The book that started the phenomenon is now available in a deluxe collector's edition! Featuring a ribbon bookmark, cloth cover, ragged edges, new chapter opener designs, and a beautiful protective slipcase, this edition is perfect for fans and collectors alike.
Bella Swan's move to Forks, a small, perpetually rainy town in Washington, could have been the most boring move she ever made. But once she meets the mysterious and alluring Edward Cullen, Bella's life takes a thrilling and terrifying turn. Up until now, Edward has managed to keep his vampire identity a secret in the small community he lives in, but now nobody is safe, especially Bella, the person Edward holds most dear.
Deeply romantic and extraordinarily suspenseful, Twilight captures the struggle between defying our instincts and satisfying our desires. This is a love story with bite.
Product Description
About three things I was absolutely positive:
First, Edward was a vampire.
Second, there was a part of him–and I didn’t know how dominant that part might be–that thirsted for my blood.
And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him.
“I’D NEVER GIVEN MUCH THOUGHT TO HOW I WOULD DIE– I’d had reason enough in the last few months –but even if I had, I would not have imagined it like this. . . . Surely it was a good way to die, in the place of something else, someone I loved. Noble, even. That ought to count for something.”
When Isabella Swan moves to the gloomy town of Forks and meets the mysterious, alluring Edward Cullen, her life takes a thrilling and terrifying turn. With his porcelain skin, golden eyes, mesmerizing voice, and supernatural gifts, Edward is both irresistible and impenetrable. Up until now, he has managed to keep his true identity hidden, but Bella is determined to uncover his dark secret.
What Bella doesn’t realize is the closer she gets to him, the more she is putting herself and those around her at risk. And, it might be too late to turn back. . . .
Deeply seductive and extraordinarily suspenseful, Twilight will have readers riveted right until the very last page is turned.

 Twilight Saga beautiful , especially Breaking Dawn etc. January 8, 2009
The negative responses I've seen are either very closed-minded or very.... egotistical.. or maybe very young. It seems to me that she wrote the novels first for herself and then later was viewed for the teenage audience. Twilight could easily fit in that category (especially teenage). However, she stated once that she wrote the Saga for herself-- not for teens, or for me (I'm 27) or you-it was for herself FIRST. I think you should remember that. Maybe Breaking Dawn wasn't catered to teens or to the weak-stomach....in any case, it followed exactly in the same principles that made the other books brilliant.. the passion and the brilliance of plot and the PERSONAL creativity from the author herself... you can almost feel intrusive.. as though you're reading from S. Meyer's secret diary. Instead of complaining against a novel you could never write like in comparison on your best days(sorry), you should appreciate her artistic brain and be thankful that you're actually able to partake in her creativity by reading something that she wrote that is very personal to her. You're going to have to face that she writes to cater to herself and not you, me, teens, or anyone else. Creativity shouldn't be bounded by the borders that certain groups want to create. Let her be and create and respect that eh? Not a whole lot to ask. I love ALL her books (especially Breaking Dawn) as well as The Host. She is a brilliant writer that ensnares readers of all ages and reminds us of a TRUE LOVE that we all wanted or have at one point in our lives had... or can still have. Oooohh yeahhh. Be realistic please. yep.
Twilight January 8, 2009
A fabulous book! Had a hard time putting it down. ALredy started New Moon
 Great story and characters, okay writer January 8, 2009
First, Amazon.com - they're the best. They're fast, reliable and stand behind their product.
Twilight, the story/plot and character build up are great...her writing is not the best but for teenagers, and for the times now, good enough. It might be annoying to read - maybe for some college students, b/c the writing is not the greatest...not like your Thomas Mann...but love the story and it's "clean"... would definitely pass on to my daughters when they come of age.
Great Book January 8, 2009
I am an adult but this book is still a good read. I couldn't put it down.
A keepsake January 8, 2009

I started reading Twilight way before my daughter, then realized she had gotten a copy at school and was reading it........alittle shocked at first because I had not read it all and didn't know if it was age apporipriate..............I was wrong.........and that is what is so amazing to me....that it captures the mom's and the young ones with complete down to earth just 'good writing and adventure'.........I bought my daughter this special addition for a keepsake she loved the books so much, the movie and I must admit.......its a keepsake for me too!! Can I say..........'we want more, we want more, we want moe' oh the torment to the writer of 'we want more'...............thanks for the wonderful time away from the blah everyday..........
