 AMAZING. November 21, 2008

My mum put me onto the Twilight Saga books. She happened to see them in a shop and thought the front covers looked good.
I know you should never judge a book by it's cover but in this case the cover doesn't do the books justice.
At first I wasn't sure if they would appeal to me - I mean after all I am 27 years old and these are really aimed at a younger age group. I am a huge fan of the whole Vampire novel genre so I thought I might as well give them a go - nothing ventured, nothing gained.
I was gripped by these books from the first paragraph and read all four of them in one weekend. It literally took all my will power to put them down.
I won't spoil the plots for people by writing about them here but in my opinion you will be able relate to all the characters. You'll feel Bella's pain regarding her relationships with Edward and Jacob, but you will also get caught up in the romance and drama of the whole story.
If you aren't sure whether you would like these books then my advice would be to give them a go. You'll be surprised at how much they will appeal to you and soon you'll become hooked. (I can't wait for the film release now - I am sure it will live up to my expectations)
A pretty good ending, but has been left wide open for continuation... November 18, 2008

Breaking Dawn begins with the last days of Bella's human life, and then continues with the marriage of Bella and Edward, and what happens beyond that. And this is where I don't want to write a spoiler, so I'll skirt around it the best I can. The newlyweds go off on a beautiful honeymoon and have a wonderful start to life and husband and wife - but in true Twilight style, things don't stay normal for long.
They travel back to the rest of the Cullen clan, and before long, all hell has broken loose, with Bella right in the centre of all the trouble. It's now time for everyone to pull together, despite their differences, and fight against what is threatening them and their very existence. Bella is prepared to fight for her life and her determination, as well as her new immortal form reveal power she never knew she had. But will it be enough? Can Bella and her allies survive the biggest threat to all vampires - more vampires? Only one way to find out...
After reading this, I still preferred the third book, Eclipse. Yes, there's tons of action to be crammed into this book, but I still felt there were bits that could have been trimmed down. I didn't see the 'twist' coming but I wasn't altogether surprised because I've seen a very similar storyline in one of my favourite drama series. However, it was a great ending to the saga, but it's also left it wide open for continuation, if Stephenie Meyer decides she wants to pocket a few more quid. And fair play to her if she does. I'll definitely continue reading if she writes more!
Good but not that good. November 15, 2008

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and I was completely caught up in it as I read it. I loved every second and was so enthralled I ignored everything except school, sleep and food or two days. I loved the ending, but when I reread it I could see there were serious flaws in the ending. The whole series is about Bella making a choice - living with the love of her life and making huge sacrifices or having a normal human existence. In the end she gets both. Bella had always been simply a voice to tell the story, without much personality. But what little she had ebbs away in the last book. I still think of it as one of my favourite books, but I feel shallow doing so because all it did was give me, a tween girl, exactly the fairy tale I wanted to read.
 breaking dawn- disappointment November 11, 2008

I won't write anything elaborate like most other reviews. (Spoilers by the way)
The previous books were fairly compelling- and Ive read a hell of a lot of books of this genre. Its all been done before, though other writers haven't been as successful in popularity. I will give it two stars for the simple fact it was the only book i couldn't really predict- Jacob imprinting on Bella's daughter (admittedly a bit of a surprise for me) and the utterly disappointing ending (yes, it really had me fooled that something tragic and brilliant was going to happen). I expected some spectacular fight, and i was sadly mistaken. It was almost as if Stephenie Meyer was too afraid to kill off any characters or even injure them. The 'happily ever after ending' kinda repulsed me more than marriage and the imprinting on infants. It seemed rushed and unconvincing- other writers of this genre have done a lot better. Overall not a bad saga- save for the crappy ending.
Meyer ends the Twilight Saga with an epic and absoluitely unmissable finale November 9, 2008

I cannot speak highly enough of this book, Breaking Dawn is without a doubt the best book in a fantastic series. Its written so well, the plot flows excellently and there are thrilling twists and turns that I haven't experienced with any other book I've read. In my opinion Stephenie Meyer is one of the best authors of all time, she never fails to deliver and I cannot wait for her next work.
This book is a MUST BUY
