RECOMMENDATION

This book was unlike any other book it went into

detail and was a great romance book. Anybody

interested in vampire or werewolf books would love

twilight and I recommend it to everybody it’s a

great piece of literature and it will throw you off

what the ending is. One of my favorite parts is

when Edward and Bella go to the dance together.

This book has many interesting parts so you will

never have just one favorite.

SUMMARY

When her mother gets remarried, Bella Swan moves in with her father, Charlie, who lives in a small town on Washington's Olympic Peninsula, where it rains nearly all the time. There she get a truck that is new to her and she meets Edward and soon she's fallen madly in love with him. She also discovers that he and his family are vampires, which doesn't bother her at all.

But it bothers Edward; even though his family long ago swore off human blood in favor of animals', he still worries for her safety, both with him and with his family, who control their lust for human blood only by willpower. Bella’s scent is then

picked up by a tracker vampire James who sets

on a mission to hunt Bella down for sport.

TRACKERS

The Cullens, who now consider Bella part of her

family are determined to protect her and

separate Bella from Edward, sending the girl

back to Phoenix. Bella stays in a hotel and

receives a phone call from James telling her he

had her mom and gave her instructions on

what she needs to do if she wants to see her

alive.

Bella surrenders herself to James, but Edward

shows up and fights him. The rest of Cullens

joins in to fight the tracker but he manages to

bite Bella in her hand before he’s killed.

Edward doesn’t want Bella to turn into a

vampire and begins to suck venom infected

blood from the wound. He’s now tasting the

blood, the smell of which he found so hard to

resist.

He was urged to stop by his adopted father

Carlisle Cullen. Bella was saved and after she’d

recovered, she returned to Forks to attend

prom with Edward. As the two walk into the

night, Bella exposes herself and pleads with

him to embrace her and turn her into one of his

kind with a bite to her neck. Edward refuses.
