REVIEW: TWILIGHT

REVIEW: TWILIGHT

The story was written by Stephany Meyer in 2003.

The plot is about Bella Swan, a seven- years- old girl that moves to Folks, a rainy and cloudy place in Washington, to live with her father. Bella attracts attention among their colleges and several students are quickly her friends.

In one of the science class, Bella knows Eduard Cullen, a strange boy who seems to be repulsed by her. Eduard got Bella´s attention but he disappears for few days. One morning, in the school parking, Eduard appears to save Bella´s life with his hands stopping a van. From that moment on, they start a friendship. Bella wants to discover how Eduard saved her life. After a friend of the family, Jacob Black, tells her a local tribal legend, she concludes that Eduard and his family are vampires who drink animal blood.

They initiate a relationship and Eduard confess Bella that he initially avoided Bella because the scent of her blood was too desirable to him. Over time, Edward and Bella fall in love.

Their relationship is affected when James, a nomadic vampire, arrives in Forks, and wants to catch Bella for sport.

Eduard´s family will do all the necessary to keep Bella safe and she shows her desire to become a vampire, but Eduard refuses.

I recommend  it if you like vampire stories and if you like catchy stories. It is a story for teenagers, but I wanted to read the book because I liked the film and the 4 books that I read in Spanish, but you should read the book before watching the film.

Although it is not a best seller, it has got a big success in book shops and cinemas.
