Twilight is about a high school girl, Bella who is totally in love with Edward who loves her equally. However, the problem lies in their passion gaining epic proportions and possibly causing Bella's death. See, Edward is a vampire and he is having a hard time controlling the blood lust that Bella arouses in him. Edward agonizes over this but Bella won't give Edward up, no matter the cost or risk to her life. It should be interesting. So far (chapter 2) it's really good so we'll see. I'll let you know.
Update: Holy Cow! I just finished Twilight by Stephenie Meyer. Awesome! I went out today, before I finished the final chapter to buy the next book - New Moon. It was just one of those books that I couldn't stop reading. I recommend it to anyone. I think it is considered a "teen fiction" book but it definitely goes beyond that genre - kind of like Harry Potter. It's so reminiscent of being in high school and having those feelings of your "first love" again. It absolutely takes you back to that first time when you have that unbelievable heart-stopping, obsessed feeling for another person (for the first time) and it's so all-consuming you think you're going to explode. It was refreshing to remember that. Maybe that's why I loved this book. Maybe because I'm at an age where high school seems so far away (even though I work in a high school). It's those feelings. It's hard to recall the angst but this book allowed me to remember and it was sort of sweet. Read it. I think you'll love it too.
