She is unaware that she’s about to step into a world of vampires in werewolves.Įven once she learns what they are, her desire for Edward can’t keep her out of that world. Twilight is the story of a girl who moves to a sleepy little town in Washington where she expects to be bored out of her mind. So it’s safe to say I’ll never read or watch these books. My lack of interest in the series falls somewhere between being just beyond the target age and because I detest vampires.

But before we start our real review of this, please note that this is more “novel” than “graphic” and because of that, it may actually take more than a day to complete. *Pshhh* what are these reviewers thinking?

The dialogues are built with the character's eyes, the plot with their most hidden thoughts, and the inevitable end without escape. ![]() Without words, the story goes on entirely in the mind of the characters, in which we find ourselves trapped, victims of their same horrors. The author uses his signature black and white scratched style, creating an unsettling atmosphere where light is defined with its negative, as a temporary absence of darkness.
