This is by far the best book I've read in my junior year. It's an immediate favorite and I don't understand why I didn't engage in it as quickly as I tried to about two years ago. Thanks to so many of my friends, I tried reading the book again, and Stephenie Meyer did an excellent job of luring her audience in the storyline romance between Bella Swan and Edward Cullen. Set in Forks, Washington, Bella leaves her mother and step-father in Phoenix to give them time together, and unreluctantly stays with her father in the small town in Washington. Not always the most popular...or the most coordinated, Bella was expecting to blend in with the crowd, trying to be as unnoticed as possible. After she's made friends (a shocker to herself as well), she becomes fascinated by a small group of pale students, with alluring beauty and striking features that isolate them from the rest of the small town look. It is then the relationship between Bella and Edward start to formulate, even after countless rescuing and rude behavior, the chemistry could not be ignored any longer. This amazing novel that focuses on the power of love when the forces of good and evil clash against each other will most definitely keep you turning the pages until you have to go to the local bookstore to find [b:New Moon 49041 New Moon (The Twilight Saga, Book 2) Stephenie Meyer http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/414jgcy2FAL.SL75.jpg 3203964] (the second installment in the twilight series).
