Book 9: Twilight by Stephenie Meyer

Summary:
Bella, a high school student, moves from her mother's in Phoenix to live with her father in dreary Forks, Washington. There she tries to fit in and eventually falls for a vampire named Edward Cullen, who along with his "family" are posing as other students. The beginning of the book is all about Bella fitting in and learning the Cullens' secret. After they have become a couple, Bella learns more about Edward's history and his chosen lifestyle. During a family baseball game, another trio of vampires comes in and one of them takes it as a personal challenge to hunt and kill Bella. It is up to Edward and his family to make sure she is protected.

My Thoughts:
A pretty awesome book as anyone can tell by it's chart topping sales. Definitely aimed at teenage girls, but I enjoyed the vampire/werewolf aspect as well as the family loyalty that the Cullens show.

Trivia:
Soon to be a major motion picture!!!
This is the first in at least a 4 book series.
