Guest Blogger-Bella and Edwards Twilight

Hi there again.
The excitement is growing over the release of the new Twilight series book Breaking Dawn. In case you have not heard, there will be many midnight release parties sponsored by book sellers across the country. To find one near you, simply click on the link below or read on.

Find a Midnight Release Party

FRIDAY, AUGUST 2nd there are bound to be hundreds of book parties celebrating the release of the final installment in the Twilight Series. Judging from the pre-orders sitting at number one on most major book lists, these parties should be well attended.

So far, worldwide sales for the series books top 8 million. Putting this into some kind of perspective, this huge number is less than the first weekend's take for the last Potter book.

Twilight tempted the imagination. New Moon made readers thirsty for more. Eclipse turned the saga into a worldwide phenomenon. And now, the book that everyone has been waiting for... Breaking Dawn, the final book in the #1 bestselling Twilight saga, will take your breath away.

Stephenie Meyer's sophisticated teen vampire novels have created the kind of response from teens and adults that we haven't seen since the debut of Harry Potter. Barnes & Noble will be celebrating the August 2 release of Breaking Dawn by hosting special events in stores.
The initial printing for "Twilight," was just 75,000, increasing to 100,000 for "New Moon," and 1 million for "Eclipse," which came out last summer.

All four of the"Twilight" are in the top 20 with most major book sellers.

To find a party near you, you can check out these sights or your local library.

The Twilight Series

Today I welcome Bess from Bella and Edward's Twilight blog.
She will be writing several posts as a guest post writer about the Stephanie Meyer Twilight book series.



Hello!
In case you have not heard, there is a new phenomenon in the world of reading.
It's all about the Twilight series of books.

There are four books in the series.
Eclipse, New Moon, Breaking Dawn and Twilight.
Three are on most best seller lists and the fourth is on the pre-order best seller lists. It will be released on August 2nd.

I know that there may be a few people who have not read the Twilight series books. If you are looking for a reason to try the books, here is a simple recommendation. The Twilight series makes for phenomenal reading.

The story goes like this.
Bella Swan has always been a little bit different.
Bella never fit in with the other girls at her Phoenix, Arizona high school. When her mother remarried and sent Bella to live with her father in the rainy little town of Forks, Washington, she didn't expect much of anything to change.

When Bella meets the mysterious Edward Cullen everything changes.
For Edward is nothing like any boy she's ever met. Edward isn't like the other boys. He can run faster than anything, he can stop a moving car with his bare hands and he hasn't aged since 1918.

Edward is a vampire.
He's immortal but, he doesn't have fangs and he doesn't drink human blood.

To Edward, Bella is a soul mate that he has waited 90 years for. Her scent can drive him crazy.

Laurent and James, Edward's mortal vampire enemies, come to town, looking for Bella.

Twilight is an addictive modern Romeo and Juliet story of the ultimate forbidden love affair - between vampire and mortal.

For more information about the series, you can visit my blog.
Shakespere has invited me back for a series of guest posts as well.

Thanks and happy reading!
Bess
