There was also a great deal of hype surrounding this book, which can sometimes mean a really great book and other times can be a big letdown. Now that I have finally read Twilight, I have to say that it definitely lived up to the hype for me. I absolutely loved this tale of teen love between a human and a vampire.]]> 2023-03-01 11:37:35 UTC https://padlet.com/rkulkarni4/ulw9i6elfu2j6rer/wish/2499377829 rkulkarni4 https://padlet.com/rkulkarni4/ulw9i6elfu2j6rer/wish/2499381526 This book touched me in profound ways. Twilight was a book that I got deeply involved with. It was not a casual read that was easy to put down and move onto everyday life. It was a book that I carried around with me and tried to read every chance I could.]]> 2023-03-01 11:41:21 UTC https://padlet.com/rkulkarni4/ulw9i6elfu2j6rer/wish/2499381526 rkulkarni4 https://padlet.com/rkulkarni4/ulw9i6elfu2j6rer/wish/2499381826 The characters are moving and intense, their relationships with each other intimate and touching. I felt Edward's anguish that he can't let go of Bella, although he know he endangers her. I walked in Bella's shoes, feeling her fascination and intense love for Edward. Every touch, word, look between them was deep with emotion and that emotion went straight to my heart.]]> 2023-03-01 11:41:41 UTC https://padlet.com/rkulkarni4/ulw9i6elfu2j6rer/wish/2499381826 rkulkarni4 https://padlet.com/rkulkarni4/ulw9i6elfu2j6rer/wish/2499382511 Romance aside, the other elements also make this book involving. I was fascinated with Bella and what made her tick. Her interactions with her parents and her friends. Her outlook on life. Her courage at facing a horrible situation out of love for another person. Even everyday things in her life were interesting to me. I would love to know why she's so clumsy. I identified with her in that sense, because I'm pretty clumsy myself. The Cullens are intriguing and I can't wait to learn more about them. I am also looking forward to learning more about their mortal (or should I say immortal enemies) the werewolves. Jacob was cute and sweet and I'd like to see more of him, although I am definitely on Team Edward.]]> 2023-03-01 11:42:28 UTC https://padlet.com/rkulkarni4/ulw9i6elfu2j6rer/wish/2499382511 rkulkarni4 https://padlet.com/rkulkarni4/ulw9i6elfu2j6rer/wish/2499383526 The book that started a phenomenon and opened my eyes to the wonderful, vast world of romance. I just can't say enough about it. Just simply that it's a beautiful and sweet against all odds love story. I love Edward and Bella's awkward, tentative, honest, sweet, and bold relationship. Meyer truly captured the innocence and excitement of young, first love and made the reader feel right alongside Bella. The book that made so many of us want our very own Edward! I just love it and love the entire Twilight Saga!]]> 2023-03-01 11:43:37 UTC https://padlet.com/rkulkarni4/ulw9i6elfu2j6rer/wish/2499383526 rkulkarni4 https://padlet.com/rkulkarni4/ulw9i6elfu2j6rer/wish/2499383909 2023-03-01 11:44:00 UTC https://padlet.com/rkulkarni4/ulw9i6elfu2j6rer/wish/2499383909 rkulkarni4 https://padlet.com/rkulkarni4/ulw9i6elfu2j6rer/wish/2508440075 2023-03-08 11:18:14 UTC https://padlet.com/rkulkarni4/ulw9i6elfu2j6rer/wish/2508440075
