Twilight

Well...I will probably make quite a few people happy with this post. I finished the book just 3 day after starting it. I actually loved it and I couldn't put it down. It was much more than I thought it would be and was a great book.

The last time I posted I had just finished reading about Bella's first day of school and she was on her way home. At that point I hadn't gotten into the book and I hadn't realized what everybody loved about it. After that, I read more and more everyday. I got into the book and it was as if I was going into a different world when I started reading.

Anyways, back to the book.

After Bella's first day, she kept trying to figure out why Edward had been so mean to her and why he wasn't saying anything to her like the rest of the kids at school had. Edward didn't show up at school for a while after that first day. But when he did come back, Bella hadn't been expecting it. The next week she saw him at lunch and continued to get nervous about going to her next class, where she sat next to him.

Eventually, Bella and Edward got more comfortable around each other and they started talking more and more. Bella realized that she felt very comfortable around Edward, but she also felt like there was something he wasn't telling her. When Bella went to La Push, the reservation by Forks, she saw Jacob Black, an old family friend. He told her a bunch of stories about old legends around the reservation, one of them being about the "cold ones". The cold ones were basically vampires and had always been the enemy of the werewolf. Bella started to think about it and realized that that story was describing the Cullens. After a bit, she finally was sure that Edward was a vampire and that she was also in love with him.

As their relationship got deeper, they fell in love with each other and learn more about each other. Edward would keep telling Bella that she should stay away from him and that it would be safer for her. Bella can't stand to think about her life without Edward and keeps telling him that she feels safer than ever with him.

I keep thinking about something like this happening today and I feel like it could happen. Obviously not with vampires or anything, but the concept of forbidden love and somebody feeling so safe with someone else that they can't imagine their life without them.

I really did love this story, mainly because of the forbidden love part of it along with the rest of the plot. I would recommend this book to just about anyone, especially people who love stories like Romeo and Juliet that have forbidden love as a major part of the plot.

So go! Read it!
