I enjoyed this book and read just before watching the film. I thought it was a little bit different at the time.

Twilight is part love story, part chaotic tragedy. Bella, a clumsy bookworm, moves to rainy Forks, Washington, and meets Edward, a very charming vampire. Between life-threatening situations and stolen moments, their romance unfolds.

While I often wondered “Where are the adults?” and “Why doesn’t Bella value her own safety?”, the moody Pacific Northwest setting was perfection, especially the iconic baseball scene (thunderstorms + vampires = genius).

My favorite characters weren’t Bella or Edward, but the rest of the Cullen family, especially Emmett, whose ride-or-die loyalty to his family made me smile every time.

Yes, the vampire lore has some questionable moments, but that’s part of the charm. It’s ridiculous and comforting all at once, a story about the kind of love many dream about.

Siento un vacío en el corazón y en mi alma. Necesito Luna Nueva

Amo twilight, le puse 5 estrellas pero es mas por lo que me hace sentir, obvio el libro pudo mejorar en algunos aspectos pero a mi me hace sentir mariposas en el estomago. Me encanta

The book that started the craze! My favorite book in the Twilight saga by far. There's something about this story that makes it impossible to put down! In this first book we meet all the major players and Bella and Edward begin their romance. My favorite chapter is the one in which Edward reveals what happens to his skin when he goes outside in the sun (I reread it when I finished the book). The only thing that really irks me about this series is that the bad guys are pretty weak villains. Overall, worth the read, even if just to understand what everybody's raving about!
