Realistic, subtle, succinct, and easy to follow, Twilight will have readers dying to sink their teeth into it." —School Library Journal (starred review) 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. About the Author: STEPHENIE MEYER graduated from Brigham Young University with a degree in English literature. About this novel, she says, "I've always admired the ability of some authors to create situations of impossible fantasy, and then add characters that are so deeply human that their perspectives make the situation believable. I hope Twilight offers readers the same experience." Stephenie lives with her husband and three young sons in Glendale, Arizona. This is her first book. About the Performer: ILYANA KADUSHIN's numerous credits include narration for Nickelodeon and Animal Planet. She is a singer and songwriter who scores for theater, television, and film, and she released her debut album in the summer of 2004. |
