Product Description
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.
Amazon.com Review
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.

 Popular Item November 23, 2008
Twilight is not the best vampire story I've ever read, but I can see why it's so popular.
The concept is great, the story-line is good, the writing is OK. I enjoyed the book.
And if you want to be plugged in to What's Happening In Teen Culture, definitely worth the read.
I'd buy it used if you can get it.
 Twilight Addiction November 23, 2008
Nobody warned me that this book (and series) was so addicting! I fell in love with the book immediately, and read through it in a matter of hours. The best thing about the book is you could be any age and probably enjoy it. I am NOT a teen, I am a mother of two and over 28 years old, but I see women older than me discussing this book and buying it! The author does a fabulous job of drawing you into the story, grabbing you and not letting go. Good luck trying to put this one down.
AWESOME November 23, 2008
This book was awesome and definately worth the money. Its sort of a mordern vampire love story that everyone will enjoy. If you buy it i can garuntee that you'll love it. Just try it out and you'll be on the third book in less than a week!
My thanks to the author!! November 23, 2008
This is more to show my appreciation for Ms. Meyer than anything... From the time I could read and up through my teens, I was a bookworm and was known for always having my nose in a book. Unfortunately, the older I got and the more responsibilities I took on as mom, full-time worker and part-time soldier, the less interest (and time) I had for reading. Now in my late 30's, I often joke about having ADD and only being able to read things with pictures, which meant mostly magazines. However, I recently returned from some military training to discover that my "tween" daughter and her friends, AND my grown up co-workers were raving about how wonderful the Twilight series is! Reluctantly, I gave in to the peer pressure and opened the first book in the saga. "Blown away" does not give my impression enough justice! I was captivated and finished the book in two days, staying up until 1 a.m. the second day. I had forgotten what it was like to become lost in a book--a GOOD book! I gobbled up New Moon in nearly one day and am now on Eclipse. How wonderful to once again find the sweet escape of being lost in a book! I'm already compiling a reading list of future books in which to immerse myself. I just feel compelled to publicly acknowledge and thank the author for rekindling a long forgotten love of reading. So thank you, a thousand times, Ms. Meyer!

I love this book! I read a lot but nothing has captivated me since the Harry Potter series until now! I'm on the third book and can't wait until I get all on them read! It's good reading for 13+ ages.
