And So, The Lion Fell In Love With The Lamb.

Last weekend I finally decided to read Twilight, due to my curiosity about what all the commotion was about with this series of books by Stephanie Meyer.


The story begins when Bella leaves warm, sunny Arizona for gloomy, depressing Forks, Washington. At first she doesn’t think she'll like it until, she goes to lunch and finds a boy a few tables behind her, Edward Cullen. Edwards stunningly beautiful and yet, an outsider. At first Edward stays away from Bella, but eventually they create an unlikely friendship. Though Bella falls completely in love with Edward, she still can't figure out what makes him so odd to others. When Bella goes to the beach she hears the local legend of the "cold ones" Blood-drinkers that are not allowed on Indian land because they cannot be trusted. It doesn’t take her too long to put the pieces together. Though she knows Edward's a vampire she also know she still loves him. Even if he's not human


Twilight is a story about Bella and Edward romance. In amazement, Twilight does NOT follow the same stereotypical storyline as most Vampire stories. Movies and TV shows have all led us to believe that Vampires are supposed to be scary, heartless, cold-blooded creatures but Twilight shows such a new outlook on Vampire love.


The story is written in first person and told from the perspective of Bella. The readers only know what she knows which makes you even more eager to understand and read more about Edward and the Cullen Family. The character of Bella is by far more realistic and developed then I thought she'd be. Her clumsiness and shy personality truly make the book come alive.


The interesting part of this story is that the love between Bella and Edward isn't like many others. Their each other’s missing puzzle piece and they balance each other’s personalities flawlessly. They accept the fact that their falling in love and embrace it, even though they know this isn't how things are supposed to be.


All in all, Twilight was beyond amazing and had interesting storyline that always kept you on your toes. If you want a new view on a love story read Twilight.
