Best/Worst Things About My Book
The best thing about my book is how Bella describes her thoughts and her feelings. I also like all of the describtions that the author makes, it really allows me to be there in the moment instead of just telling me. I love all of the drama in this book and the suspense. I don't really hate anything about this book. The only thing is that I feel like the beginning of the book is kind of slow. I watched the movie before reading this book and so I feel like it's hard to read a book when you already know what's going to happen. Another reason I don't like this book is because I saw the movie before, I can't imagine anyone else than Kristen Stewart acting for Bella Swan. I like this book way more than I dislike this book just because of all of the describtions and narrating.

The Start of Twilight: Why I Chose it and Predictions
I chose Twilight because my cousin and mom wanted me to read it. I saw the movies and loved them, but I never have read the books before so I thought I would make them be my independent novel(s). Like I said, I had already watched the movie so I know what happens, but I will share what my predictions were when watching the movie. I knew that Edward and Bella would fall in love and get married instead of going for Jacob. I thought that something bad would happen since there were other vampires in town and I thought they would kill either Bella or her dad or Jacob. I really want to know what Edward is thinking and feeling through this whole experience. Same with Jacob, how is he feeling about Bella dating a vampire? I would like know know who does Charlie, Bella's dad, favor, Edward or Jacob? Why does every boy like Bella when she wasn't liked at home? These are just some of my questions about the book.
The Start of Twilight: Setting and Stephanie Meyer
The setting of Twilight is set in Forks and it's almost raining everyday. Bella, the main character and narrator, always complains about the rain and how green everything is. "Thick fog was all I could see out my window in the morning, and I could feel the claustrophobia creeping up on me." (page 11). "It was the light. It was still the gray-green light of a cloudy day in the forest, but it was clearer somehow. I realized there was no fog veiling my window." page 53. Bella says that Forks is a small town covered in green woods. Forks is supposedly a cold place, even though it's winter and they just had their first snow. "The door opened again, and the cold wind suddenly gusted through the room, rustling the papers on the desk, swirling my hair around my face." page 27. Stephanie Meyer is the author of all of the Twilight Saga Trilogy including the making of Twilight Saga and books about Edward's thoughts during all of the events.
