This book is about the relationship between Bella Swan and Edward Cullen. It begins with Bella moving to Forks, Washington, and wishing she were still living in Phoenix instead. However, things change when she meets Edward, whom she falls in love with.
The only issue is that Edward is a vampire and is intensely attracted to the scent of her blood. This puts both Bella and Edward, along with his family of vampies, in danger. The plot plays out from there.
I think this concept is interesting, but the book was not engaging enough. It was usually too slow of a read. Also, Bella is a very irritating character. I am rarely annoyed by a character in a book, but she is just too much. Bella is overly dramatic and emotional. Her mood swings wildly and irrationally all the time. Plus, her relationship with Edward is presented as some great love, but they hardly know each other and she is only a teenager. Sheesh!

Me thinks this is not my kind of fiction.
Well, I got a free copy of the book, and it, of course, has been the rage, so I wanted experience the hubbub.
