Amazon.com Review:
The book that started the phenomenon is now available in a deluxe collector's edition! Featuring a ribbon bookmark, cloth cover, ragged edges, new chapter opener designs, and a beautiful protective slipcase, this edition is perfect for fans and collectors alike.
Bella Swan's move to Forks, a small, perpetually rainy town in Washington, could have been the most boring move she ever made. But once she meets the mysterious and alluring Edward Cullen, Bella's life takes a thrilling and terrifying turn. Up until now, Edward has managed to keep his vampire identity a secret in the small community he lives in, but now nobody is safe, especially Bella, the person Edward holds most dear.
Deeply romantic and extraordinarily suspenseful, Twilight captures the struggle between defying our instincts and satisfying our desires. This is a love story with bite.
Product Description:
About three things I was absolutely positive:
First, Edward was a vampire.
Second, there was a part of him–and I didn’t know how dominant that part might be–that thirsted for my blood.
And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him.
“I’D NEVER GIVEN MUCH THOUGHT TO HOW I WOULD DIE– I’d had reason enough in the last few months –but even if I had, I would not have imagined it like this. . . . Surely it was a good way to die, in the place of something else, someone I loved. Noble, even. That ought to count for something.”
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, mesmerizing 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 realize is 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 extraordinarily suspenseful, Twilight will have readers riveted right until the very last page is turned.

Twilight is one of those books I can pick up and literally just not put down. I never really was that interested in vampires to begin with, but when I was told to give it a try by one of my friends I didn't regret it.
Yeah sure, the writing is a little simple and corny and times but I think that's one of the reasons a liked it so much. Sometimes reading classic literature can get boring or stiff and sometimes you just want to read something that's almost like a guilty pleasure, something to just take you away from your boring day, because to be honest what girl doesn't want their own Edward Cullen?
Twilight is exciting and has a little of everything in it. If your looking for something fun to read then I defiantly suggest Twilight.

Sorry ladies and gentlemen. I tried, I really did, but Twilight was so terrible that writing this review in itself is difficult. Quite frankly, I'm not quite sure what to criticize first. I SLAVED through the book, because it received such acclaim. Bad idea. In short, Twilight was bland, underdeveloped, and unimaginative. Period. The use of sexy prose may have saved it, but her writing style falls on its face... quite like the main character of her book, come to think of it.
The characters were flat, the plot was, well, virtually non-existent, and even the "love scenes" were disgustingly saccharine and lacked passion, realism, or conflict. Even the dialogue was ultra cheesy/gag-me-with-a-spoon: I mean, come on, "You're intoxicated by my very presence"... What, Edward? Really? Shut up. I would think that an adult woman can think of 50 million other much sexier turns of phrase that can be thrown at her that'd make her melt besides THAT garbage. I mean, I know this is YA, but ...

After all the hype, I found Twilight incredibly disappointing. It starts out pretty strong, but withing a couple chapters the narrator, Bella, and the hero Edward are already madly in love, no build-up, suspense, or obstacles in their way, other than Edward constantly claiming he is "dangerous." The real action begins toward the end of the book when a very flat bad guy shows up and (of course) wants to kill Bella for no other reason than pissing off Edward.
I do understand that Twilight is aimed at teenagers, but for anyone who's read a real vampire romance, this book is lacking in plot, characterization, and writing alike.
If you want well-written paranormal romance, I suggest Sherrilyn Kenyon, Amanda Ashley, or Karen Marie Moning, although they are all more adult and contain sexual material.
