The fourth book of the Twilight Series by Stephenie Meyer is the best yet. In the first book of this series, Twilight, Bella falls in love with a vampire named Edward. Edward is very different as far as vampires go - he drinks animal blood instead of human blood. This story is forbidden love at its height because Edward could kill her at anytime because her blood is more desirable to him than anything else. He learns to master this impulse because he loves Bella so much. Over the course of the series Bella and Edward have several life threatening adventures. Along the way Bella gains a best friend Jacob who is a werewolf and a vampire's mortal enemy. He falls in love with Bella while Bella does not totally return the feelings. This love triangle has sparked "Team Edward" and "Team Jacob" debates on Internet fansites.
In Breaking Dawn Edward and Bella get married and the resulting plot twists are incredible. Fans have speculated what would happen in this book but Stephenie Meyer exceeded all expectations and then some. As with all the other books in this series the author continues to reference such classics like A Midsummer Night's Dream and The Merchant of Venice. Previous books dealt with themes from Romeo and Juliet, Pride and Prejudice, and Wuthering Heights.
I encourage you to start from the beginning with Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, and end with Breaking Dawn. You will love the author some have termed "the next J.K. Rowling."
