About three things I was absolutely positive.

First, Edward was a vampire.

Second, there was a part of him -
and I didn't know how dominant that part might be -
that thirsted for my blood.

And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him.

DEEPLY SEDUCTIVE AND EXTRAORDINARILY SUSPENSFUL,
TWILIGHT IS A LOVE STORY WITH BITE.

A New York Times Editor's Choice
An Amazon "Best Book of the Decade... So Far"
A Teen People "Hot List" pick
A Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year

* "Propelled by suspense and romance in equal parts, [this story] will keep readers madly flipping the pages of Meyer's tantalizing debut."
- Publishers Weekly (starred review)

* "The novel's danger-factor skyrockets as the excitement of secret love and hushed affection morphs into a terrifying race to stay alive.... Twilight will have readers dying to sink their teeth into it."
- School Library Journal (starred review)

I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
