Zoey just wants to fit in like any normal girl but what she doesn’t know is that she is not any normal girl she is destined to be a High Priestess of he vampire world. Zoey just wants to fit in and she doesn’t want to be different she just wants to be normal. While she is going through the change she makes some new best friends and some new enemies. Zoey falls in love with Erik and he helps he through the change. There are so many things that go wrong for Zoey and she is on a mission to make everything right once again but will it stay that way?

This is such a cool book. It is different but in a good way. There are so many mysterious characters that Zoey has to learn about. I love the way the book is written from Zoey’s point of view and it explains how Zoey is feeling the whole time. Because there are so many mysterious characters it keeps you interested in the book the whole time you are reading it. One of the best things about the book is most people will be able to relate to this book in some way or another and want to find out more about one character more than others, so it keeps you intrigued.

I recommend this book to all mature readers aged 10+. I think any younger than 10 might find it hard to understand or read. There are some bits in this book that are a bit inappropriate and there is also some swearing in it so I guess you have to be quite mature to read this book. It is not filled with inappropriate scenes but there are 1 or 2. I don’t think that having 1 or 2 inappropriate scenes is a fault I just think that if you do not understand what it is all about then the book might confuse you.

In conclusion I think this book is great and I loved reading it. This book is part of a series of five books and I am definitely planning on reading the whole series. I think that a lot of people would love this series but there still will be people who don’t like these types of books. I really loved reading this book and I think you should read it too.

**Title: Twilight** Author: Stefanie Meyer Number of pages: 434 ISBN: 978-905654-41-3

This book is all about a girl named Bella. Bella moved towns to live with her dad for a little while. It’s the middle of the semester and Bella has to start at a new school, she knows no one. Bella meets a guy named Edward, Edward is very mysterious. Bella does not know why but Edward seems to hate her. Bella and Edward instantly fall in love. Edward tries to avoid Bella and he says for her to keep away from him for her own good, but she doesn’t. Bella was standing by her car staring at Edward from across the car park when a car goes off course, Edward somehow gets over to Bella so quickly and pushes the car away with just his hand. From then on Bella knows there is something different about Edward but what? Bella knew Edward had a secret and she knew she was in love with him. Bella is on a mission and she isn’t giving up, she has to learn more about Edward.

This is a great book. It kept me interested the whole time I was reading it. I love how Stefanie Meyer made a character (Edward) so mysterious and so intriguing. Edward had so much to him so you wanted to get to know him. Even though this is not real the book made you feel as if you were there. I really enjoyed the whole book I think she did a great job. I couldn’t choose a part of the book I liked more because the whole thing really appealed to me.

It’s hard to find a fault in this book but I think maybe Stefanie Meyer put in too many details that didn’t matter so much. Like she over did some of the characters such as, James the vampire who kills humans for food, I think she made him too evil when she said herself she didn’t want him to be evil she just wanted him to be a vampire. It wasn’t a big fault just that is the only thing I could comment on.

I recommend this book to all readers from 10 years of age and over. I enjoyed this book and I know a lot of other people who have enjoyed this book even more than me.

Over all I think this was a great book and Stefanie Meyer has done a great job. This was the first book Stefanie Meyer ever wrote and I think she has done very well. This book has been a big hit all over the world. There are 4 books in the series and I am definitely looking forward to reading the next book of the series.
