Mrs. Colan-Period 1

New Moon is about a girl named Bella who looses the love of her life who is a vampire. She doesn’t talk to anyone and almost every second is spent on thinking about Edward, her boyfriend. She finally finds comfort in Jacob, an old friend. She soon finds out that he’s a werewolf who hunts and kills vampires. Jacob and his wolf pack protect Bella from a vampire named Victoria who wants to kill Bella because Edward killed her mate, James. Even though this puts her in danger, she cares about Edwards’s life more then her own. One day, she finds out that Edward thinks she is dead. She knows that this means that he will kill himself too. She doesn’t have enough time to stop him. She doesn’t know what to do or who to go for help.

One aspect of this book that makes this book appealing is the fact that Bella doesn’t care about her life more than she cares about Edwards. Even though Victoriais after her and could kill her, Bella only cares about Edward killing himself. She tries to do anything just to keep him safe. She leaves her friends and everyone else she cares so she can go to Volterra and save Edward from making a terrible mistake. This makes the story more exiting because she has to thing to worry about. Suspense fills the whole story and makes the story very appealing.

Colan Period 2

The book Twilight by Stephanie Meyer is both about vampires and normal people. The main character is Isabella or Bella for short. She moves with her dad in Washington because her parents are divorced. When she first goes she just wants to go home but she meets a boy Edward Cullen and he has a secret. What is the secret he is a vampire. As the story goes on Isabella and Edward get closer and closer until they run into an encounter with another vampire and trust me he is not a good one. Isabella is captured and held to her will. Will Edward come to the rescue and save her or will he change his mind and not even think twice about her? Once again you will have to read and find out.

If I were to rate the book Twilight I would give it a 5-5 stars. There are twists all over the pages. It is a perfect read for anyone even if you like fiction, non fiction, fantasy, romance all of that is in this book and I hope that one of you can read it and see for your own eyes. You may of heard that this book is meant for girls but it is not, I will admit that there are some girly parts but the story goes on and you won’t care that kind of book that it is. This will be one of the bets books you have read I can guarantee that

Raven Madison is a gothic teenager, who has been obsessed with vampires ever since she was little, and always coveted a vampire kiss that would turn her into a vampire forever. When the Sterling family move into the old abandoned mansion on Benson Hill, people in town started to suspect that they are a family of vampires. Trevor Mitchell, Raven’s enemy, gets her caught up with all of the gossip, she decides to investigate and is determined to prove they are normal humans. When Raven meets Alexander Sterling, she falls in love, and asks him to attend the upcoming dance at her school. The night of the dance, when they arrive everyone is surprised. Trevor is ready to get his revenge on Raven by revealing to Alexander what Raven really wants from him.

I felt that this book was really funny and Raven makes you want to keep turning the page because of the bad things she can get herself into. I give this book 10 out of 10 for the good story line.
