Twilight by Stephenie Meyer


Twilight tells the story of Bella, an average 17 year old girl who moves to Forks, decide to live with her father after her mother remarries a traveling minor league baseball player. In Forks, she meets Edward, a mysterious, gorgeous, private student, who tends to travel in a pack with his family. Edward is immediately repulsed by Bela, and the two develop a mutual dislike for the other. A few months of repugnance, their relationship is changed when Edward saves Bella from a potentially fatal car accident. Bella immediately knows there's something not quite human about Edward, but he retains his distance until Bella finds herself in another dangerous situation. Edward again saves her, and the two develop a friendship that quickly turns into an exclusive relationship. Bella discovers that Edward and his family are vampires, but who have chosen a "vegetarian"  and survive off of animal blood instead of killing humans.

 

Bella and Edward develop a very deep, intense relationship very quickly, but maintains their "virtue" despite their zealous attraction to each other. The relationship appears to be perfect, and for a while it is. During a baseball game between Edward and his vampire family, a trio of rogue vampires stumble upon their game, and James a member of a smaller clan immediately makes a move for Bella as a "snack". The protective nature of Edwards family creates a deadly game of cat and mouse between Bella and James, the vampire who is determined to drink Bella dry. Edward's family devises a plan to create a diversion in the hopes of distancing Bella from James. 


The plan backfires, and Bella is lured into a trap James as set because James tricks Bella into coming to him in order to save her mother. Before James can finish off Bella, Edward attack, saving Bella and destroying James. To everyone's surprise, Bella has been bitten, and Edward must suck out the poison or allow her to become a vampire. Edward, believing that once a person becomes a vampire they are doomed for Hell, refuses to put Bella's soul in jeopardy and sucks out the poison. Things start to return to normal, but the story ends with James' mate, Victoria, seeking revenge for the mate Edward stole from her. 


Love and Romance is the first major theme of the book. Vampire brings-out an image of supranatural creatures that thirsty to human blood. However, in this novel Edward described as a vampire who drank animal blood instead of humans. The relationship betweenn Bella and Edward isn't the only example of love and romance, of course. There is an irony between Bella and jacob too. Bella flirting with Jacob is the most obvious example, but Bella choose Edward instead Jacob. 

In this novel Bella Swan learns that there is more to the world than she thought. Bella must face the fact that vampires are real. This novel about high school romance, between a young girl and a hundred-year-old vampire. Twilight has appealed to so many readers that it made it onto theNew York Times bestseller list.
