Product Description
"Shoot," I muttered when the paper sliced my finger; I pulled it out to examine the damage. A single drop of blood oozed from the tiny cut. It all happened very quickly then. Edward threw himself at me, flinging me back across the table... I tumbled down to the floor by the piano, with my arms thrown out instinctively to catch my fall, into the jagged shards of glass. I felt the searing, stinging pain that ran from my wrist to the crease inside my elbow. Dazed and disoriented, I looked up from the bright red blood pulsing out of my arm-into the fevered eyes of the six suddenly ravenous vampires. Legions of readers entranced by Twilight are hungry for more and they won't be disappointed. In New Moon, Stephenie Meyer delivers another irresistible combination of romance and suspense with a supernatural twist. The "star-crossed" lovers theme continues as Bella and Edward find themselves facing new obstacles, including a devastating separation, the mysterious appearance of dangerous wolves roaming the forest in Forks, a terrifying threat of revenge from a female vampire and a deliciously sinister encounter with Italy's reigning royal family of vampires, the Volturi. Passionate, riveting, and full of surprising twists and turns, this vampire love saga is well on its way to literary immortality.

 Why can't people just enjoy a good book? ( lbw973 )
Personally, I tried very hard to resist the Twilight series. I generally don't go for Young Adult Lit., and I generally don't go for fads. But, I gave in. And I am not ashamed to say, I loved it! I love all the books. What I don't get is why people cannot just take these books for what they are...stories. I highly doubt Stephanie Meyer was aiming at the Pulitzer Prize when writing this series. So, why does every pretentious wanna be book critic on here have to rip them apart for not being literary masterpieces? Why can't people just enjoy a good book because it is that...a good book? Maybe there are some crazies out there who feel like they can never fall in love with a real man now that they have met Edward Cullen. But so what? There are always going to be people who think fictional lives are better than their own lives. That doesn't take away from what these books are. GOOD STORIES; a good escape from the everyday boredom of life. Isn't that what books are supposed to be? If the only reason you read a book is because you are waiting to rip it apart, you should just quit reading. Reading is entertainment, and these books are highly entertaining. I think Meyer's should get her props and everyone should just shut up about the supposed lack of literary merit.

Fantastic!! ( tinafnp )
The sequel to Twilight did not disappoint. When I read Host, I loved the book and couldn't wait to read more from this talented author. I purchased the four Twilight Saga books.
I've enjoyed them all. This author writes from a first person prespective and you come to love the characters, especially the teenage heroine who shares the self-consciousness of her co-horts and her weaknesses and foibles (she is the definition of clutz). Through each successive book you see her mature and develop into a wonderful adult heroine.
This series is alive with monsters, many of whom I came to love.
I can't wait to see what Stephanie Meyer has in store for us next.

Still Loving the Saga ( larkow )
The first book of the series, "Twilight", got me hooked immediately. The second book, "New Moon", has kept me hooked, and now I can't wait to read the third! This series has been a refreshing departure from the norm.
