Twilight

Fall in love with the addictive, suspenseful love story between a teenage girl and a vampire with the book that sparked a "literary phenomenon" and redefined romance for a generation (New York Times). Isabella 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, Isabella'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 Isabella, the person Edward holds most dear. The lovers find themselves balanced precariously on the point of a knife -- between desire and danger. Deeply romantic and extraordinarily suspenseful, Twilight captures the struggle between defying our instincts and satisfying our desires. This is a love story with bite. It's here! #1 bestselling author Stephenie Meyer makes a triumphant return to the world of Twilight with the highly anticipated companion, Midnight Sun: the iconic love story of Bella and Edward told from the vampire's point of view. "People do not want to just read Meyer's books; they want to climb inside them and live there." -- Time "A literary phenomenon." -- The New York Times

Having enjoyed the movie, I decided to dive into the entire Twilight Saga - and I’m so glad I did. The book is far better than the movie, offering a deeper, more intense look at the characters and their emotions. The writing pulls you into Bella and Edward’s world in a way the screen simply couldn’t capture. It’s addictive, mysterious, and undeniably captivating.

Didn’t love the first 2/3 but the ending got interesting. I feel like Twilight is kind of a YA classic but I was too young to read them when they came out so I’m giving them a shot!

jsem neskutečně překvapená tím, jak moc se mi to actually líbilo. bála jsem se, že u toho budu trpět, nebudu chtít vůbec číst a strávím u toho minimálně tři měsíce, ale světě div se, je to první kniha tohoto roku, kterou jsem přečetla ani ne za sedm dní. bavila mě. velká písmena, čtivost, akce... tohle všechno byly veliký výhody za který jsem moc ráda. ani mi to nepřišlo tak strašně trapný jako ten film. musím vážně uznat, že Stmívání je jedna z nejlépe napsaných YA romantik co jsem zatím četla. i když měla Bella občas přeslazený řeči ohledně Edwarda, jako např. jeho andělský hlas a tvář, dokonalá pleť atd., pořád jsem to nějakým záhadným způsobem zvládala číst lépe než jiné zamilované příběhy. . 5*/5* sečteno a podtrženo, myslím, že pokud si to chcete přečíst ale bojíte se, jděte do toho! čte se to vážně rychle, není to nudné a písmenka jsou veliká... co víc si přát!

I enjoyed this book as I'd recently re-watched the film, and I like to have the visualisation when reading a book that's been made into a film. As usual there is far more detail in the book, which I enjoyed, the book itself is not particularly well written in my opinion, but still readable if you enjoyed the films. I will read the remaining books in due course - I don't think I could cope with them one after the other!

Este libro me encantó desde el principio. Hizo que me enganchará más con la lectura y empecé cómo lectora. No es una obra de arte de la literatura pero sin duda a una generación nos abrió la puerta de la literatura. Le guardo un cariño super especial.❣️❣️❣️

re-read 2018 Honestly, I forgot how much I enjoy this book. It is not, by any means, the best book ever written. Not even close! But it's so FUN. Reading this was just an absolute blast and so nostalgic for me. I was very much a twilight fan girl back when the series was first released and I can't believe I haven't re-read it since that first time. The fact that I don't have this entire series reviewed on here is crazy! There's definitely a lot more I noticed this time around that I was too young and naive to notice the first time; a lot that I now find to be super problematic. I mean, we KNOW this isn't a great book and that's ok! It was still such an entertaining read. Can't wait to go on to New Moon!

I loved the book so much! It was very eye opening for me since I’ve only seen the movies. It was a wonderful experience and it just made my love (and obsession) for twilight even stronger.

"Well, do you find me attractive, in that way, at all?"

He laughed and lightly rumpled my nearly dry hair.

"I may not be a human, but I am a man," he assured me.

I love how honest and blunt he is.

He rolled his eyes. "Of all the things about me that could frighten you, you worry about my driving."

I love how sassy Edward can be.

I stared straight ahead as I passed the Volvo, but from a peripheral peek, I would swear I saw him laughing.

My stomach twisted as I realızed what he must have meant. He must see how absorbed I was by him; he must not want to lead me on ... so we couldn't even be friends… because he wasn’t interested in me at all.

Of course he wasnt interested in me, I thought an- grily, my eyes stinging-a delayed reaction to the onions.

He tilted his head slowly and touched his cool lips to mine for the second time, very carefully, parting them slightly. And then I collapsed. "Bella?" His voice was alarmed as he caught me and held me up. "You... made... me... faint," I accused him dizzily. What am I going to do with you?" he groaned in exasperation. "Yesterday I kiss you, and you attack me! Today you pass out on me!"
