I had read an article once, which was about Twilight and how all the teens are addicted to it... The truth is, that Stephenie's books - the Twilight Saga and The Host- include everything a book should have...
Twilight is about lovng someone you shouldn't love... It's the ultimate, perfect, but at the same time forbidden love, the one you can't resist on falling in, though you shouldn't because it's bad or even dangerous for you... That's something a lot of teens can understand, as many of us are sometimes afraid of falling in love with someone, just because we're afraid that our friends won't like him/her, or just because he/she is not the totally "sensitive and decent young man" our parents would like us to date.
It's also about falling in love for he first time. It is written from Bella's POV, so anyone can understand all those feelings described during the story, something that makes the book even better. You can really relate to Bella (well, girls mostly, but boys should really read this book, it'll help you guys understand a lot about the female mind and way of thinking) as she gets through all those fases of falling in love, something we've all been through, or will be... It describes falling in love, or falling apart after breaking up with the person you truly love...
Or having a best friend that loves you more than anything, and you always have to hurt him because you love somebody else.
But then again, it's not all about love. There are other things that make this book special. There's the fact that there are vampires and werewolfs walking around. It's not the typical novel where the boy and the girl will get through the typical barriers and live their happily ever after. Bella's life is always in danger, because she has Edward, the most amazing vampire for a boyfriend, and every other vampire wants to drain her blood out... It's not the normal vampire book, but it's not the common love story either..!!
And there's of course my favorite part ; the ultimate love triangle. Jacob and Edward, the worst enemies and the total opossites, the fire and the ice, falling in love with the same girl, and it's on her if she'll stay with her warm and funny bist friend, Jake, or with the mysterious cold vampire, Edward...
But I agree with you; even if it is the best book, the most perfect story you've ever read, you should stick to reality... We should all live in the real world, and just leave Bella Edward and Jacob out of this...!!!
