i will adress some points people bring up about twilight:
1) Bella is a shallow, Mary Jane who has NO backbone at all and depends on her boyfriend.
- Bella is a CHARACTER. She is not you or me. Characters have characteristics that are ALL THEIR OWN. Yeah, i know you say thats not an excuse. ill think of something better later.
2) The Vampires in twilight are not how vampires are supposed to be!! They're too much like humans.
- Who said that all vampires have to be the same? Its Stephanie Meyer's story, she can do whatever she wants with it. If you don't like it, that's okay, but its not a very good point too argue. That's an element Stephanie Meyer added to her story. HER STORY!! Also, the Cullens aren't the only vampires in twilight! They're supposed to be an exception to the other vampires in the book - the ones that portray your typical image. Is the volturi bad enough for you?? the newborns?? most people who come up with points about this series only read the first book, which is THE FIRST BOOK. it.. introduces you to a series. If you don't know what im talking about, then you have false opinions about the first book alone.
3) This book is all descriptions about edward.. and edward.. and edward.. its annoying!!
-ill have to admit, the first book is mainly about adward. It IS a romance book after all. If you also complain that theres no plot, there is. These books are a part of a series.If the first one is mainly romance, if you say there is no plot THAT IS THE PLOT. Trust me, the rest of them are filled with both. Truly, twilight is not my favorite book in the series. That would be new moon or eclipse. Theyr'e both filled with romance, drama, action, mystery... i love these books!

that propably didnt convince anyone... it was sorta rude and not very convincing. im more convincing in person!!!
ill make it better when i have more time.
ADIOS!!

Before you, Twilight, my life was like a moonless night. very dark, but there were stars- points of light and reason... And then you shot across my sky like a meteor. Suddenly everything was on fire; there was brilliancy, there was beauty. when you were gone, when the meteor had fallen over the horizon, everything went black. Nothing had changed, but my eyes were blinded by the light. I couldn't see the stars anymore. And there was no more reason for anything.'

Have you ever read a book that you just don't want to put down? And when you get enough strength to do it, the book taunts you? Well, Twilight is the best book I have ever read and it does just that. Being the first book of the Twilight series; it shows the true love of two very different people. But can love survive the dark secrets of the one your meant to be with? Well....... you'll have to read it to find out, and trust me it's a quick read. But, when it's done you'll be dying to to see what ...more

This book was AMAZING. I absolutely loved it & I can tell I can tell that I will definitely be reading the rest of this series! Bella & Edward's relationship is so sweet because he has to be cautious all the time not to kill her so you can tell it's true love. It's so sweet! I envy Bella so much! :)
Everyone should at least read this book out of the series because that's all it will take to get you reading the other three. ...more
