Colan, Period #1

“There was a part of him and I didn’t know how dominant that part might be that thristed for my blood.” Bella Swan, the main character in Twilight starts off as a happy girl in Phoenix, that lives with her mother and goes to high school. When she visits her dad in Forks, Washington, a small run down town where everybody knows everybody, her life seems to drastically change. Shortly, Bella notices the Cullen’s, an unusual family living in Forks. She first notices them at lunch as they sat away from everyone else, purposely isolating themselves. On Bella’s first day of school she realizes that she has a Bio with Edward Cullen and instantly, figures out that hes not quite like everybody else, in fact not human at all. Over time, they grew close, and built a very trust filled relationship, he then confesses his deepest secret, the fact that he is a vampire. Putting aside the fact, that it is extremely dangerous for Bella to be around their type, their love forces them to take that risk. When Bella is exposed to one of the most dangerous situations in her life, is it possible for Edward to save her this time, especially when it matters the most.

By far, the most amazing aspect of the book, is based on Bella and Edward’s true love. They go through may obsticles, different that what anyone else has to go through, just to make sure they love is safe. Bella puts herself at risk and does anything she can to make sure her and Edward’s love can remain constant. Their love for eachother, and fights they concer make this book unbelieveably appealing and romantic. This aspect is so important because it draws people in, and appeals to anybody. It shows that no matter how difficlut, or how impossibe things may seem, if you want something to work, it takes a huge amount of determination. Without the love story between Edward and Bella, this book would be nothing.
