Kelly's review
Twilight (Twilight Series, Book 1)
by Stephenie Meyer
I loved this book too! My students--even the ones who hate reading--were clamoring to borrow my copy!
SO TRUE IT ROCKS I LUV IT
Whatever. You hit dead on when you said most male students would not be interested. If they like reading why would they want to see Vampire lore ruined? (I say ruined because of the whole "skin shinning like diamonds in sun=that's why vampires don't go in the sun." What is that all about? It looks like Meyers, and others, need to return to basics and read Bram Stoker's "Dracula," now there's a good read!

General response/reaction:
I loved this book!! I read the book on a plane ride to Colorado during spring break, and by the plane ride back I was reading the third book in the serious. I have turned into a huge fan of this series. I’m not sure though I could see myself teaching the book though because of the whole romance portion of the book I think most guys may not like the book as much. This book though I would love to teach, but I don’t see that happening I see this book as more being on an English required summer reading list.
Subjects, Themes, and Big Ideas:
Love, unconditional love, soul mates, gr...more
