5 out of 5 stars Silly rabbit, fangs not just for kids   November 22, 2008
I am new to the Twilight craze, had never heard of the books before I heard about the movie. I like to read books before I see the movie, so I ordered this book, trying to get my 13-year-old interested. I loved it! I already have the next two books and am planning on buying the 4th soon. Loved the characters, the way it is so easy to relate to Bella, the references to Phoenix, everything about the book. Parents, read these books. They are not just for kids.

This book is very interesting and it hooks you and grabs you and makes you want to read the next in the series. A very fun read and I am so glad I have 3 more to read. The only down side was in the beginning...I thought Bella was way too angry a teenager...but heck it has been so long since my girls were teenagers, maybe that is the way they are these days...

2 out of 5 stars Women who love men who stalk women   November 22, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I tried to like this book and its characters. But the dialog, descriptions and action made it impossible. Bella, the helpless heroine, was a responsible young woman until she started dating golden-boy vampire Edward. Maybe she was tired of pulling the weight that her mother should have. Maybe she was tired of being a teenager making adult decisions. Maybe she mistakes Edward's manipulation for love. All we know is that she's mesmerized by his good looks.

Edward looks like a 17-year-old god, but he's really a cranky hundred-year-old vampire enrolled in high school. He's attracted to Bella's scent (shampoo?) and the fact that he cannot read her mind--perhaps because Bella doesn't have independent thoughts around Edward. Whenever they are together, he makes every decision, including what Bella eats. He also follows her and breaks into her house to watch her sleep.

The banter, probably meant to be romantic and mysterious, is tedious and absurd."You're in danger with me. You shouldn't be with me. What are you thinking?" And so on.

What is Bella thinking, indeed. She is with a man who isn't sure whether he wants to kiss her or kill her. Yes, just a kiss: Edward is so strong that he is afraid he'll hurt her if they try to consummate their relationship. Not that the idea sounds appealing--Edward's hands, face, neck and presumably the rest of him are as hard and cold as marble in the moonlight. Though Bella is hot for him, she happily agrees to a platonic romance.

A similar variation on the theme of creepy men pursuing women is an episode of Sherlock Holmes called "The Solitary Cyclist." A man, Carruthers, starts following Violet, his employee, trying to protect her from his rough criminal friends instead of sending her out of harm's way. He calls it love; Watson calls it selfishness. In the end, Holmes has to stop Carruthers from killing her attacker, even though Carruthers knows he would hang for it. Edward faces no real danger or punishment for hunting down and killing Bella's (other) stalker. Edward is so physically strong and his coven so large that he never has to risk anything to protect Bella. Would he or his coven have faced execution for Bella?



1 out of 5 stars An Insult to Literature   November 22, 2008
 2 out of 4 found this review helpful

And that's really all I have to say. This book was a huge disappointment for all I heard about it, completely with dismal one dimensional characters and a loose plot and complete sexism. Belle is a complete moron and I figured if I read one more word about how 'perfect' Edward Cullen is, I was going to just set the book on fire.

A mockery of literature. I can't believe this got published and became popular when there are millions of better things that could've been in it's place that didn't absolutely suck.
