Twilight by Stephanie Meyers

This is a fantasy book, set in sunlit Arizona; however it changes when 17-year-old Bella Swan moves to the cramped and dull Forks. The story gradually changes, however, when stories and explanations of two different backgrounds are spilled. It is set in the 21st century, and is about the drastic changes Bella has to go through when she leaves Arizona and packs her bags to go to her father, in Forks, and does not expect to like it. The main characters are Bella Swan, Edward Cullen, along with the rest of the Cullen family, and Jacob Black. Bella Swan is a stubborn, underestimated character in the book, because she is very intelligent and often finds a way to makes things her own way. Edward Cullen is a mysterious and secretive character: he is able to read minds and is dangerous in this way, because he has a slight advantage of having knowledge of specific situations over many other characters. His family range from different personalities: most tamed and others untamed, some bright and pleasant, whereas others, troubled and miserable. They are controlled by Carlisle Cullen, Edward Cullen’s ‘father’. Lastly, Jacob Black. Jacob is a mischievous, and also underestimated character as he is a shapeshifter, so therefore he is capable of many various things. I like this book, because it has a simple plot, that has been built upon to make an extraordinary story. The author wants you to be there until the very last word.
