twilight four
The non-vegetarian vampire tricks Bella into going to her old dance studio where he video tapes her last moments. Then he slashes her face and breaks her leg. Carlisle saves Bella when he finds that James had bitten her hand. Bella ends up in the hospital where Edward promises never to leave her. This is one of my favorite books ever and would recommend it to anyone. Along with the sequels. the way Stephanie Myers explains Edward and Bella's love for each other is unbelievable.
twilight three
In chapter 13 Bella and Edward go to the meadow where Edward shows Bella what he looks like in the sunlight. His skin sparkles like diamonds. Bella and Edward both confess there love for each other and kiss fot the first time. It is crazy to think that two people could fall this mad in love so quick. But i think that to Bella, Edward is something something like a fairytale because he is somewhat magical.Edward shares with bella that he has been a vampire since 1918. Dangerous vampires pass through Forks and smell Bella. They want her. This part of the book is so suspenseful.

twilight two
Once starting the book it impossible to put down. As they fall in love and spend all their time to togeter they also find problems such as Jacob Black's wolf gang not liking Edward or the Cullen's and being very protective of Bella. Jacob Black tells her about Edward's family and their pack with the wolves to stay off their land. This love story progresses with Bella finding out more and more to Edward's lifestyle and family. Every aspect of this makes him more and more mysterious to the reader.
Twilight one
twilight starts with Bella moving to a new town and not knowing at all whats in store for her. On her first day school she sees the Cullen family and knows something is different about them, because i knew some back round on the book and have read the series i know that the Cullen family are vampires. Though most people do judge the book by its cover and declare it a freak vampire book the plot is actually very exciting and every page is more shocking as she spends more time around Edward and witnesses his crazy mood change from the first couple days to the third week when he is very nice and curious about her and even saves her life.
bronx 3
as the story develops I'm starting to find it more interesting and more like freedom writers. As the students read there poems you can hear how they are becoming more comfortable around each other and more comfprtable expressing their feelings. They are also all realizing that they are more alike then they thought. To hear the stories like Chankara's sister whose boyfriend beat her and Tyrone's pessimistic outlook because his father died and how he doesn't try on anything he does shows how different their lives are from mine because i never experience these situations or feelings.
bronx-2
As the story unfolds i became more aware of the theme's in this story through the students journal entries. These problems are obeseity, alcoholism, dylexia, and abuse. These are problems i am never faced with, therefore when i was reading about them i was shocked.
the bronx masquerade
When starting this book it reminded me a lot of the story freedom writers about teens California who live troubled lives and express there emotions through journal entries. Tyrone Bittings, a student in the Bronx Masquerade wrote a poem instead of an assigned essay. He read it a loud to his class and "open mic Friday" was born. This gives students a chance to read poems they wrote that express how hard their lives are in the bronxs.
