The Twilight Series is to Young Women What the Harry Potter's Series was to Young Men: The First Book
Twilight is the first book of the series that piqued the curiosity of most young women. It also introduces the world of reading to many girls who would not make time time read a book. Through the pages of this book, Ms. Meyer worked her craft so well that girls and young women are turning the pages so much that they refuse to eat dinner and leave the house. They want to finish reading the book from cover to cover. They want to go on to the next book in the series.
Just this past weekend, I witnessed the power of these books when my daughter convinced me to buy it for her. In one sitting, she had already read more than 100 pages. Sitting next to us at the bookstore was another girl who was reading the new release of the series. She was so excited about the book that she started talking to us. Between Saturday and Sunday, my daughter had already read more than half of the book. The story is captivating and well-written.
