This book was pretty cool, it offered some unknown insights into the series. I got my copy for only $10 which was awesome, and I'm not sure I would have wanted to pay full price for this; but nonetheless, this is a must have for twilight fans!

Tenho esse livro há anos, mas nunca tinha parado para ler inteiro. Antes, tinha lido apenas as partes das personagens que me interessavam. Nesse fim de ano, resolvi arrumar meus livros e acabei sentindo vontade de ler de novo, dessa vez do jeito certo. Foi muito interessante saber mais da história de cada personagem. Pra mim não importa o que digam de Twilight, sempre vou ter um carinho especial por essa série.

Boring honestly. The book is written in interview style, which would have been fine initially for foreword or something but made the book feel disjointed and unenjoyable

Really not worth the money. The best part of this book is that it smelled like a new text book, which is totally one of my favorite smells. The interview was nice, as Shannon Hale is one of my favorite authors. Otherwise, it was a lot of the same information that was in the books, not much new. But the illustrations were either too juevenile or too anime for my tastes, for sure. And why summarize the key plot points of the novels...the only people buying this book have all read the novels (likely multiple times).

I actually tend to think this one if more interesting that the series, I loved all the background information on the non-Cullens (and my favourite Cullens).

It was fun to read and see the background of the characters and where they came from. It honestly is was boring and in the end I ended up skipping quite a bit of pages

This is a must read for all Twilight fans. What we have here is a great behind the scenes look at the Twilight Books and World. I think it should have been called the Twilight Encyclopaedia though. The Character and Vehicle summaries reminded me of encyclopaedia entries. The way those sections were done was informative but quite repetitive (especially the Character Profiles!). It would have been amazing to have illustrations of them all. In fact I think considering the title, illustrations were somewhat lacking. The Fan & International Cover Art sections were totally amazing! This book did answer quite a few questions I came up with whilst reading the books. I was left with one question about this actual book - did Stephenie Meyer write/compile it? Weirdly I felt she was lacking from this. Over all this book has a great range of diverse content. I read it hot on the heels of the actual Twilight Books and consequently found it was a bit too much sameness (with all the quotes and plot summaries).
