Twilight (Twilight Saga)

I am about 15 years and a gender too old for this book. Don't get me wrong, Harry potter is really good but this book is only for younger girls. Nothing really happens, it is just a glorified diary portraying her unjustified (only because he is so 'beautiful') love for some 'beautiful' boy who turns out to be a vampire. Sweet! Great service from the seller though!

I have to admit, being the lower end of the target audience, I actually survived reading this book. I admit, it is repetitive, misogynistic and lame. Pure Mormonist progaganda, using the swooning romance to hook young girls then let them suck up the atrosities and violence of Breaking Dawn. But, as a feminist, there is elements of misogyny in how it has been critisised if you think. Think Sex and the City 2, here is a thing that young teen girls have found and hooked onto, found someone they can relate to in the world of bad role models. (on the subject of role models, bella isn't awful, she lives in a small town and isn't very social which is understandable. Girls don't have to be everything!)But instead of celebrating this, critics have killed it, scrutinising every little word that these fans hold so dear. They are finding ways of not only critisising the books but the fan-girls who love it so dear, calling them airheads and idiots. This thing unites teens of all cultures, so clebrate the effect, not just critise the bad writing (even though I am twelve and am consently working on material better than this saga of tripe).

i am in my early 30's bought for hubby but looked good so i started reading last nite read 24 pages this is from someone who hasnt read a book in ages and usually sticks to chat mag a really good book so far makes u want to read more and more

I am way off the target audience for this book! But as i love all things Vampire i thought i would give it a go! Good quick read! if you are looking for highbrow literature this won't be for you but if you want to be entertained a remember what it is like to be a teenager give it a go!

Well.....my first thought when i watched the first film was to go to my library and hire them but then i looked on amazon and saw that they were so cheap! it was barely worth the diesel to get me there. And now...? Im an avid reader and get very submerged in books, when i get a good one, but i have never read any book twice. until now. the books are so full of little details and observations that you may skim over without a second thought the first time but become obvious when you read them the second. its hard to describe, you have little OH! RIGHT!? moments all the time when a piece drops into place about things you now know are going to happen but its subtly hinted at at various points. Ive now bought all four books (and read them all twice or more) off amazon for the price, virtually, of one hardback from waterstones or whsmith! I wont give anything away about the stories but they get better and better with each book and breaking dawn is astounding in the imagination and thought that went into it, im actually really sorry that i finished it and thats there's no more! (breaking dawn is the thickest book, nearly two inches, and its that moreish - i read it in less than two days!)

Bought the Twilight audio books for my partner who is dyslexic so that he could more fully understand my Twilight obsession! He was very pleased and finished listening to the book in a couple of weeks. He loved that the CD's were broken up into 'tracks' (chapters) which made it easy for him to keep track of where he had reached. Pace and clarity of reader were good and he thoroughly enjoyed the story. Is pestering me to buy New Moon for him now...

I watched the film first and decided to buy the book to read on holiday...I couldn't put it down! Brilliant, can't wait to read the next three books!

The first book of the Twilight Saga, maybe in some ways the best of them because I love the story about Edward & Bella the most. However, I will highly recommend for you to read all 4 of them before you see the films, also read Bree Tanner before Eclipse. For me this is the best lovestory ever, and I have read the books several times, enjoyed the way they are written so much. Thank you, Stephanie Meyer!

I'd been meaning to get the Twilight saga for ages as everyone else seemed hooked on it and I was the only one who hadn't read it. I'm glad I got it now because it's amazing! I couldn't put the book down because I wanted read on to see how Bella and Edward's relationship grew and how Bella got to know about Edwards secret. I would definately recommend this book to anyone thinking about buying it, for all ages. I think this is the best book of the series.

This book is absolutely charming and impossible to put down, you will fall instantly in love with Edward, and with his relationship with Bella, whose character is also fantastic, and as the book is written in the voice of Bella it makes it even more enchanting and believable. As an extremely incompetent reader who hasn't actually read a whole book ever, this book made me able to read better and actually enjoy literature, and even buy the other three books in the Twilight series. I chose to read twilight after watching the film, but the book is soooo much better if u loved the film, or if your simply a girl or even a boy that appreciates romance and loves vampires this book is defiantly for you, so enjoy and prepare to be mesmerised!
