Twilight Essay

I liked this book because; it crosses fantasy with the real world. I chose this book because it is a popular book. The setting of the book is modern day high school in Forks, Washington.

A couple of the main characters in the book are Bella Swan, Edward Cullen, and Jacob Black . Bella Swan is a tomboy. She is a vegetarian, and is a little bit clumsy. She does not like people who talk too much. Edward Cullen is a charming dangerous man. He is an overprotective. Jacob Black is from the Quileute Tribe of Native Americans in La Push, Washington. He has long hair in a pony tail. His father is Billy Black. His mother is said to have died in a car accident. His tribal stories state the Quileutes are descendent from wolves. Jacob is a mechanical person.

The other characters in the book are Renee, Charlie Swan, Billy Black, Rosalie, Emmet Cullen, Alice Cullen, Jasper, Eric, Mike Newton, Jessica, and Angela. Renee is Bellas mother, and Charlie Swans ex wife. Charlie Swan is Bellas father. Billy Black is the chief of the Quileute Tribe, and he is friends with Charlie Swan. Rosalie is vampire, in the Cullen family. Emmet Cullen is a vampire in the Cullen family. Alice Cullen is a vampire in the Cullen family that can see in the future. Jasper is a vampire in the Cullen family. Eric is the first boy to greet Bella on her first day at Forks High school, and becomes one of her friends. Mike Newton is one of Bellas friends she meets her first day of school. Jessica is one Bellas friends she meets at school. Angela is Bellas best friend.

Bella just moved to Forks, from Phoenixes to stay with her father Charlie Swan. Bella hates it there, but makes friends easily. She notices a group of siblings sitting by themselves, the Cullens. Little does she know, they are vampires. Bella and Edward fall in love. Bella gets another vampire after her, named James. The Cullens show exactly what they will do to protect their family!

I liked all the action in the book. I didnt like the romance during the book. One of the strong points in the books was where Edward first save Bella from the van because he had to show her a part of him that he kept secret. Then I also thought that another strong part came at the end when Edward had to show control and save Bella from the bite from James. He showed that he loved her so much that he could control the one urge that he thought would be uncontrolable. The weak points are hard to find because the book was so well written. The one thing that I can think about is that it took a little too long to get to all the action!

The things that were in this book with Bella dating a Vampire can be used in our every day life, not with vampires of course. We can be friends with many different kinds of people. Race, height, weight, or wealth dont have to be a factor. That people who are on total opposite ends can be friends.

I would recommend this book to other readers. It has the action that keeps you interested if you are a boy and it has the mushy stuff for the girls. This book is for anyone!
