I am late coming to this book and I was wondering what all the fuss was about until I read it! Being a Buffy the Vampire and Angel fan piqued my interest.
The book is great, accessibly written like the Harry Potter series it can appeal to all ages from teen to adult!
The first person narrative gives the reader a close relationship with Bella and we share her emotions and concerns as she wonders about Edward and his family. I couldn't help rooting for her and was genuinely moved when they got together, the writing is so vivid that you can feel the tension and hurt when Bella and Edward are separated. The danger seems palpable when Bella is in hiding and at the conclusion every bit of you is screaming out to Bella not to go to James alone! Still there are unresolved issues, compelling enough to ensure that I will read the rest of the book. Essentially a teen love story but much more complicated than that and a book that once you have started is hard to put down.
