twilight summary

Twilight is based on Isabella Swan, a normal girl and Edward Cullen, a vampire. Bella lives in Phoenix Arizona with her mom and her mom’s boyfriend. She decides to move to a gloomy little town called Forks with her dad after making many excuses not to move there. If that's not bad enough, she has to adjust to the town and make new friends.
Making friends wasn't too hard though. Everyone was very friendly. In the cafeteria a boy caught her eye, she was curious about him, it was Edward Cullen. His description was amazing, his pale soft skin, with those beautiful eyes, tall slender body, with light brown hair and a hint of blonde. Bella questioned her friend about him, she said he was an outsider, don't bother with him, he thinks he's too good for any of the girls here.
Bella has a class with Edward, but it seems like he can't stand to be in the same room as her, but eventually they build a friendship after he saves her from nearly being smashed by a speeding van. Even as Bella falls hopelessly and irrevocably in love with Edward, she still can’t figure out what makes him so different from everyone else besides his perfection. On a trip to the beach with her new friends she sees an old friend, Billy. Where he tells her the local legend of the "cold ones". It's a group of blood drinkers who don't hunt humans but are not welcome on Indian Territory because they are not trusted.
She finds out Edward is a vampire, not changing her view of him, because she loves him even if he is not human. Edwards’s whole family is vampires. Edward has been a vampire since world war one, he is forever 17 years old. Edwards love for Bella is torment and delight. It's a delight because he is madly in love with her and torment because her blood is like his personal brand of heroine.
