Book Description

Publication Date: 11 Oct 2008

When Isabella Swan moves to the gloomy town of Forks and meets the mysterious, alluring Edward Cullen, her life takes a thrilling and terrifying turn. With his porcelain skin, golden eyes, mesmerising voice, and supernatural gifts, Edward is both irresistible and impenetrable. Up until now, he has managed to keep his true identity hidden, but Bella is determined to uncover his dark secret. What Bella doesn't realise is that the closer she gets to him, the more she is putting herself and those around her at risk. And it might be too late to turn back . . .

Deeply seductive and irresistibly compelling, TWILIGHT is a love story that will stay with you long after you have turned the final page.

This deluxe slipcased edition of the book that started it all will include a ribbon bookmark, leather-like spine and cloth covers, ragged paper edges, new chapter opener designs, and other exclusives!

Review

The sexiest vampire tale for years arrived in Stephenie Meyer's TWILIGHT, about teenage Bella's chaste romance with a beautiful vampire boy. Their intensely erotic feelings are endangered by more predatory types. Guaranteed to suck in sulky 13+ girls for hours (The Times )

Will keep readers madly flipping the pages of Meyer's tantalizing debut (Publishers Weekly )

4.0 out of 5 stars Old enough to know what I like 6 Feb 2012
By Grace Rostoker
Format:Paperback
When I was a kid there were kids and adults - 'young adults' didn't exist. And there were kids' books and adult books with nothing inbetween. Times have changed, and I think on the whole for the better, in that we now acknowledge that there is a transition period between childhood and adulthood, so it seems only fair that these young adults get their own books - and that the rest of us should be allowed to read them too.

I picked up Twilight partly to see what all the fuss was about, not having seen the movies, and partly to find out what young adult literature was like, and I'm happy to admit that I enjoyed it. Yes, Bella can be a whiney little so-and-so, and when she gets older she should read Women Who Love Too Much, but I remember being an angst-ridden seventeen year old myself so I could relate to her. And much as I cringe at the idea of Edward having spent the last century or so as an arrogant teenage prat, there's no denying he's just the kind of arrogant prat that many angst-ridden girls go for - so many of us were stupid enough to always go for the out-of-the-ordinary type, because nice, everyday boys were so 'boring'.

I never expected the book to be really great literature, and I think you're bound to be disappointed if you look at Twilight with too adult eyes, but it was an engaging, fun read. I'll take off one star because the long stretches of dialogue between Bella and Edward did get a bit tedious, but the story held my interest to the end - which many more literary books fail to do.

A great thing about getting older is that you can like what you like and not care what anyone else thinks of you because of it, so I'm happy to repeat that I enjoyed Twilight and plan the read the rest of the series.... Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 stars Bite me!................ 7 May 2009
By Me read
Format:Paperback
This is YA fiction and I'm not even close to the target audience. It's been a lot of years since I belonged in the 'teen' category BUT... despite that, I loved this book! I think it might be because the 17 year old that I once was is still fresh in my mind, and if I squint when I look in the mirror I can still see her (she just got better looking over the last couple of decades *grin*).

A five star book for me is one that I have to tear myself away from and this has to be one of the better 5 star books I've read recently. I could not put it down, regardless of whether I fit in the target deomographic or not. I have no idea why I was so enamoured with this particular story but it just grabbed me, literally from the first chapter. It has it's flaws, and at times those flaws tried to pull me away from the pages while I wrestled with my beliefs but never did I feel like I couldn't go on. I'm actually mystified why this is such a great book, I wish I could put my finger on it but it escapes me. I am fond of a bit of vampire lit, it's true, but this goes beyond that....I think. I can't say the writing is superlative so it's not that.....but what is it? I wish I knew. Answers on a postcard, please.

Bella is a complete feminists' nightmare and I can see why that would put a lot of people off of her, but at 17 love is blind so I'm willing to forgive Bella on that score. Edward is so uber male that he fairly reeks testosterone and again, that may grate on some readers but lets put things in perspective, he's the ultimate predator and has had nearly a century of dominating his prey so on that score I'm willing to forgive him his overly masculine nature for now, this nurture/love thing is new for him too.....he'll get it right eventually I expect....

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing 1 Feb 2009
By J. Marshall
Format:Hardcover
ok, so im not what you would call the average reader of this kind of genre, ive certainly never read anything like it before! but i loved this book.
ok, i will admit i watch the movie before i read the books, total sin, i know! but i would never heard about twilight otherwise.
This story has many core themes running through it, love, good v evil the struggle between head and heart and many of the usual themes these "teenage books" often have, acceptance to fit in, first love, finding friends and the akward "coming of age" feelings.
However i would not simply class this as a book for teens, im an adult and i enjoyed this book immensely, bella's feelings are something we can all relate too and i dont think this book should be classed as anything to do with age.
ok, i will admit the writting isnt great, but i dont think that matters here, nobody is claiming meyer is the new austen or bronte, but unless you are reading this book from an academic perspective it makes little difference.
Meyer represents the average teen girls feelings of awkwardness and embarressment very well, and often Bella's feelings towards Edward can be a little overbearing, but isnt everyone a little over the top with their first love? as for Edward, well as a woman, need i say more? i think anyone would happily swap places with Bella here.
In summary, i loved this book, it kept me locked away for hours until i read it all, i literally couldnt put it down and i would recommend it to anyone, especially if it isnt usually your "type" of book.
