Great book!

Wasn't able to mentally force myself to finish the first few chapters of this book. It may have fans raving about it like crazy but it was truly a huge effort on my part just getting through the first chapter -- the progression was irritatingly slow. I'm sure this author has amazing literary talent, but I'm incapable of immersing in this particular series and line of characters. Perhaps I'll try again getting through this someday. I just hope it wasn't as poorly executed as the movies.

I love this book. I wouldnt say it's brilliant or literary genius but there is something simple and amazing about the plot. Its like comfort food. I've read it three times. The first time, I couldnt put it down, and the 2 times after it was a nice light enjoyable read. A big piece of apple pie a-la-mode.

first read this book in grade 5, I loved it then, and now in grade 10 still enjoy it, though I prefer City of Bones ;3

I can honestly say that I enjoyed this book... well a little. The next books in the series were much better written. I mean, Bella simply whined the whole way through, and was woeful without Edward. The female lead should have mean stronger. Overall, I've read better books. Try City of Bones.

I have read this book yet again! and I enjoyed it as much as the other times! The details are so precise and well, detailed that I felt like I was reading it for the first time !

Shy, quiet, and clumsy Bella moves from Phoenix, Arizona to live temporarily with her father while her mother travels with her new husband. There, she finds herself intrigued by the mysterious Edward Cullen and his family. She later learns that they are vampires. Trouble starts brewing when James, another vampire, catches a whiff of Bella's scent, and starts a deadly hunt for Bella's blood.

Bella Swan moves from Phoenix, Arizona to live with her father in Forks, Washington to allow her mother to travel with her new husband, a minor league baseball player. After moving to Forks, Bella finds herself involuntarily drawn to a mysterious, handsome boy, Edward Cullen. She eventually learns that he is a member of a vampire family who drinks animal blood rather than human blood. Edward and Bella fall in love, while James, a sadistic vampire from another coven, is drawn to hunt down Bella. Edward and the other Cullens defend Bella. She escapes to Phoenix, Arizona, where she is tricked into confronting James, who tries to kill her. She is seriously wounded, but Edward rescues her and they return to Forks, having killed James.

17 year-old Bella Swan moves with her father to a dreary place called Forks because she doesn't want anything to do with her mom's new relationship. Her new school is quite different than her old one in Pheonix.There, she makes new friends, and does well in classes. But something else has caught her eye. A mysterious, pale group of students sit alone at their own lunch tables, barely speak to anyone, and always stay in their group. But Bella gets to know them better when she is seated beside the handsome Edward Cullen from the group. At first, Edward is furious to be near Bella. But the more time Bella spends with him, the more her love for him grows. But that's not the only thing that is discovered. Edward has a secret. And Bella is about to find out what it is...

About three things I was absolutely positive. First, Edward was a vampire. Second, there was part of him — and I didn’t know how potent that part might be — that thirsted for my blood. And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him. (Permanently etched in my mind...)
