Twilight by Stephenie Meyer MAG
I was never in love with vampires until Twilight came out. I didn’t know it was possible, but Stephenie Meyer changed the stereotypical blood-sucking vampire into a beautiful god-like creature.
In Twilight, an average high school girl, Bella Swan, falls in love with one of the most beautiful boys at her new school, Edward, who happens to be a vampire. What does one call a stunning, mysterious vampire and his stunning, mysterious vampire family? I believe “The Cullens” would suffice.
The author’s style and characters will glue your hands to the book and your eyes to the page. In no time, the book is over. But don’t worry – there are three sequels: New Moon, Eclipse, and Breaking Dawn.
Twilight is well written from Bella’s point of view. It feels as though a movie is playing in your head. If you don’t feel that way, have no fear, the actual movie comes out November 21.
Twilight is such a magnificent book that it was a New York Times bestseller. Who would have thought that the idea for such an astonishing book could come from a dream the author had?
The theme is love conquers all, even the supernatural. Nothing stands in the way of love for Edward and Bella. Or does it?
Meyer’s style of writing will have you wanting to believe that there are gorgeous vampires roaming our world and just hopefully there will be Edwards for all of the girls who have fallen in love with this fictional yet breathtaking character. Since the characters’ love is forbidden, it only makes it better. After all, forbidden fruit tastes the sweetest.

WOOHOO!
insult is one word.
I do agree with Clear_Skies though, I think Twilight sucks. There is no true romance. He likes her because she smells good and she likes him because he's good looking. There is no character development in the entire series (except with Rosalie, she's the only character I actually like). Bella is a horrible role model, she lies to her parents, sneaks her boyfriend in her room, has no personality, and jumps off a cliff JUST because her boyfriend left her. Seriously? Ew.
Have you ever read the chronicles of vladimir tod?
It is the story of a human born vampire, who struggles with how the vampire society hates him for being born, and the slayer society wants him dead.
Added to this is the fact that he won't drink human blood (vampires in this story kill when they drink usually), and most of the time he gets by with bagged blood from the hospital.
Worst of all, there is a secret group of people who think that a vampire that is born will be a powerful ruler over everyone, vampires and humans. And Vlad thinks that it may actually be true!
So, yeah... That story is a lot better than Twilight...
