Similar to many other people, I decided to read Twilight. At first I was skeptical about a love story between a girl and a vampire but Meyer does an amazing job of pulling the reader in with the story of Edward and Bella. Carlie’s blog was able to sway me to final read it when she described the constant suspense between Edward and Bella because of his thirst for her blood. The suspense helped me overlook the oddness of the story and kept me reading until I was completely absorbed. Carlie was also correct about the importance of setting in the book. The forests play a crucial role in the story and help keep the reader turning pages. Twilight is more a love story than anything and it helps readers relate because we’ve all had that one love interest that doesn’t fit in with our friends, Meyer just takes it to the extreme and pulls it off beautifully in Twilight.
