Amazon.com Amazon Best of the Month, May 2008: Stephenie Meyer, creator of the phenomenal teen-vamp Twilight series, takes paranormal romance into alien territory in her first adult novel. Those wary of sci-fi or teen angst will be pleasantly surprised by this mature and imaginative thriller, propelled by equal parts action and emotion. A species of altruistic parasites has peacefully assumed control of the minds and bodies of most humans, but feisty Melanie Stryder won't surrender her mind to the alien soul called Wanderer. Overwhelmed by Melanie's memories of fellow resistor Jared, Wanderer yields to her body's longing and sets off into the desert to find him. Likely the first love triangle involving just two bodies, it's unabashedly romantic, and the characters (human and alien) genuinely endearing. Readers intrigued by this familiar-yet-alien world will gleefully note that the story's end leaves the door open for a sequel--or another series. --Mari Malcolm Product Description The... See less

Amazon.com "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. Meyer has achieved quite a feat by... See less

I really love Twilight and New Moon. Really love? More like I'm obsessed. I can read them, and immediately reread them. I eagerly looked forward to Eclipse. It delivered, and it didn't. Others have summarized the story, so I'll just tell my reaction to it. The Good: 1. Bella finally starts to think about the consequences if she turns into a vampire. She starts to worry about Charlie and Renee, and what she will be like once she turns. In the other two books, she gave very little thought to these things--not very mature, in my opinion. 2. Jacob and Edward both appear a great deal, unlike in the previous two where one of them would go missing for long periods of time. 3. We learn more about the werewolves, their history and their habits. Very interesting stuff. 4. Bella FINALLY gains a backbone and defies Edward in something. Even going so far as to trick him into getting her way. Before, she conceded to his wishes so easily, or he manipulated or guilted her into conceding. Not very... See less
