Twilight
 |
|
Based on a best-selling teen romance, this is about a teenage girl who leaves her mom and stepfather to move in with her police-chief dad in a small town. She attends the local high school which has the usual selection of clichéd characters, and is soon attracted to a broody goth. He too is immensely attracted to her... or rather to her blood, since he's a vampire. And so the dance begins, as she tries to get him to satisfy her, and he tries to keep his distance to prevent ending up satisfying himself. Reviewers were generally not in the target market and suggest that familiarity with the book would help follow the storyline and numerous characters.
