Not just for the teens! I read this book in a weekend, and was pleased with the vivid writing the author used to describe characters and scenery. I didn't read Twilight, but watched the movie on Friday night. After watching the movie, I had to start into the 2nd book to take me further into the story. Our 15 year old kept telling me I would love the series if I would just try it. She has chastised me for not reading Twilight though, as she has said the book gives much more information and detail than the movie. She felt the movie barely touched on some items, and was extremely simplified. I was able to read the 2nd book though and understand the plots after just watching the Twilight movie. Eventually, once I have finished the last 2 in the series, I will read Twilight.

All in all, this is a touching love story about honor, loyalty, friendship, and acceptance.
