Brief Summary:
Isabella "Bella" Swan moves from sunny
Phoenix, Arizona to rainy Forks, Washington to
live with her father, Charlie. She chooses to do
this so that her mother, Renée, can travel with
her new husband, Phil Dwyer, who is a minor
league baseball player. Bella attracts much
attention at her new school and is quickly
befriended by several students. Much to her
dismay, several boys in the school compete for
shy Bella's attention.
When Bella sits next to Edward Cullen in class
on her first day of school, Edward seems utterly
repulsed by her. After tricking a family friend,
Jacob Black, into telling her local tribal legends,
Bella concludes that Edward and his family are
vampires who drink the blood of animals, not
humans. Edward reveals that he initially
avoided Bella because the scent of her blood
was so desirable to him. Over time, Edward and
Bella fall in love.
Their relationship is thrown into chaos when
another vampire coven sweeps into Forks and
James, a tracker vampire, decides that he wants
to hunt Bella for sport. The Cullens plan to
distract the tracker by splitting up Bella and
Edward, and Bella is sent to hide in a hotel in
Phoenix. Bella then gets a phone call from
James in which he says that he has her mother,
and that Bella must give herself up to save her.
She does so and James attacks her, but Edward,
along with the rest of the Cullen family, rescues
Bella before James can kill her. Once they
realize that James has bitten Bella's hand,
Edward sucks the venom out of her system
before it can spread and change her into a
vampire. Upon returning to Forks, Bella and
Edward attend their prom and Bella expresses
her desire to become a vampire, which Edward
refuses to let happen

Character and their

roles
 Edward: Vampire; He has bronze colored
hair, golden eyes, and pale skin (like all
vampires). He has the ability to read
everyone's mind, except Bella's. He is also
much faster than other vampires. He was
born as a human in 1901 in Chicago, but
was changed into a vampire by Carlisle in
1918 when he was dying of the Spanish
 Influenza. He is in love with Bella Swan. He
is a "vegetarian" vampire and is also a very
good pianist. In New Moon, he leaves
because he thinks Bella will be safer
without him. He hears from Rosalie that
Bella killed herself by jumping off of a cliff
(she was actually doing it for fun) so he
leaves to go provoke the royal vampires in
Italy so he would be executed. Bella ends
up going to Italy to try to save him, and she
miraculously is able to find him before he
exposes the vampire secret to the public.
 Bella: Human; She has big brown eyes and
brown hair. She is very clumsy and blushes
easily. She is the one exception to Edward's
mind-reading gift. She is in love with
Edward and she lives with her father in
Forks, Washington. Her blood is extremely
appealing to Edward and very hard to
resist, often putting her life on the line
 Jacob: Werewolf; Jacob lives in La Push,
Washington. He is a member of the
Quileute tribe and is very tall and muscular.
He likes to work on cars and motorcycles
for fun. He always runs a naturally high
temperature because he is a werewolf, so
he is often jokingly described as a space
heater. Bella becomes best friends with
Jacob when Edward leaves in New Moon,
and over time their friendship becomes
 even more. This is a big problem after
Edward comes back.

 Alice: Vampire; She has the ability to see

the future except when werewolves are
involved. For some reason, they cause her
visions to dissapear once they come into
the picture. She is short and pale with black
spiky hair. She is Jasper's mate and would
do anything to protect him. She is also a
"vegetarian" vampire. Alice was changed
into a vampire by an unknown vampire (but
forced on by James). She used her future to
find Jasper and Carlisle's coven.
 Jasper: Vampire; Jasper has blonde hair
and golden eyes. He is Alice's mate and he,
too, would do anything to protect her. He
was changed into a vampire by Maria, a
lady who was trying to form a newborn
army in the south. He is very skilled in
combat as he used to help train the
newborn vampires. He has the ability to feel
other's emotions and change their emotions
as well. He has many crecent-shaped scars
 because from working with the newborns.
He is also a "vegetarian" vampire. He was
hiding from the rain in a cafe when he first
met Alice. Alice had known he would be
there and he was suprised to find out that
she was waiting for him.
 Carlisle: Vampire; He has blonde hair and
is described as being the most gorgeous
doctor around. He has golden eyes, too.
Carlise is very compassionate. He is
amazingly a doctor and is able to somehow
resist the temptation of blood when
operating on his patients. He knew a little
of vampires shortly before he became one,
and he did not want to be a monster like
the others. He started his "vegetarian"
lifestyle and does not feed on human blood.
Instead he feeds on animal blood. He
changed Edward, Rosalie, Esme, and
Emmett into vampires. He is now Esme's
mate and the father figure of the family.

 Esme: Vampire; after loosing her only son,

she threw herself off of a cliff. She was
somehow still alive when Carlisle found her.
He changed her into a vampire, and now
 she acts as the mother of their family and
the wife of Carlisle. She has browm hair and
golden eyes as a result of being a
"vegetarian" vampire. She is very kind and
loving.
 Emmett: Vampire; He was attacked by a
bear when he was found alive by Rosalie.
She ran him back to Carlisle, who changed
him into a vampire. He doesn't really have
any abilities, other than his strength. He
has brown hair and golden eyes (from being
a "vegetarian" vampire). He is Rosalie's
mate.
 Rosalie: Vampire; She has blonde hair,
golden eyes (because she is a "vegetarian"
vampire), ad she is Emmett's mate. Rosalie
is described as being the most beautiful
thing in the world, and she knows it. She
was considered very beautiful as a human
and she got everything that she wanted.
This is the reason for her being so self
centered. She was attacked by her fiance
and was found by Carlisle bleeding on a
cold, dark alley, so Carlisle took her back
and changed her into a vampire. She has a
strong dislike of Edward because Edward
didn't take to her like all of the
 other boys had done when she was human.
 Charlie: Human; Police Chief of Forks,
Washington and the father of Bella Swan.
He is a very bad cook and he loves to go
 fishing. He is good friends with Billy Black,
Jacob's father.


 Renee: Human; She is Bella's mother. She

married Charlie and together they had
Bella, but they later got a divorce. She
remarried an athlete named Phil, who she
was crazy about. Phil needed to travel with
his job. Renee wanted to travel with Phil,
but she also didn't want to leave Bella or
cause her to move around with them. This
dillema was causing her to be unhappy, and
Bella realizing this moved out voluntarily to
live with Charlie in Forks.

 Setting


 The story is set primarily in the town of

Forks, Washington, where Bella and her
father, Charlie Swan, live. Other cities in
Washington briefly appear in the series or
are mentioned, such as Port Angeles,
Olympia, Seattle and La Push. Some events
in Twilight take place in Phoenix, Arizona,
 where Bella was raised. Volterra, Italy, is
featured in New Moon, when Edward travels
there to commit suicide and Bella rushes to
save him. Jacksonville, Florida is mentioned
first in Twilight and second in


 Eclipse, when Edward and Bella visit her

mother, who has moved there with her
husband. Seattle, Washington, is featured in
Breaking Dawn when Jacob tries to escape
his love for Bella, and when Bella tries to
locate a man named J. Jenks. A fictional
"Isle Esme" off the coast of Brazil is
mentioned in Breaking Dawn, where Bella
and Edward spend their honeymoon.

Story
 The Twilight Fandom is a rather large and
extensive network of people who devote
any amount of time to the works of
Stephenie Meyer which involve Bella Swan,
the Cullens, or otherwise associated
 characters. The Twilight series is a set of
four novels (as of the release of "Breaking
Dawn" on August 2, 2008) about an
exceptionally clumsy and plain girl named
 Bella Swan and the exceptionally beautiful
and perfect vampire with whom she's
obsessively in love. Bella transfers to a new
high school where she meets Edward
Cullen, who's around a hundred years old,
and their
 relationship blossoms. Other characters
include Bella's father Charlie, Edward's
family, and the local pack of Native
Americans/werewolves (which includes
Jacob Black, Bella's later love interest).
 There is a sometimes intense feud going on
between Edward Cullen fans and Jacob
Black fans. Although there are a bigger
number of Edward fans(citation needed), it
seems that Jacob fans are much more
supportive of their fictional werewolf. They
feel compassion, and understand Jacob's
determination. Some fans seem to believe
that it's necessary to pick one particular
male character and be on "their side"; some
believe the reader should be like Bella and
pick both (sometimes referred to as being
like Switzerland), and some (the minority)
think Bella should just go on to college.
 There are many theories floating around that
Bella might be something other than human.
Many are fervent that she is pure human.
Others have suggested that she is part
vampire, while others are convinced that she
can't be any part vampire. Some even
suggest that she is a different type of
mythological creature altogether.

Climaxs
Climax is the point of greatest tension in a work
of literature and the turning point in the action.
In a plot line, the climax occurs after the rising
action and before the falling action.

So, with this definition we can plot out what the

climax of Twilight is.
The rising action, in my opinion, is after Bella
and the Cullen's meet James, Victoria and
Laurent. When they discover that James is a
tracker and has his sights on Bella, running
away to Phoenix to hide her and waiting it out
in the hotel.
The climax is at the dance studio while James
taunts Bella, breaking her leg and biting her. As
well as his death by Emmet and Jasper.
The falling action would be Bella in the hospital
and so forth.
