Twilight @ review

Twilight is a young adult vampire-romance novel written by author Stephenie Meyer. It was originally published in hardcover in 2005. It is the first book of the Twilight series, and introduces seventeen-year-old Isabella "Bella" Swan who moves from Phoenix, Arizona, to Forks, Washington, and finds her life in danger when she falls in love with a vampire, Edward Cullen. The novel is followed by New Moon, Eclipse, and Breaking Dawn.

The story of twilight begins when Bella Swan reluctantly moved to the perpetually overcast and rainy town of Forks, WA, and set out to carve a niche for herself, she assumed it would be one similar to the low-profile social position she held back in a sunny town of Phoenix in Arizona. First on the list of surprises was the unfamiliar attention from the male population of her new high school; second, the attention from one male in particular as her classmate and partner in her laboratory class: Edward Cullen, the mysterious vampire guy. At first, Edward Cullen feels so utterly repulsed with Bella unknowing that Edward Cullen has the ability to read ones mind but only Bella’s he can’t and Edward doesn't eat humans, but Bella's scent inspires a nearly impossible to harness bloodlust that’s why he kept himself away from Bella for his sake and Bella that e even attempts to change his schedule to avoid her, leaving Bella completely puzzled about his attitude towards her. After several uncertain and not normal things she experiences from Edward like he has a cold skin and extraordinary strength, she found out that Edward is one of the feared creatures, the vampires.
Before long, the unlikely soul mates find themselves in a passionate relationship with a variety of significant setbacks, including Edward's special-needs diet and the human girl's mortality. Though things proceed relatively smoothly at first, Edward even introduces Bella to his adoptive vampire family. A visiting vampire clan consisting of James, Victoria, and Laurent catches Bella's unique scent and threatens the young couple's budding, if dangerous, happiness. James, known for his powerful tracking ability, becomes obsessed with making Bella his next victim. Fearing for Bella's safety and that of her loved ones, the Cullen Family must combine their collective talents in order to stop the highly predatory James before his goal is accomplished, to take Bella as his prey. The Cullens planned to distract the tracker by splitting up Bella and Edward, and Bella is sent to hide in a hotel in Phoenix. Bella then gets a phone call from James in whom he says that he has her mother, and Bella must give herself up to James at her old dance studio, to save her. She does so, and while at the dance studio, James attacks her. Edward, along with the rest of the Cullen family rescue Bella before James can kill her. James did not succeed in his malicious plan for Bella. James was killed by the Cullen family who’s protecting Bella from him.
Once the family only realizes that James has bitten Bella's hand, Edward sucks the venom out of her system before it can spread and change her into a vampire. Bella got injured and took to the hospital with Edward who has always kept an eye on her all day long until Bella’s awake and recovery. Still Bella and Edward joined there Prom night and Bella expresses her desire to become a vampire, which Edward refuses to let happen. The story did not end their yet because their still Victoria who will gone to take her revenge by loosing James from the Cullen family.
