NEW POST A. Oliver Mrs. Brown Twilight

Meyer, Stephanie. Twilight. New York: Little Brown and Company, 2005.
In response to Carlie Schmidt’s blog on Twilight by Stephanie Meyer I believe she wrote an accurate review on this novel. I was skeptical upon reading the review that Edward a main character is a vampire. I do not usually read fantasy or Science fiction books but I found this story to be a page turner and at many points in the novel you forget your reading about a vampire. I found that this story of love, desire and risk applies to all people and interests many. The fact that the love is similar in a way to Romeo and Juliet’s because their love is not written in the stars as well as they are not from the same type of family; other parallels are also seen though both texts. I found that the reader stays engaged throughout the whole novel which makes this an enjoyable read. I felt the audience could really connect with the characters; there is a little bit of Edward and Bella in all of us.
