Book report of Twilight

I have read the book Twilight written by Stephenie Meyer, which is a fantasy and romantic book about a normal girl and a vampire falling in love.

The main character in Twilight is Isabella Marie Swan, just known as Bella Swan. Bella has lived most of her life with her mother in Phoenix in Arizona, hence her parents are divorced. Her mother, Renée Dwyer, gets married for the second time and Bella doesn’t feel like living with her mom anymore because she is the reason, that Renée and her new husband, Phil Dwyer don’t live together, so Bella decides to move to Forks in Washington where her father, Charlie Swan, lives. Forks is a really sold and rainy place – the things Bella hates the most about weather.  

Bella is a really pale person, even that she comes from sunny Arizona. She has long, chocolate colored hair, brown eyes and is slight of build. She is extraordinary clumsy and describes herself as being a danger magnet. She is very old for her age compared with the fact that she’s 17 years old. She is also way different than her mother, who isn’t reasonable for her own or other people’s life.

After Bella have moved to Forks, she experience how must her father miss her mother and it’s clearly that Charlie isn’t looking for a new cohabiting partner. Charlie is working as a police officer and he’s quiet like Bella and that’s why they actually are good at living together. 

When Bella starts in school she is much more popular, than what she was use to back in Phoenix. She makes quickly a lot of friends and a lot of boys want to be with her, but Bella doesn’t feel the same way until she meets Edward Cullen. Edward Cullen is a 108 years old vampire, who will stay 17 years old forever. He was dying, when Dr. Carlisle Cullen transformed him into a vampire. Edward has since that day lived with Dr. Carlisle Cullen and his wife Esme, who adopted him back then. Edward has four adopted siblings: Rosalie, Emmett, Alice and Jasper, who also are dating each other. Edward and his vampire family survive by drinking animal blood, instead of drinking human blood like other vampires and because of that they call themselves for vegetarian. But the first time Edward meets Bella, is her blood’s smell really appeal to him, which means that it’s really difficult for him not to kill her, but he is capable to resist and he falls madly in love with her instead of killing her.

Edward and Bella fall in love with each other, but this isn’t a love there is easy to handle, especially not when the evil vampire James turns up and the whole Cullen family has to protect Bella.  

This type of book is not my stile at all. I don’t like the whole concept about a story there can’t be true and I think that it’s horrible to read! Even though, I have to say that it’s well written and that I like the book’s structure and all the details, but I still don’t see the point of this book and for me it’s the worst book I have ever read.

Audrey Kathleen Hepburn



I have chosen Audrey Kathleen Hepburn as the person I admire. She was born May 4. 1929 and dead 20. January 1993. Today she is a very well-known person, who most of all is known from the photo you see on top of this text. One thing is that she was extremely beautiful (as you can see on the picture), but she was much more than that. I admire her for her strength and for being such a good and giving person. She was born in Belgium and grew up in the Nederland, where she experienced World War ll. She moved to London in 1948 where she was dancing ballet and working as a photographer's model at the same time. She became an actor later on in her life and today she is one of the world's most famous actresses of all time. The way she dressed was also a big inspiration and she was a big fashion icon. Later on in her life decided she to joined UNICEF. The experiences she got under the Second World War made her passion for humanitarian really big. She tried to help a lot of people and this was her biggest passion in life. I admire, that a person so beautiful and talent as Hepburn, still could see the important things in life and not only admire herself - that's the biggest talent Audrey Hepburn was given.
