The Thoughts Of a Typical Mind

  A book by Stephenie Meyer   What's It About: " About three things I was absolutely positive. First, Edward was a vampire. Second, there was a part of him—and I didn't know how dominant that part might be—that thirsted for my blood. And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him." "In the first book of the Twilight Saga, internationally bestselling author Stephenie Meyer introduces Bella Swan and Edward Cullen, a pair of star-crossed lovers whose forbidden relationship ripens against the backdrop of small-town suspicion and a mysterious coven of vampires. This is a love story with bite.  " My Opinion: I loved the book! The author had thought about the characters, and described them so well, I could imagine them. Will I Recommend it: Yes. I will mostly recommend Young Teens/Adults. Ratings: 4 1/2  out of 5
