Today I am reviewing the story Twilight by Stephenie Meyer. Twilight is a well known story around the world and is very popular. The plot of the story is about Isabella Swan who moves in with her father in a rainy town of Washington. She meets the mysterious Edward Cullen who is secretly a vampire. As secrets are revealed, Edward & Bella find themselves in dangerous situations,

I chose to rate this book so low because it never caught my attention the right way. I found it hard to finish the book because the love triangle between wolf, vampire and human wasn't something I was interested in.

Blue Bloods : Melissa De La Cruz

This week I read the book blue bloods. I did not enjoy it as much as i thought i would because i am very into vampire stories. This story was to stereotypical because it is about richer kids talking about their lives and what they are going through, and most of the time the author just takes a whole page talking about the setting (location etc..).
 
I rate this story a 3/10
 
I would not recommend this story to anyone if you we're interested in twilight/vampire academy

It keeps you wanting more because it is so interesting and at the end of every story it ends with something exciting that makes you want to get the rest of the series right away!
 
I recommend this book for teenagers and any adults that have a love for vampires and romance!
