 "If I could dream at all, it would be about you. And I'm not ashamed of it.” 
-Edward Cullen

Title:  Twilight
Series:  Twilight #1
Author:  Stephenie Meyer
YA Urban Fantasy 
Paperback, 498 pages
Published September 6th 2006 by Little, Brown and Company

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.

When Bella Swan moves to the gloomy town of Forks and meets Edward Cullen, her life takes a thrilling and terrifying turn. With his porcelain skin, golden eyes, mesmerizing voice, and supernatural gifts, Edward is both irresistible and impenetrable. Up until now, he has managed to keep his true identity hidden, but Bella is determined to uncover his dark secret.

What Bella doesn't realize is the closer she gets to him, the more she is putting herself and those around her at risk. And it might be too late to turn back...

My Thoughts
I found these on audio on my library's website, so I thought I would take a listen.  It's been a while since I've read this series.  These were the books that got me started on the whole paranormal kick way back when...back before they were even popular :)

    I love that there is a whole different perspective on Edward in the books than there is in the movies :)

One Less Warlock by Judith Post

One Less Warlock by Judith Post My rating: 4 of 5 stars I think it's hard in a short story to create a unique setting, characters, etc., and still get some sort of story line in. In One Less Warlock, Judith did an excellent job of molding the story in such a way that we got a taste of a distinct world and character personalities, and a complete story to go with it. In this short story Judith was able to pack in witches, vampires, a sexy Were, succubus, voodoo, murder, and mystery, all in only about 20 pages. Pretty amazing. I enjoyed the story and Babet, the main character, and am looking forward to more of her in the future. View all my reviews
