New softcover book, movie tie-in edition released November 2008 to coincide with the release of Twilight the Movie. Measures 11 x 18cm, 532 pages.

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.


When Isabella Swan moves to the gloomy town of Forks, Washington State, and meets the mysterious, alluring Edward Cullen, her life takes a thrilling and terrifying turn. With his porcelain skin, golden eyes, mesmerizing voice, and supernatural gifts, Edward is both irresistible and impenetrable. Up until now, he has managed to keep his true identity hidden, but Bella is determined to uncover his dark secret.
What Bella doesn’t realize is the closer she gets to him, the more she is putting herself and those around her at risk. And, it might be too late to turn back. . . .
Deeply seductive and irresistable compelling, Twilight is an extraordinary love story that will stay with you long after you have turned the final page.

And then you'll want to read the rest of the series, I promise!

About the author

Stephenie Meyer is the author of the Twilight Series and The Host. Meyer was born in Connecticut, the second eldest of three sisters and three brothers, and grew up in Phoenix, Arizona. Meyer attended Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah, where she majored in English. She met her husband Pancho when she was growing up in Arizona and married him in 1994; together they have three sons: Gabe, Seth, and Eli. Meyer belongs to the The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Meyer says that the idea for Twilight came to her in a dream on June 2, 2003, the transcript of which is now Chapter 13 of the book. After writing and editing the novel, she signed a three-book deal with Little, Brown and Company. The sequel to Twilight, New Moon, had an unintentionally staggered release all over North America, beginning in early August 2006. The third book in the series, Eclipse, was released on August 7, 2007. The fourth book, Breaking Dawn, will be released on August 10, 2008. She has said on her website that there will be more than four books, though the narrator might change. Midnight Sun will be more of a companion piece to the series (if published) rather than a genuine sequel, as it describes "Twilight" from the view of Edward Cullen. A rough first chapter of Midnight Sun has been posted on her website, though she has stated that it will be edited and otherwise changed before being released as a novel.
