The book that started the phenomenon is now available in a deluxe collector's edition! Featuring a ribbon bookmark, cloth cover, ragged edges, new chapter opener designs, and a beautiful protective slipcase, this edition is perfect for fans and collectors alike.
Bella Swan's move to Forks, a small, perpetually rainy town in Washington, could have been the most boring move she ever made. But once she meets the mysterious and alluring Edward Cullen, Bella's life takes a thrilling and terrifying turn. Up until now, Edward has managed to keep his vampire identity a secret in the small community he lives in, but now nobody is safe, especially Bella, the person Edward holds most dear.
Deeply romantic and extraordinarily suspenseful, Twilight captures the struggle between defying our instincts and satisfying our desires. This is a love story with bite.
Product Description
About three things I was absolutely positive:
First, Edward was a vampire.
Second, there was a part of him–and I didn’t know how dominant that part might be–that thirsted for my blood.
And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him.
“I’D NEVER GIVEN MUCH THOUGHT TO HOW I WOULD DIE– I’d had reason enough in the last few months –but even if I had, I would not have imagined it like this. . . . Surely it was a good way to die, in the place of something else, someone I loved. Noble, even. That ought to count for something.”
When Isabella Swan moves to the gloomy town of Forks and meets the mysterious, alluring Edward Cullen, her life takes a thrilling and terrifying turn. With his porcelain skin, golden eyes, mesmerizing voice, and supernatural gifts, Edward is both irresistible and impenetrable. Up until now, he has managed to keep his true identity hidden, but Bella is determined to uncover his dark secret.
What Bella doesn’t realize is the closer she gets to him, the more she is putting herself and those around her at risk. And, it might be too late to turn back. . . .
Deeply seductive and extraordinarily suspenseful, Twilight will have readers riveted right until the very last page is turned.

 Magic! November 18, 2008
After reading the 1 star reviews I came to understand that some are simply unable to believe in magic. This author touches the top hat and prose flow into open hearts.
A great romance novel with a sci-fi fantasy twist November 18, 2008
I love this book and the whole series. If you are looking for a romance novel that is actually about romance instead of just page after page of meaningless sex scenes TRY THIS! Think of it as Romeo & Juliet, Pride & Prejudice or A Walk to Remember with a sci-fi/ fantasy twist. I feel that the book does a great job exploring the characters and developing the relationships, but keep in mind it is only the first book in a series and much comes later. This book is more like an introduction into the world of Vampires and the relationship of Edward and Bella. I am an adult and I love this book. For anyone who dreams about or remembers their first love this book is a great read. PS. For anyone familiar with literary terms, Edward is the perfect Byronic hero.
