About Stephenie Meyer

Never underestimate the power of your dreams...this is what author, Stephenie Meyer learned when she had a dream in June of 2003 about characters who had a quality of being real, and who she could not get out of her head. She was a busy mother of three young sons at the time, and had so many daily needs to be met. She began by writing down her thoughts when she could and started thinking about plots through swim lessons, potty-training, and late at night when the house was quiet. Within three months, she completed her first written piece...ever...Twilight! After submitting the manuscript to several publishers, it was chosen out of a pile of manuscripts, and was published by Little, Brown, where all readers fell in love with the multi-layered story of the young lovers.

Of course, the new book received many, many awards and the anticipation was feverish for the second in the Saga to be released. In September of 2006, New Moon was released to raving reviews and more than 25 weeks as #1on the New York Times bestseller list. Eclipse was released in 2007, and in 2008, the final book in the Twilight Saga , Breaking Dawn, was released at 12:01 midnight on August 2. All books of the series were adapted to full feature films, with record breaking grosses.

Stephenie lives in Arizona with her husband and three sons...probably hoping for another really good dream!

Goodreads review by SK on March 17, 2023

How do you read a book knowing the MC is destined to die? With pain. Lots of it. This novella is much darker than the rest of The Twilight Saga but it's so full of energy, plot, character and personality it makes it worth reading. To those who usually after reading Eclipse go straight to Break......more

Goodreads review by Dana on September 05, 2023

It would've been so cool if there was a shadowed hour-glass on every page, with the upper bulb being full on the first and then depleting as you near the end of the novel until it's empty on the last page. For once, the illustration on the cover coincides with the story. I still have no idea why the......more

"It all seemed so inevitable now." Seeing a 3.5 rating on this book makes me wonder if we all read the same book. Mostly because if this book stood alone with no other context, I would still give it five stars. Let me tell you why. Bree Tanner is one of my favorite side characters ever written. Even w......more

Goodreads review by Kat Kennedy on June 23, 2010

We went traveling through the upper end of North Queensland once as a family. We came to one of those strange, small-town, out-of-the-way places for a quick bird study tour with my scientist uncle. The place's claim to fame was that it also housed a giant mango. Yes. You heard me right. A giant, mas......more
