Customer Rating: Summary: Bad writing, so why can't I put it down? Comment: Okay - I am picky about good writing, and this is not it. But somehow, it's a real page turner. I read this because I have a 13yo son, and all the kids are talking about the books and reading them. I didn't expect to like it as much as I did! The storyline is very teenage-angst. But it's fun for this mom to imagine myself as Bella. Too bad there was no cute vampire admiring my awkwardness back in the day. Customer Rating: Summary: Loved it! Comment: Alright. I was given this book. I was skeptical. I did not expect to like it.
Well, to my slight embarrassment - I LOVED it!
Sure, it's teens in love - but this a VAMPIRE and a teen in love!
At times I felt silly at how much I enjoyed the syrupy sweet sentiments and over-the-top emotions. But not everything you read has to be WAR & PEACE.
No, this book won't change your life but it will give you something fun to read (and now that it's paperback) for a very reasonable price.
And yes, I have already ordered the 2nd book in the series.
Live a little and add some Twilight to your life.
Customer Rating: Summary: A Must Have on Your Shelf Comment: I absolutely loved this book, and the whole series. I am now finishing Breaking Dawn, and listening to Twilight again on Audio. The love story between Edward and Bella is magical, and there were times I found myself not breathing as I read! This will be a book, and series, that I read over and over again all of my life. Customer Rating: Summary: A Twilight Treasure Comment: The Twilight Collector's Edition book is an enjoyable collective for all fans! It includes a slip case, a new hardcover design, an attached bookmark, new chapter designs, and page zig-zag effects. Not only do you experience the worlwde phenomenon in a more sophisticated way, but you add a legendary item to your collection! There is really a change in the book's expirience, you feel like you are reading Twilight for the first time (if yu've read it before) again! People will adore the way you'll carry the book around for extra protection, and the feeling of having a more exquisite edition feels magnificent! Let's not forget: you receive a computerized copy of Stephenie Meyer's signature at the title page! The story follows seventeen year-old Bella Swan's move from Phoenix, Arizona to Forks, Washington, and how she feels an overwhelming attraction to Edward Cullen, a boy whom she realizes is not completely human. A phenomenon it is! So experience the story in a whole new sensation with an edition that is sure to give you satisfaction! Customer Rating: Summary: pretty good book.. but lacking Comment: the night i borrowed this book from my neighbor i started reading it and finished it the next day. i liked it, i got lost in it and i couldn't put it down. isabella swann ( beautiful name), is 17 and she has moved to forks so her mother can be with her new husband. she falls in love with edward, who is a vampire. edward is beautiful and he sparkles. we get that and other verbs describing how perfect he is, but what is missing is bella's personality. what are her goals? what is her talent? can't she at least have some self-esteem? what makes edward fall in love with her? what is it about her other then her blood? some of things in the book are not based on facts. first of all, vampires cannot come out in the day, they don't sparkle, etc. some of the things in this book was unrealistic, but it is a fantasy. if you like damsels in distress, vampires and fantasy. you might like this book.
