Isabella (Bella) Swan goes to Forks, Washington to live with her father expecting rain, lots of green stuff, and.... vampires? When quiet Bella first goes to her new school she finds herself fascinated with the god-like, beautiful, pale family: the Cullens. She some becomes obsessed with the "youngest" member of the Cullen family, Edward, her a quiet, handsome, and mysterious lab partner. Her suspicions climb when she notices Edwards uncanny disappearances, his forever changing eye color, and ice cold skin. She and Edward continue to grow closer to each other until she finally discovers the impossible, goes on the adventure of her life, nearly dies (she does that a lot), and falls in love with a monster.

-Our Rating: Oh. My. Gosh...to the tenth power! We had no idea that dead vampires could be so romantic. We, with great respect, applaud Stephenie Meyer for this excellently planned book. It was amazing! Although we want to make a note: it is NOTHING like the movie. So, if you are looking at this saying: "Really?! I thought you guys had good taste in books! Why are you reading this blood sucking, Bed-Head-Edward, and Shirtless-Jacob stuff?!?!" Well, we were once in your shoes, but now we are hooked... or bitten if you will. So if you've seen the movie and hate it, making you no longer want to read the book, we would like you to know that we too hate the movie, but really the book is so much better!
