Twilight by Stephanie Meyers
Headstrong, sun-loving, 17-year-old Bella declines her mom's invitation to move to Florida, and instead reluctantly opts to move to her dad's cabin in the dreary, rainy town of Forks, WA. She becomes intrigued with Edward Cullen, a distant, stylish, and disarmingly handsome senior, who is also a vampire. When he reveals that his specific clan hunts wildlife instead of humans, Bella deduces that she is safe from his blood-sucking instincts and therefore free to fall hopelessly in love with him. The feeling is mutual, and the resulting volatile romance smolders as they attempt to hide Edward's identity from her family and the rest of the school.
There is a lot of buzz about this intense vampire teen series in libraries and bookstores. So I finally decided to give book 1 a try. Meyers does a great job with the dialog and creating the erotic tension between Bella & Edward. This book reads fast and leaves you feeling satisifed at the end, but open to sequels if any appear. Of course we know that there are 2 so far with book 4 coming out in August and the movie coming out later this year. So I'll check out book 2 soon. I'm a big fan of vampire books and found this book satisifing and am interested in seeing how she developes the series.
