My book review Twilight

By Stephenie Meyer 

 

Stephenie Meyer was born in Hartford Connecticut US she is an american author of Twilight saga. A series of vampire themed novels. Twilight the novel was the best selling vampire romance book. The book was published in 2005 and quickly became a pop culture phenomenon aimed at young adults, the book is a mix of love and danger. Through the story of Bella Swan, a teenage girl who falls in love with her mysterious Lab partner named Edward Cullen 

 

Summary 

 

The story is about Bella swan moving in with her dad to start over. She ends up going to a new high school and everyone wants to be her friend. But Bella is a shy girl with white pale skin and chocolate brown eyes Bella ends up being a bit awkward around people but her classmates don’t mind they seem to like her with the exception. But she thought Forks little town was gonna make a new start for her from recently moving out of her mums house in sunny Arizona to cloudy forks with her dad she entered her new class (history) she saw a free seat at an empty desk but then a boy walked in that she had been introduced to by one of her friends he had walked in with his family they were all also pale white . He sat down next to her. He had golden eyes and brown hair. He also had pale skin. When Edward Cullen sees Bella he starts acting very strange. Bella smells her hair to see if she smells but she smells fine Edward ends up leaving the room. Bella thought it was very weird for him to act like she knew he had some sort of secrets when she saw him in the cafeteria. He walked right past her table she was sitting at and her friend Jessica was talking about how he was gorgeous but he acts like he’s too good for everyone . 

About three things Bella Swan was right about  

First Edward was a vampire.

Second there was a part of him that didn’t know how desperate he was for Bella’s blood. 

Third of all Bella was uncontrollably in love with Edward.

“The throttling tale of vampire romance at a high school “ Sunday Herald 

Port Angeles 

“It had been awhile since i had a girls night out and the estrogen rush was invigorating “ Bella 

“ I loved Jacob much more than I should and yet still not near enough “bella 

I believe that it’s an amazing book and there were a few moments that I didn’t like but that’s like every book . I would definitely recommend it for young adults 

I found Twilight to be an engaging and fast paced read especially for fans who love reading about romance and supernatural fiction. The tension between Bella and Edward was well crafted and kept the pages turning. The gloomy atmospheric setting of forks also contributed to the novel’s moody tone which complemented the story’s emotional highs and lows.

However some aspects I felt like it started to go problematic. Bella depends on Edward too much and I feel like she’s always willing to risk everything for him. It raises concern about their portrayal of relationships especially for young readers . Her character often lacks agency and the dynamic between her and Edward can feel overly possessive rather than romantic.

I rate Twilight a 4.5 / 5 stars

Narrative Writing

The sky had never turned that coulor before . It was the day of Nans Tāngi . The uncles and cousins and  Pāpā’s were doing the haka . Today was the day we were lowering her into the ground everyone was crying . Nan was always the person we could talk to we could always just turn up to her house and she would make us a mean feed she would always take care of us ” imma miss you Nan ” all my cousins said as we were lowering her after she was lowered into the ground we all chucked flowers in and some of us dropped hand fulls of dirt in then we went back to the Whare kai for a feed . Hangis and lollies and soft drinks . That night as we were driving home i remembered that Nan once said when i die i would become a bird and i would come into your home and check up on you she also said that on the first night that you lower me i would turn the sky a purple and red coulor so you know im safe up there and after watching the sky for abit i gave up and turned around but as soon as i went to stand up the sky turned those beautiful coulors so i knew she was safe up there .
