Twilight by Stephenie Meyer

TwilightbookBlurb: About three things I was absolutely positive.

First, Edward was a vampire.

Second, there was a part of him—and I didn’t know how dominant that part might be—that thirsted for my blood.

And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him.

Age: 13+ possibly 14+

I know these books have been reviewed to death, but there is no harm in one more review.

I wasn’t sure if I would like this book, but it was nowhere near as bad as I thought. This book is about a girl falling in love with a vampire and the problems that it causes. This is like any other love story but with the added gore. I could relate to Bella with her being clumsy, but not because I fall in love with vampires. I thought that the characters were good and that a vampire love story was an interesting idea. I did like this book and the way that it was written. However it was too cliché for my liking with the falling in love and then the Romeo and Juliet thing with we can’t be together but they do it anyway. I have heard that the other books are better so I will make an effort to read the rest of the series. Also, shout out to my friend (you know who you are) who is obsessed with these books and made me read it. I give this an 8 out of 10 stars and recommend it to teenage girls.

  2. Hello!

    Since you have a WordPress site about books, I have a download that you might be interested in, either for yourself or for your readers.

    I just finished creating my own WordPress plugin, called ‘WordPress Book List’. Basically, it allows someone to add a book to their ‘Book List’, and it automatically grabs information about the book from the internet, including:
    1. Publisher’s Description
    2. Cover Image
    3. Amazon Customer Reviews
    4. Author
    5. Category
    6. Publisher
    7. Publication Date
    8. Where to purchase the book (Amazon, Barnes&Noble, Google Books and iTunes links)
    9. GoodReads Widget (how many have read the title in total, how many of your own GoodReads friends have read the title, add the title to your bookshelf…)
    10. 6 Social media links to share the title
    11. Your own notes on the title

    You can also upload your entire GoodReads Library to your own site via my WordPress Book List plugin, and there are other backup and download options. The display is fully customizable, and you can create as many ‘libraries’ as you want.

    I’m hoping you’ll be interested in downloading my plugin, testing it out, and maybe sharing your feedback and suggestions with me and/or with your readers. It would help me to see what my plugin currently lacks, what people like/dislike about it, etc, and it can help you by having a new way to display tons of info on your site about the books you’ve reviewed or that you’re currently reading, or that you’d like to one day read… really whatever you can think of (maybe a ‘top 100 best books ever’, or ‘books I wish I have never read’). I’m hoping your readers will really like it as well.

    Also, ‘Amazon Prime Day’ is coming up in a few days, and as this plugin has links to purchase each individual book on Amazon, it might be something timely to tie my plugin in with and let your readers know about.

    You can check out a full-fledged demo of it on my personal site, at https://www.jakerevans.com/library/, and you can download it for free at the bottom of https://www.jakerevans.com/demo-library, where it says ‘Download your copy of WPBookList here!’

    This is my first major software development project, so I’m really, really anxious to get as many people using this as possible so I can get some feedback and whatnot.

    If you need help installing the plugin, here’s really all you should need to do:

    1. Download the plugin at the bottom of https://www.jakerevans.com/demo-library.
    2. Log into your WordPress site.
    3. Click on ‘Plugins’ on the left-hand side of the dashboard
    4. Then click ‘Add New’ towards the top of the page
    5. Then, click ‘Upload Plugin’
    6. Upload the plugin, click ‘Install Now’, and then click ‘Activate Plugin’

    To get started, all you need to do is paste this on one of your pages or posts: [wpbooklist_shortcode], (with the brackets).
    If you do install the plugin and something is just way off or not working right, just shoot me an E-mail and I can take a look (I’m a web developer/designer).

    Thanks a lot for your time, I really appreciate it!
