Twilight

"Softly he brushed my cheek, then held my face between his marble hands. 'Be very still,' he whispered, as if I wasn't already frozen. Slowly, never moving his eyes from mine, he leaned toward me. Then abruptly, but very gently, he rested his cold cheek against the hollow at the base of my throat."
As Shakespeare knew, love burns high when thwarted by obstacles. In Twilight, an exquisite fantasy by Stephenie Meyer, readers discover a pair of lovers who are supremely star-crossed. Bella adores beautiful Edward, and he returns her love. But Edward is having a hard time controlling the blood lust she arouses in him, because--he's a vampire. At any moment, the intensity of their passion could drive him to kill her, and he agonizes over the danger. But, Bella would rather be dead than part from Edward, so she risks her life to stay near him, and the novel burns with the erotic tension of their dangerous and necessarily chaste relationship.

Okay- so there's the synopsis for this book. I am highly recommending this book for all to read. It is FANTASTIC. Note- I am not a fan of vampire books... in fact I don't think I've ever even read one because they just don't interest me. In my opinion, this book is not a "vampire" book, if you will. It is a love story... it draws you and you want to keep reading (even when you should be sleeping because you have to get up early the next day). Stephenie Meyer is the author... there's also a sequel called New Moon. I will be starting it very soon and I can't wait. Check out Stephenie Meyer's website by clicking here.
