"And so the lion fell in love with the lamb ..."
More than a decade ago, we met Bella and Edward, and saw the story of a human teenager and vampire immortal fall in love through her eyes. Now, finally, Stephenie Meyer released the other side of the coin: the story told from Edward's point of view. Midnight Sun went through many ups and downs before it could arrive on our bookshelves, but now that it's here, of course it'll be divisive, because some people will love it, and some will say that it's just a rehash. But it's really not. Because we get to hear a whole lot more than just what happened in Twilight - we get to explore what it's like being Edward with his mind-reading ability. And we get to see the love story unfold again.
When Edward Cullen and Bella Swan met in Twilight, an iconic love story was born. But this unforgettable tale as told through Edward's eyes takes on a new and decidedly dark twist. Meeting Bella is both the most unnerving and intriguing event he has experienced in all his years as a vampire. As we learn more fascinating details about Edward's past and the complexity of his inner thoughts, we understand why this is the defining struggle of his life. How can he justify following his heart if it means leading Bella into danger?
