Okay, I absolutely inhaled this book and risked divorce by remaining in bed until 2:00 in the afternoon reading it. Seriously, I couldn't put it down. It is not about anything that would seem in the least bit entertaining -- it's about aliens that take over our world and basically snatch human bodies and put themselves inside, eradicating the human race one individual at a time. But in the end, it's just a love story. The thing that keeps me going with Stephenie's books are the unexpected. Since I never read vampire books, I had no idea where that story was going, and since Science Fiction has never been my thing, I had no idea where this one was going either. But I LOVED IT! I would highly recommend it (and I would also suggest going away by yourself and hiding for three days or so because else you'll just get yelled at for doing nothing else during that time!)

I loved this, too, but not as much as the Twilight series. I'm not usually an alien person, either, but I have been into that sort of thing lately!!
