Advantages: The most gripping books I have read in a long time Disadvantages: N/A
...infatuated with writing their story. She searched for the names, Edward since it was old fashioned but romantic and Isabella, the name she had reserved the daughter she didn?t have. It was interesting to read that Rosalie was originally going to be Carol, and Jasper was going to be Ronald.
There are 4 books in the saga ? ?Twilight?, ?New Moon?, ?Eclipse? and ?Breaking Dawn?, there is also a fifth book, which has so far been left uncompleted, entitled ?Midnight Sun?, there is more about that below.
All the books revolve around Isabella Swan, the leading female of the story, and her love for Edward Cullen. Edward is a vampire, and is part of a Coven of ?vegetarian? vampires (don?t drink human blood), lead by Carlisle, he has his wife, Esme, and his adopted children, Edward, Rosalie, Jasper, Alice and Emmett. Children is perhaps the wrong word to...

Advantages: A great way to fall into a story that you will keep on loving, after the credits.. Disadvantages: The sequel can't come fast enough!
...Hands up who here has never heard of Twilight? I would be surprised if anyone hadn?t heard of the film, some perhaps haven?t heard that it came from a novel, but still if you haven?t heard of it I would be incredibly shocked! It isn?t something that is in obscurity anymore, however when I originally read the books they were not perhaps the best known novels out there..

Advantages: Complete guilty pleasure romance Disadvantages: Potential embarassment at watching a "teen" film
...I went to see Twilight at the cinema recently, head hung low at the shame of it all. Twilight, you see, is a teenage romance novel about vampires and apparently, abstinence, that has taken America by storm, which has now been turned into a film. I am American, I am not, however, a teenager. Not by a long shot. I blame Facebook. Were I not forced into Facebook by long distance pals, I probably wouldn't have bothered with this Twilight malarkey. I was confronted with a quiz on facebook entitled "Who is your Twilight guy?" Well of course I then had to know, this kind of thing is of vital importance in the land of superpokes and such like. Apparently my Twilight guy would have to be Edward, THE guy in Twilight as far as I could tell. The hot swoony vampire played by the guy who plays Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter.
