I was ninety-nine point nine percent sure I was dreaming.
The reasons I was so certain were that, first, I was standing in a bright shaft of sunlight - the kind of blinding clear sun that never shone on my drizzly new hometown in Forks, Washington - and second, I was looking at my Grandma Marie.
This is such an easy book to enjoy, I have a feeling it, and the first in the ‘verse Twilight, will be one that can be reread and enjoyed time and again. In essence it is a teenage paranormal love story. With all the melodrama and hormones that might imply. Bella, the protagonist from Twilight is still in Forks, and still in love with Edward Cullen, and yes, he is still a vampire. Things like that don’t really change.
But things don’t really get any easier either, especially not when a little paper cut can turn a vampire from a relatively normal individual into a blood crazed fiend.
I really enjoy Meyer’s writing; it is gripping and entertaining. A real page turner.
