Twilight

Twilight is at the moment one of the most known books in the world and that made its author Stephenie Meyer one of the richest authors in the world. But why is Twilight so famous and what is this book talking about? That’s what I’ll try to explain.

If you are a teenager, especially a girl, you have heard at least once about this book, or about the movie. It’s the story about a simple girl Bella that falls in love with Edward, who is a vampire. You will say that you already read Dracula. But now the originality of the story: Edward is a good vampire that wants most of all to preserve his lover’s life. And it seems that’s a pretty hard mission when werewolves and bad vampires are trying to kill her. But even now, that’s not a really interesting story. And in my point of view, the author is not a really good writer, so nothing special??? So why is everybody so excited about this novel?

The answer is simple: it’s a story that found its place in an unemployed place of the books’ market. You couldn’t find so many stories about nice vampires… now of course there are plenty of them. Like any other story with some success, it was copied in many forms. Unhappily, we are not talking about the copies. So, Twilight was an unknown market that Meyer found and exploited. And the movie helped: a beautiful Edward (it depends) and a wonderful Bella(...)

But I’m not here to discuss their tastes and they can do whatever they like, it’s none of my business, I am supposed to talk about the book. And for now I’ve been too subjective in my description. That’s why I’ll try to forget what I think about the book and present you a short description of each one (there are four!!!).

1. A new girl arrived in the rainy town of Forks, Bella, tries to adapt to her new school. But she falls in love with the most beautiful and wanted boy in the city: Edward. Unhappily for her, Edie is a vampire and he is also in love with her. And when some new vampires attack, Edward and his family do their best to protect Bella.

2. Bella is now happy with her boyfriend, when at her 18^th birthday; Edward’s brother tries to bite her. Edward decides that it’s dangerous for Bella to live near him and he brakes-up of her. She is really, really sad, but consoles herself by hanging out with some werewolves. Another bad vampire comes back and tries to kill her. I won’t tell you the end but she is finally back with Edward.

3. An entire army of vampires tries this time to kill Bella, and for beating them the nice vampires and the werewolves are doing peace. At the end Edie proposes Bella and she is very confused, but accepts.

4. Bella is pregnant with the vampire and she is two steps from death. The werewolves are also trying to kill her because they don’t know what the creature in her tummy can do. But after having the baby, a beautiful little girl called Renesmee (Nessie for friends), everyone is convinced that she can do no wrong. Unhappily, that’s not what the kings of vampires think. Bella, now a vampire, makes them realize that her daughter is perfectly harmless.

That’s all for the story, if you want to know more please read the books. You can also comment my point of view, I would be really happy to know others' opinion.
