About this ebook

In the explosive finale to the epic romantic saga, Bella has one final choice to make. Should she stay mortal and strengthen her connection to the werewolves, or leave it all behind to become a vampire?
When you loved the one who was killing you, it left you no options. How could you run, how could you fight, when doing so would hurt that beloved one? If your life was all you had to give, how could you not give it? If it was someone you truly loved?
To be irrevocably in love with a vampire is both fantasy and nightmare woven into a dangerously heightened reality for Bella Swan. Pulled in one direction by her intense passion for Edward Cullen, and in another by her profound connection to werewolf Jacob Black, a tumultuous year of temptation, loss, and strife have led her to the ultimate turning point. Her imminent choice to either join the dark but seductive world of immortals or to pursue a fully human life has become the thread from which the fates of two tribes hangs.
This astonishing, breathlessly anticipated conclusion to the Twilight Saga illuminates the secrets and mysteries of this spellbinding romantic epic.
It's here! #1 bestselling author Stephenie Meyer makes a triumphant return to the world of Twilight with the highly anticipated companion, Midnight Sun: the iconic love story of Bella and Edward told from the vampire's point of view.
"People do not want to just read Meyer's books; they want to climb inside them and live there." -- Time
"A literary phenomenon." -- The New York Times

Ratings and reviews

I don't think Bella loves her unborn babygirl more than Edward, but I only say that because she's been ready to give her life for Edward more than once. I think Meyer is the most amazing love story author there is. I mean, who thinks of that many plots, twists, and turns? The way that Bella and Edward love each other throughout this entire series is what every little girl dreams of growing up and getting. And Bella being torn between her undeniable love for Edward and the strange love she feels for Jacob is so compelling.

I've read the books and have seen the movies only to realize that there is a rapid decline in both the cinematic and literary constructs in the United States. Once mysterious, powerful, and dangerous creatures of the night, vampires have been transformed into sparkling, overly emotional pretty boys. Like taking Shakespeare and altering his works into a Teenage High School Drama.

This is the best book of all. I must admit that. It really captured its readers. I loved this one. The end was calm. The Volturi even though a royal family are like the bad guys. They see about the vampire world making sure humans know nothing about vampires. Ok, that's acceptable but where the hell were they when the humans in Seattle were getting turned into vampires to fight. They are supposed to be able to control these situations. The Cullens had to end the new borns. They aren't doing their job properly if you ask me.
