Twilight Saga
December 27, 2008Okay, let me guess what you’re thinking? Another twilightish blog? Again…? and again..? Can’t you you just get over it Liza…?
Alright, i just wanna let this out okay?
I’ve just finished the fourth and last book of this crazy vampire story - Breaking Dawn - which kinda make me feel sad as my mind drifted slowly back into reality as i’ve ended the book. I realized that it’s time to face all my worries again, like looking for a new apartment to stay in Makati and enrolling for the next term. Sigh..
Just a quick review on the series, sorry i’m quite a biased and my reviews on these boks are all pros; (***Spoiler Alert***)
Twilight
The first book shows how Bella and Edward met and fell passionately in love with each other. Stephenie introduced to her readers how perfect our Edward Cullen is. Here, we’ve met the Cullen family who I guess (in human point of view) have all they’ve ever wished for except that they aren’t human. Steph just gave the readers a little action here when James (the sexiest villain in town..hehe, agree?) stepped in the baseball scene to give Bella and the Cullens a hard time.
In this book, every girl (including moms) fell in love with Edward. Sorry Prince Charming, I’m afraid your time is over and you have to give way to the hottest vampire ever- Edward Cullen. Yeah, screw the prince on a white horse, we want a vampire with the shiny silver volvo! (forwarded text msg from regz)
As for the movie, ofcourse it must not be compared with the book because it can’t cover every details of it. Lucky Rob, because of Edward, he’s now the most eligible bachelor on earth for most of us girls 
.
New Moon
The saddest book in the series. I’ve cried during the part where Bella describes how painful it was when Edward left her. The words that Steph used were just right that reader could feel the antagonizing pain on Bella’s end. I felt the defiance Bella felt, to numb the thrusting pain in her chest. I even thought (hoped actually) that Edward was really there protecting Bella all the while but she just had her hallunications of him. Jacob plays a deal of a role here while Edward was nowhere beside Bella. Then, at the end, tears of joy when Edward finally was with Bella.
As for the villain part, Victoria was mentioned a few times, but it was Laurent who was physically there in the fighting scene. This book had left a scar on my heart as if i was Bella whom Edward had left (yah right, funny).
Eclipse
I don’t know but the third book left me not so memorable part of the series, maybe because i’m so excited on the last book that i’ve recently finished, just moments ago.
Oh yeah, Victoria appeared here in the third book and fought with Edward and Seth Clearwater. Victoria made herself a coven of newborns and brought them to fight with the Cullens, in vengeance of James. I only appreciated Jacob Black after reading this book. I saw how he loved Bella and i saw also how he was hurt when Bella chose Edward over him. The werewolves strory telling part though kinda bored me a little that i didn’t read very keenly the lines.
Breaking Dawn
The most exciting part of the series. Maybe because it’s full of action rather than the usual cheesy lines from Edward. One scene i love is when Bella was giving birth to Reneesme. It kept my heart pounding as what was going to happen next, then suddenly, Jacob gave up on her and thought that she was dead. Tears form my eyes flowed again. (the heck i know its funny). I love the cars also, Bella’s Mercedes Gurdian and her Ferrari, Edward’s Volvo and his Aston Martin Vanquish, Alice’s yellow Porsche, Rosalie’s BMW convertible, Emmett’s jeep, Carlisle’s mercedes, the motorbikes, even Charlie’s cruiser and the old chevy pick-up.
The second part i love is the scene with the Volturri’s. I pictured the “might be” movie and i think that men could really love this part. This is full of action and super-power stuff that might be of interests to them…And i super love the talent that Bella learned she has during her early vampire days, so cool…:)

my daughter is fan of the book series. she arleady read the 1st 3 and she’s asking me to buy breaking dawn. from what i’ve heard, that book might not be good for her because of the honeymoon details of edward and bella. it that true? btw, my daughter is only 10 years old.

Yeah, i’ve finished all those four, including the 5th one (Twilight in Edward’s point of view). I was literally obssesed, but now i already got over it. Good for me
May nabalitaan po ako ma’am na nagkakaproblema yung imported books dahil sa twilight series? Totoo po ba iyon?
In any case po ma’am paki-check na lang po yung video sa link ko sa youtube para makita kung bakit kailangan ng bansa natin maging mahirap, dami kasing kurakot na Pilipinong pulitikO!

I found the 4th book the most entertaining part of the series. I think it would depend on the perspective of your daughter, the bed scenes are not detailed in the book, yet the passions are strong, and these are the ones that could affect the readers’ feelings. I myself, experienced an obssesion during my ‘Twilght Fever period’. It had a certain effect on me that made me feel obssesed with everything about vampires…
