Twilight

Twilight is set in a gloomy, rainy small town named Forks, where Isabella Swan moves to go and live with her father, where she starts a new high school. This is where she meets the very mysterious, irresistible, pale faced, golden-eyed and bronze haired Edward Cullen.

I hardly ever read books, as reading is not one of my strong points. It is something I usually find more of a chaw than an enjoyable hobby, but Twilight was an exciting and hypnotic page-turner, I couldn't put down.

Isabella Swan, otherwise known as Bella is determined to uncover the mystery that surrounds Edward Cullen and his family. Once she discovers his dark secret of his true identity, she becomes closer and more involved with dangerous and risky situations that threaten not only her life, but others that are close to her. Her love for him makes everything she encounters worthwhile and he also will do anything to protect her.

The author Stephanie Meyer writes in a very seductive way, which really encapsulates this teenage love story. It is high in sexual tension that grows even stronger throughout the book as they become closer. Edward has to fight against the will to both make love to her and resist her infectious potent perfume her human body exudes.

I have just started the next book in the series, New Moon and am looking forward to seeing the film adaptation and how well it compares to the read. I really recommend Twilight and especially for those like me, who often find it a little too easy to put a book down!
