The good thing about this book is that the beginning isn't boring like alot of books I read. It catches you right from the start and is never boring. When I first heard of this book (I read it because since it became a movie) I didn't think I'd like it because it's a romance but it turned out to be really good. A Must Read.

Meyer (the author) seems to be a good storyteller but she seems a little iffy on the writing side. Overall this was an interesting read for about 9-year old's and up because of the difficulty of perception of story and/or difficult word comprehension, not due to maturity issues. Lastly, from what I've read, this book seems more towards females than males though it I'm sure it would be enjoyed by everyone.

What is up with common sense saying it is too long? All of the twilight books are long, but after you read them, you will wish that they were longer. And it deserves way more than three stars. More like 507 if you ask me (or any sane person who has read the books).

this book is soo wonderful. at the beginning it's semi- boring but then it gets better and better! I couldn't put the book down! The worst is they kiss.... It describes it but it's only as sexual as you think it is. Edward... Oh, he's like the perfect boyfriend ever! I love his character! I wish he were real! And bella is like the perfect small town girl.... I wish i were like her.. Well I'm in love with twilight, and everyone should read it... PARENTS: if you have a child under ten, or that you suppose is too long: read the book first! Thank you, TwilightLover a.k.a. spanishbarmoon

This book is so,so,so, OMG! Iwanted to read this book all in one day and i almost did, but i wanted to save the pure awesomest for tomorrow and today is tomorrow and i finished the book and read the first 3 chapters of New Moon. This book is as good as it gets. Do you want to read something different from the cool magic of Harry Potter (i am also a big harry potter fan) then this is the book you have you read. My mom finally let me read it and i got it for christmas. but it was so good i stayed up till 1 reading. read this book and i really think you will like it! You can refer to me as Spova Lover.

OMG HEY GUYS! I JUST WANTED TO SAY TWILIGHT IS A VERY GOOD BOOK! (SO FAR) I HAVE ONLY READ TO PG:38 AND CHAP: 4 BUT I HAVE HEARD THIS BOOK IS VERY COOL! ROMANCE, VAMPIRES, ROMANCE, DID I MENTION ROMANCE???? LOL BUT READ THIS BOOK... I AM ONLY 11 BUT MY PARENTS LET ME READ THIS BECAUSE THEY DON'T MIND ME LEARNING HARDER WORDS SO... UMM YA! LOL I JUST LOVE TWILIGHT SO FAR!!! I'M GONNA TRY TO FINISH IT BY THE TIME MY WINTER BREAK IS OVER! I AM IN 5TH GRADE MY NAME IS MIKAELA AND THANKS FOR READING THIS REVIEW!!! BYE! (TWILIGHT ROCKS!!!!!!!!)

I like this book. I thought it was a sweet, romantic fantasy adventure. But there is too much fuss over the book and movie.

I absolutely loved this book, I dont know anyone who hates it. A mentaly exhilarating book. The best book I've ever read I would give 100 stars if i could but sadly I can only give it 5! I say it's a must read for anyone 10+!

I thought that this book is the best book that I've evr read in my life....I'm usually a very slow reader and it's hard for me to really sink into a book and want to finish it as soon as possible! But I finished this book in 1 day! I could not, and would not put the book down unless I absolutlely had to! Lol....I def recommend reading this book....It has alot of ramantic stuff in it so I mean if your not into that I wouldn't recommend you reading it...BUT it also has alot of action, and humor so it's pretty well balanced. I say anyone say 12 and up, it would be appropriate for. But it does depend on your parents of course! But if they are okay with it! Read this book! You won't regret it! I can't wait to read the rest and see the movie!!! :-)

It was a good book that I have read in a LONG time. This book is one of those books that is either you LOVE it or you HATE it. I have found out that many people dislike it. I was looking for a book to read in my free time my friend told me about it and I finished it in less than 5 days. The begining I must say doesnt get you hooked but the middle-end is wonderfull. It is good for ages 9+ I think.

I dont believe in banning books. I also don't believe in giving children more than they can handle. I enjoyed this book very much. From the start, I did my best to read this story from my 11 and 12 year old daughters' perspectives. They are avid readers, and had asked me to purchase the books for them. I had heard about some more mature content, and so I decided to read them first and then discuss the books together before they read them. I could see how a young girl can get very caught up in Edward. Even as an adult I adored him! The fact that Bella is fairly independent was a positive, but there were two points that bothered me; Bella does become completely wrapped up in Edward, she depends on him to rescue her from her clumsiness as well as her humanity on a reguar basis, and is this what a healthy relationship looks like? The other point is that Bella constantly lies to her parents. She calls her mom her best friend, yet refuses to be honest with her. All through the book Bella is extremely dishonest. In all reality, it is healthy for a teenage girl to have her own life and identity apart from her parents. However, constant lying and dishonesty to parents and friends is probably not the best example I can think of for my girls. However, it did give us a good springboard for discussion of what a healthy relationship should look like. This book has given us more opportunities for frank and open discussions, so for that I am grateful!

This book is very interesting and it hooks you and grabs you and makes you want to read the next in the series. A very fun read and I am so glad I have 3 more to read. The only down side was in the beginning...I thought Bella was way too angry a teenager...but heck it has been so long since my girls were teenagers, maybe that is the way they are these days http://astore.amazon.com/booksynopsis-20/

Book one was great! My nieces and my 10 year old daughter raced to see who could finish it. They loved it so much I had to see for myself. I finished all four books in about a week and a half. (a huge task considering I am a full time mom, wife, PTA member, and I have a 5 hour a day job outside the home) That is how much I loved them. However, I decided that my 10 year old daughter was not ready for book 3 and definitely not book 4. They were just a little too mature for her despite her being very grown up. A word of advice to other moms out there-Read the books first to decide if your kids are ready for the content.

Twilight is my all time favorite book. It was an awesome book, and I was hooked immediately, and read it in one day, as well as the others.:)

I love this book! and I disagree with all of the harsh criticisms given by some of these people. I feel that this book was a very exceptional piece by Stephanie Meyer. It is loaded with tons of literary devices and extraordinary diction choices. It takes you to another world with vampires and werewolves.

This book is absolute garbage; how it ever got published is beyond me. It read like a teenage fan-fic and the first 3/4 of it almost put me to sleep. It's amazing how anyone could have liked this book; to me it was utter slop. Young readers should be setting their eyes on better reads than this. All in all, don't waste your time or money. There's better out there.

As a mother to a 6th grader, and an avid reader myself, I was thrilled when my daughter came home with Twilight and could not put it down. I had heard about it being a great book for middle-schoolers and was fine with it, until one of the parents of a girl in my girl scout troop told me he was not going to allow his daughter to read it. At that point, I decided I better read it before allowing my daughter to read the rest of the series. I am so glad that I did...this book is fantastic. The storyline and imagery are every teenage girl's fantasy romance (and it's just that, a fantasy). Of course there are vampires, blood, and sensuality, but it not above what any child could watch during an afternoon anime cartoon on TV. If you are concerned with allowing your middle-schooler to read the book, I highly recommend that you read it yourself and not base your decision on others' input because the majority of adults speaking have not read the book. Judge for yourself...because I did and have decided it's okay for her to read, my daughter is now sitting in the living reading 2 chapters of Ecclipse (the 3rd book in the series) rather than watching TV before going to bed.

The good thing about this book is that the beginning isn't boring like alot of books I read. It catches you right from the start and is never boring. When I first heard of this book (I read it because since it became a movie) I didn't think I'd like it because it's a romance but it turned out to be really good. A Must Read.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It is my favorite out of the saga. Oddly enough my school library didnt get this book till they had all the others so this was the last one I read. Bella and Edwards relationsip in this book is alot less um... whats the right word....... I think deep..... maybe..... in this book. It is a very good book. P.S Dont read the first book last. Lol!!! :-)

Dude you don't know how to spell if you talk like that I don't think you should be reading a mature book like this.
