However, the previous summer the first 12 chapters of the book were leaked online, allegedly by someone close to Meyer. Originally, Midnight Sun was meant to be published in 2009. I have not watched the movies, so I’m not sure how they compare.Because this? This is everything. I would recommend starting with Twilight and reading Midnight Sun after reading the other books.

She’s a teenager, so it is a teenage love story, but the author does a great job of making the characters come alive.įans of the Twilight series will love getting this taste of Edward’s story. Edward is a vampire and he falls in love with a human. It reminded me of reading Four after finishing the Divergent series. While I wish there wasn’t so much time that had passed between reading the original series and Midnight Sun, I really enjoyed delving into the story again. It was fascinating to re-read a story from the point of view of a different character. I put it on my holds list as soon as I knew it was published and waited a few months before the book became available to check out as an e-book from my library. I read the Twilight series more than a decade ago and have had Midnight Sun on my to-read list for several years. But, when he tries to scare her off, he finds out she’s feeling the same pull towards him that he feels toward her. He has a strong desire to know what she’s thinking.

Maybe it’s also because she’s one of the few people that he can’t hear the thoughts of.

He plans to stay away, but there’s also something about her that pulls him back and wants to protect her. Edward is stricken when he first meets Bella because her smell entices him more than anything he’s ever encountered during his long life. Midnight Sun is the companion to the Twilight series, the first book is told through the eyes of Edward Cullen instead of Bella Swan. “A guardian vampire – that was a stretch.”
