Twilight
Author: Stephenie Meyer
‘Twilight’ as the Beginning of the Twilight Saga
In Twilight, a teen girl named Bella doesn’t appear to know where her life will lead her next. She soon moves in with her dad in the small city of Forks, and in Forks Bella feels that her life will just follow the boring path it has taken. Her world is suddenly turend around when she meets a beautiful but dangerous family of mysterious people, known throughout the small town as the Cullens. There is one particular Cullen that Bella can’t get out of her head – or rather, that Cullen can’t get Bella out of his head. Edward Cullen is a good looking, silent boy with dark eyes and is a mystery to the other students at the higt school. It is not until Bella and Edward meet at last and talk that the love story between this human and vampire starts to unfold.
A Review of the Start of the Relationship between Bella and Edward
When Bella at last comes face to face with the handsome Edward Cullen, she is bored with her life no longer. Bella soon finds out that there is more to this mystery boy who only comes to school on rainy days than she first thought, and that includes the rest of their beautiful but mysterious family. Once Bella finds out the secret that Edward and his relatives are actually vampires who don’t eat humans, and Edward himself is in love with her, will the star crossed couple ever be able to have a relationship, or will his need for her human blood be too much to resist?
This, and so much more, can be read in the bestelling, popular, and critically acclaimed teen romance novel, Twilight by Stephenie Meyer. The first novel in the Twilight Saga, followed up by books like New Moon and Breaking Dawn, Twilight has received very positive reviews and great success with audiences around the world. This first boook by Meyer has been made into movies – popular actors like Robert Pattinson (who plays the mysterious Edward Cullen) star in the popular Twilight films. Both Bella and Edward find out quickly they are just a part in a much bigger plot of vampires and werewolves, and must show how strong their love is to one another if they want to stay together.
Why You Need to Read Bella and Edward’s Love Story in Twilight
In summary, Twilight by Stephenie Meyer is a romance fantasy novel, and one that has earned the love and fan base of girls and boys – though predominantly girls – alike. For those who like a “Romeo and Juliet” like story of the forbidden love of two lovestruck teens, then Twilight is a good novel to take a look at if you have not done so already. Again, Twilight’s popularity is so great that it has been made into popular feature films; the movies have received great reviews by many fans.
This book is recommended for preteen and teen audiences and above – while not very sexual or violent, there are some times later on the Twilight story and saga that allude to more of those themes. Now that you have a quick summary and review of Twilight, go look for the novel (or at least begin with the film) today as you follow the classic love story between the vampire Edward and the human Bella!
