Post 7

This week I read Twilight, by Stefanie Meyers.  It was the best book ever!!!! I read it sooo fast because I could not put it down!  In the book, Bella, the protagonist, is moving from Arizona to Forks, Washington, the rainiest place in the world according to her.  Her dad lives there and he takes good care of her, but the book really gets good when Bella meets Edward Cullen.  Edward is a vampire, though Bella doesn't know it at the beginning of the book.  She finds out later, after he saves her life twice.  None of the Cullens drink human blood or harm humans.  This is so intense because they fall in love.  But Edward won't suck Bella's blood, even though he REALLY wants to, because he loves her.  Bella meets his family and start spending more and more time with the Cullens.  Then some vampires who do kill humans and suck their blood so when Bella is there when they arrive, they immediately try to attack.  They do not succeed because the whole Cullen family is determined to keep Bella safe, especially Edward.  But, the visitors are not discouraged because the have a "tracker" in their clan.  Therefore, Bella cannot go anywhere without protection.  Finally, Edward decides it would be best to send Bella back to Arizona until things cool down.  This does not work because the tracker follows them there and "kidnaps Bella's mom". But he really didn't.  He just tricked Bella into thinking that so she would try to go and save her mom, alone.   Bella does go and it turns out her mom is safe and sound and not with the tracker.  The tracker attacksBella and almost kills her.  She is saved by Edward at the last second!! then they all live happily ever after... or at least until the next book!
