It all started with a dream about a girl who fell in love with a bloodthirsty vampire, and now 100 million sold books later, Stephenie Meyer has become a household name. Meyer's career began not too long ago (she didn't even originally want to have ''Twilight'' published), but now you can't even mention the word vampire without stirring up a Twilight frenzy. Her books have started a cult phenomenon of Twihards and led to a resurgence in the obsession we mere humans have with vampires.
Books to Sink Your Teeth Into
* '''Twilight''' another vampire becomes determined to kill Bella.
* '''New Moon''' - A new moon is the darkest phase of a lunar cycle, and thus this book chronicles the darkest time in Bella's life. After Edward's brother Jasper nearly kills Bella, Edward deems it best he and his family leave Forks. This book will resonate deeply with anyone who has experienced lost love. Bella finds comfort in her friend Jacob... and the pseudo love triangle begins.
* '''Eclipse''' - Loving vampires ''and'' wolves is never an easy task. Bella is torn between her love for Edward and her friendship with Jacob. While she tries to keep these two from killing each other, an army of newborn vampires is on the hunt for Bella and the Cullens.
* '''Breaking Dawn''' all good things must come to an end, and yes, there's blood!
* '''The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner''' - This novella follows the short life of newborn vampire Bree Tanner. In case you forgot who she is, Bree is an unfortunate teen created for the vampire army in ''Eclipse''. We follow the months leading up to her horrific second death. For us Twihards who just can't get enough, it'll quench our thirst until Meyer finally decides to finish ''
Midnight Sun'' (the story of Twilight from Edward's perspective).
* '''The Host''' - Enough about vampires, let's talk aliens. An alien race known as souls takes over Earth and the E.T.s implant themselves into human bodies. However, Melanie is one of the few humans who refuses to let her mind and body be take over by the invading Wanderer. Meyer says she'd like to turn this book into a trilogy.
I Need More Blood, Vamps, and Weres
Yes, I too know about the incessant thirst for more ''Twilight'', so it's a good thing this saga was able to cause such a crazed following.
* If you seek more reading material, there is a new series based on the first novel:
Twilight: The Graphic Novel was just recently published, and further volumes will follow.
