If it wasn't required reading for my English class, I never would have finished 'Twilight'. The writing is awful and Bella is a terrible (and boring) protagonist. The beginning is slow and there's almost no plot until the end of the book. After finishing the whole thing and putting it away, I decided it wasn't that bad after all - but it's certainly not that good either. ( )

What can I say...I'm addicted! I read it again 06/15/2009 - I caught a lot of details I hadn't found the first time around ( )

This is a very popular book and most of the girls in the class and some boys too have read it. It is suitable for the seniors at school. We were lucky enough to get the book as part of the prize of the 50 most popular books for the year through the Whitcouls book competition.

Twilight is a book about a young teenage girl that lives with her mother until her mother decides to get married to a baseball player who has to move a lot. So the young teenage girl Bella, is moving with her father in a small town in Washington called Forks. At first she hates it there it always rains and there is hardly any sunshine. She starts to attend school and getting to know her peers well enough until she came to a class and sat next to a boy named Edward and he pushed himself as far away from her as possible. It was like he could not sit by her at all. Later on, Bella almost got hit by an car when Edward ran in front of her and stopped the car with his hand. After that day Bella had questioned him about that incident for days. Eventually she came to find out that he is a vampire, but he only eats animals. Throughout the book the two tend to fall in love and become closer and closer. So close that the bad vampires come after Bella. The bad vampires tricked Bella into thinking they had her mother when they didn't and with that being, Edward and his family tried to help her so Bella, Edward, and his family helped as much as possible by fighting off the bad vampires. In the end, Bella was in the hospital and told her parent's she had a horrible fall.

This book is an amazing book. It clearly describes step by step in the book and has a wonderful meaning. I think the meaning is that love can come from any where no matter who or what it is. This book is in fact a sequel there are three other books. I have referred this book to all my friends and family.

In a classroom, we could divide up into groups and just discuss this book amongst each other. Also, we could makeup our own questions and give them to other groups.

I borrowed this book from my sister and I have no direct need to own it, and yet... I know this is sort of pathetic, but I couldn't dislike this book. I've spend at least a year ignoring the hype and being sarcastic about it, but when I finally read it I enjoyed it. It is a bit fluffy and I surely don't think it deserves all the attention it has got, but it's a story that makes you want to read on nonetheless. And at least for a day it made me feel like I was a bit part of this whole world of Edward and Bella. I'm not sure if I'm going to read the sequels yet, but I might. ( )
