenced throughout the novel, and having seen Rob Pattinson's portrayal of him in the movie, I luckily had a face and physique to put with the character in the novel. I would have to say, great casting. While Edward has a great many gifts such as super human strength, speed, agility, he too is much like Bella. Full of self doubt, unsure of his place in the world, unable to befriend or connect with humans. He leads a fairly solitary life, surrounded only by his adoptive family. To me, the most beautiful part of the story is the gentle and tender way Bella and Edward find each other, share their secrets with each other and come to the knowledge they are soul mates, however challenging that path is to them both, being of two different worlds. Some the passages in the novel where Bella and Edward speak to one another truly takes my breath away. This is a mesmerizing, romantic, engaging novel I know I will read over and over as time goes by and enjoy every word with each reading. In a word, enchanting!

17 March, 2010
The Twilight Saga (all 4 books) are the best books I ever read. I have never had books keep me attention so fully. I ended up reading the whole series in a matter of 3 weeks. I read every chance I got. I would highly recommend these books to any female.

• Twilight Collector's Edition
16 March, 2010
This is exactly what I wanted and more. I originally bought the collectors edition of New Moon, after seeing it I had to have them all in collectors editions. I love these. they look like antique books, with the ribbon bookmark and the uneven pages. I already have a set of the saga in hard and soft back, but the collector's edition is a true COLLECTOR'S EDITION. thank you

• Sucks You In!
14 March, 2010
I am not an avid reader, nor did I have any interest in the idea of vampires and the hype around the Twilight movies. I happened to catch the movie and thought it wasn't horrible, thought I may take the time to read the first book. The movies do not do these books justice. I only ordered the first book because I really didn't intend to get swallowed into the story as much as I did. I was done within days, and upset I had to wait for the second! This is for the person who can handle a classic romance story. Highly recommend for this type of reader. It is not over the top cheesy, but there is plenty of action to keep you involved. It is actually tough to watch the movies now because of how much they leave out.
