I thought I might as well start a thread about my favorite book: Twilight. A lot of people have probably already read Twilight and New Moon and Eclipse (the sequels), but for those who haven't (hem hem, the only other person currently in this guild.....) Twilight is about a girl named Bella who moves to a small town and falls in love with a vampire. It's size might be intimidating, but it moves really fast and is definitely worth the read. They're making a movie out of it too, which in my opinion is going to be horrible, but of course I'm still going to see it the first night it comes out.

What.....just because I haven't read the book doesn't mean I don't know at least the minimal info about it. I mean I do have my connections you know! But is this book really worth reading?? I mean it is like 6 billion pages each book isn't it?

It is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO worth reading, are you crazy? The first one is only 498 pages long (off the top of my head) and I read it in less than twenty-four hours! All three books are amazing, and if you read the first book, you're pretty much instantly hooked. Probably because of heart Edward..... heart

Edward......that reminds me of a different character. The Ed from FMA and this one scene were some one says "Edward...". Yeah, but why would I get hooked on a series just because of some "Edward"? I didn't get hooked on FMA because of Edward. Oh and FMA stands for Full Metal Alchemist.

How can you say that? (Gasp!) You kind of have to read the books to get it, but Edward is like the perfect boyfriend. He's the most amazing character ever put into fictional existence. And he's a vampire........

Ok now you're making me shudder. Don't get me wrong, I'm not against having boyfriends or anything but this character doesn't sound all that great to me. Besides isn't Bella the main character?

Yeah, it's from her point of view, but Edward is just as major as her. Bella's kind of strange though, I don't know.

She's not crazy.... She's just a little.... I don't know....Flighty I guess. You have to read the third book. I don't really want to give any spoilers to people who haven't read all three books....

***SPOILER WARNING*** (Do not read unless you want to be spoiled)
Well okay. It's basically like a normal high school romance, except Bella's boyfriend (Edward) is a vampire and Bella's blood appeals to him more than most people's blood does. Once Bella finds out that Edward is a vampire she is catapulted into his world and is almost immediately pursued by vampires because, well, she is a human and she's hanging out with vampires, which is obviously really weird. Edward and his "family" (not biological) don't drink human blood, but instead drink that of animals. If I keep on going I will give away every single detail, but I will let you know it also involves werewolves. They actually look like enormous wolves...

***SPOILER WARNING*** (Do not read unless you want to be spoiled)
In the second and third, yes. One of the minor characters in the first book becomes a major character in the second and third books (his name is Jacob Black) and he's a werewolf. The only part in the first book that they come up is in a story that Jacob tells to Bella and in a dream that Bella has.
