Product Description

To be irrevocably in love with a vampire is both a fantasy and nightmare. Pulled in one direction by her intense passion for Edward, and in another by her profound connection to werewolf Jacob Black, Bella has endured a tumultuous year of temptation, loss and strife. Now she is at the ultimate turning point: forced to choose either to join the dark but seductive world of immortals, or pursue a fully human life. Her decision has become the thread from which the fate of two tribes hangs. But just as the frayed strands of Bella's life seem ready to heal and knit together, are they about to be destroyed forever?

Review
'The sexiest vampire tale for years arrived in Stephenie Meyer's Twilight, about teenage Bella's chaste romance with a beautiful vampire boy. Their intensely erotic feelings are endangered by more predatory types. Guaranteed to suck in sulky 13+ girls for hours.' The Times "Will keep readers madly flipping the pages of Meyer's tantalizing debut." Publishers Weekly

I want more!!!
OKay, so I am 27 years old and was an original "I am not bothered about some tortured teenage romance story! I am a Grown Up!"....but once I read Twilight I was hooked. I have now read all 4 of the series and Breaking Dawn was the best. In Eclipse we left off with Bella & Edward arranging their Marriage (well, Alice was) and were looking forward to seeing them live Happily ever after....Forever. Simple....or so we thought. The book is split into 3 parts, first Bella's story, then Jacob's, then back to Bella. There is a huge reason for this and I don't want to spoil too much but anyone who has read Eclipse probably already has an idea about why this is the case. It's a great twist! I expected (there's a clue) the first part of the plot but the second hit me like a juggernaut!! It was sensational...and also made complete sense...why did I not see it before!!! I couldn't put this down! This book also reveals the extent of Bella's strength as a Human and more and how her and Edward were meant to be more than ever. To say I am nearly 30 years old has me slightly ashamed of how passionate I am about this "teenage" series but then I thought what the heck! It's an old fashioned love story with a new modern edge...a Romeo & Juliet with Vampires & Werewolves instead of Motagues & Capulets. For anyone who is still not sure about the whole series I urge you to continue until you have reached the end of the Twilight Journey....it's one you won't want to miss!

A more intense and grown up read
The final install from this gripping series is definitely more intense and adult than the first three books. In fact since reading the book and now knowing it's content I'm quite surprised that I was pointed in the direction of the children's section in Tesco's to find it. It's going to be very interesting to see how this is made in to a suitable film given some of the graphic scenes in it. Stephanie writes absolutely perfectly for a younger audience, she sets the scene and your imagination can do the rest and that's then perhaps limited to your age bracket at the time of reading.

I have read all four books in less than two weeks and have savoured every word. I have never been so hooked on a set of books before and miss Edward and Bella already knowing I won't be reading about them when I get in to bed at night.

In New Moon and Eclipse I really struggled to like Jacob and didn't understand Bella's feelings towards him at all. I was almost disappointed to see a whole section of this book dedicated o Jacob and considered skipping it altogether, but I'm glad I read on and I came to like Jacob very much.

Although I imagine that Stephanie will be bored of vampires by the time Breaking Dawn has finished in the cinema in a few years time, she has still left this open to return and I for one would love it... after all, Bella and Edward have forever!

What a load of...
I can't believe I worked my way through the first three books (which I enjoyed) for such a poor finale. Very sexist in parts, cheesey in others and a pretty naff ending if you ask me... I was expecting so much more!
