I picked this one up because I liked the cover. Ha ha. Loved this book, the characters actually act real. They are a bit frustrating at times, but just as if they were your friends and you wanted to strangle them sometimes. Get it, you won't be disappointed.

When Bella made the decision to move in with her father Charlie---to Forks, Washington from Phoenix, Arizona-----she was prepared for dull, boring, small town life.

There is something about Edward that draws her in, and Edward …

I agree with the other reviewers: This book is not only for young adults. It's one of those cross-over books, like Harry Potter, that's geared for adults too. I'm a grandma and I loved it.    This book is extremely well-written with excellent pacing, great dialogue and description.

Luckily for her, his band of friends are all "nice" vampires and surround her with loving protection when …
