Summary

Bella Swan moves from Phoenix, Arizona to Forks, Washington to live with her father Charlie. Bella attends the local high school and becomes mesmerised with Edward Cullen who is in her biology class. Edward tries to ignore his attraction to Bella, but can't help himself. Bella is attracted to Edward Cullen and his entire family. Edward finally tells Bella he is a vampire and their love grows. When evil vampires find out about Bella, Edward must protect Bella at all cost.

For The Young at Heart

This book is a fun an exciting read. The book starts out very slow and and the main plot is at the end. I recommend this book for teen girls. I have read the first three books and they are all similar. Teen boys have no interest in Twilight.

Reviews

Edward is just fascinated with Bella, and their attraction to one another grows.

School Library Journal, February 1, 2006

In the tradition of Ann Rice and YA ttles such as Anette Curtis Klause's The 0 Silver 0 ( 1999) comes this heady romance that interwines Bella Swan's life with that of Edward, an alluring and tormented vampire.

Suggested Activities

I would have a Twilight night at the public library and watch the movie. We would have a discussion and compare the book to the movie. We would also have great snacks to enjoy.
