Twilight (Twilight, #1)

by Stephenie Meyer

“How often did you come here?” “I come here almost every night.” I whirled, stunned. “Why?” “You’re interesting when you sleep.”

Girl! Lock your doors, windows, and hide the key!

Just now, when Charlie asked you about that vile Mike Newton…”

MIKE IS A NICE BOY

I drifted to sleep in his cold arms.

I could never. No cold sleeps

“Your hair looks like a haystack…

So, she and I have the same hair texture?

“I love you,” I whispered. “You are my life now,” he answered simply.

Ummmm... High school is a weird time. It's definitely infatuation and not love

“I’ll always want you,” I warned him. “Forever.”

Once again, GROSS

“Well, he thinks I’m a lunatic, it’s true, but he doesn’t have a problem with you.

Emmett has some common sense

Because I knew the thoughts of my prey, I could pass over the innocent and pursue only the evil. If I followed a murderer down a dark alley where he stalked a young girl—if I saved her, then surely I wasn’t so terrible.”

I think she may also get inspiration from Dexter

“It sounded like you were having Bella for lunch, and we came to see if you would share,”

Alice is funny and I think they should just get it over and done with. Get rid of Bella

“We will be playing baseball.” I rolled my eyes. “Vampires like baseball?”

Everyone likes baseball Bella

Be careful, though. The child has no idea.” I bridled a little at the word child. “Jacob is not that much younger than I am,” I reminded him. He looked at me then, his anger abruptly fading. “Oh, I know,” he assured me with a grin.

If he's a child then so is Bella and Edward is GROSS

“What I meant to say was, don’t do what you’re doing.”

Listen to Billy

The beautiful one, the godlike one…

GROOOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

“You smell so good in the rain,”

What?

Edward stiffened,

GROSS

“Turn around! You have to take me home!” I shouted. I struggled with the stupid harness, tearing at the straps. “Emmett,” Edward said grimly. And Emmett secured my hands in his steely grasp.

Ok, so kidnapping is also illegal in Washington EDWARD

“Just let me go, Charlie.” I repeated my mother’s last words as she’d walked out this same door so many years ago.

Rude

“It was the best idea—of course it was mine.”

This the funniest thing she has said this whole book

“If you didn’t smell so appallingly luscious, he might not have bothered.

Appallingly luscious? GROSS

Emmett had my door open before the truck was stopped; he pulled me out of the seat, tucked me like a football into his vast chest, and ran me through the door.

Give me Emmett over Edward

I’m sorry for what’s been unleashed here. Truly sorry.”

Laurent seems like a good dude

Alice stepped through the front door and came toward me with her arms held out. “May I?” she asked.

Queen Alice asking for consent

her cool, hard skin was oddly comforting to me.

Maybe Bella should become a lesbian and date Alice

I can’t bear it if anyone has to be hurt because of me, especially you.

Eye roll. He's a vampire Bella

I could hear them discussing the pros and cons of New York, Atlanta, Chicago. Places I’d never seen. And would never see.

You could go to see them. Just make better decisions

I would be in his marble arms, finally safe.

That sounds viciously uncomfortable

More fiercely than I would have dreamed I was capable of, I wished for the green, protective forests of Forks…

She's so pale that she's dreaming of nature's sunscreen

“Sorry about that, Bella, but isn’t it better that your mother didn’t really have to be involved in all this?”

Ok, actually not mad at the twist

“And she did smell so delicious. I still regret that I never got to taste… She smelled even better than you do.

I want a whole story about James

I knew I was dead.

Dramatic much?

agony in his perfect voice.

GROSS

“Her blood tastes clean,” Edward said quietly. “I can taste the morphine.”

Actual gross

They gave you a few transfusions. I didn’t like it—it made you smell all wrong for a while.”

GROSS

“It was impossible… to stop,” he whispered. “Impossible. But I did.”

By the very definition of the word, he's just wrong

“Well, he seems very nice, and, my goodness, he’s incredibly good-looking, but you’re so young, Bella…”

LISTEN TO YOUR MOTHER

“You are my life. You’re the only thing it would hurt me to lose.”

Ugh, the drama of it all

Would I ever get used to his perfection?

Staaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhp

Charlie had been… difficult since my return to Forks.

Not surprised

“Twilight, again,”

Roll credits!

“for this to be the twilight of your life,

Roll credits?
