Until recently I had never heard of this book or this series. Apparently the third and final in the series comes out soon (or just came out maybe). I read about it in Entertainment Weekly and thought it sounded interesting.

Anyone heard of these books? Do you like them?

Thanks!

Some Borders & WaldenBooks are going to have parties on August 1st, starting at 9:30pm for the midnight sale on August 2nd- Borders: Breaking Dawn Release Party for the 4th book, Breaking Dawn.

Twilight the movie is scheduled for November 21st, 2008 - StephenieMeyer.com | Twilight Series | Twilight | Twilight the Movie

Twilight is on the summer reading list at the local high school.

I have not personally read the books, my teenager has. She is the type to not finish a book if she doesn't like it.

If you like romance or vampires, you might like this series.

They seem to be getting some hype right now (I'm sure with the movie coming out) so I was curious about it. I liked the Anne Rice vampire books so I may give this one a shot!

Thanks,
Linz

Me and my friends have all read the series, and you always see kids at my school reading it. It's a great book, I own all three copies in the series. I would recomend buying it.

Thanks for the recommendatation.

I just finished reading "Twilight" . I loved it!! I'm now reading "New Moon" My daughter is 13 well 14 on the 26th of this month..but she has read all 4 books. So I had to read it to see what was all the talk about "Edward".. now I too am in love with "Edward"..Read it when you get a chance.it's wonderful!

DD12 got the first 3 books for Christmas last year and I was curious so I started reading the first one. I read all 3 within 2 weeks if that tells you anything!

Love, love, love it!!!

I'm about 1/2 way through the 4th and final book that just came out. I can't hardly put it down! (except to check in here once in a while!)

I am not a vampire fan by any means and cannot begin to tell you how much I dislike vampire movies but I am fascinated and in love with this Twilight series!

Now back to my reading...

My oldest daughter and all her friends read these books. She got the first three from me in hardcover for her birthday even though she'd read them and we ordered the 4th online as well.

I wound up buying 2 more copies of the 4th book the day they came out, she and her friends were having a read-a-thon at our house, they spent all day, her, her boyfriend and friends, reading aloud from the book. Two of her friends were grounded though and couldn't come at the last minute, I dropped off the second copy to them and they talked on the phone back and forth all day.

They only got through about 1/6th of the book reading aloud, even though they were at it until after 8 pm. Now our copies are making the rounds of all the friends so everyone can finish.

So, yeah, apparently they're hugely popular. I've heard, in detail, so much about Bella and Edward and Jacob and the plot and how different books turn out that I don't think I could get into the books, I can't stand knowing ahead of time how things are going to turn out.

I Own The Book And It's On My To Read List! I Have Heard Nothing But Good Reviews! Can't Wait To Read It!

OMG, I came here to post it.
I just bought the 1st one & finished it within 2 days.
I ran out & bought the 2nd one 15 minutes later.
Neddless to say I loved it !!

I can't for the movie to come out.

I have the first and second one reserved at my library. Can't wait for these to be available!

My DS loves these books. He wants to see the movie when it comes out!

I'm almost done w/ the 4th book !

One of my students was reading this book and I asked her about it. Apparently she can't get enough of it, as she finished it and then immediately started again at the beginning reading it for the 2nd time and she's 3/4 of the way through on the 2nd read. She also was talking about the movie. She sucks at math, but loves to read...Some of her description sounded a little gross to me, personally not into the bloody stuff LOL

Stephanie has reportedly scrubbed plans for the 5th installment, to have been from Edwards POV of the first book, due to copies of her rough manuscript being released. She's now put the first three, and possibly only three? chapters of the book on her website:
