The Twilight Companion: The Unauthorized Guide to the Series by Lois H. Gresh


The unauthorized guide is a bit of a disappointment. Gresh gives a rundown on "typical" vampires and werewolves, which is interesting but doesn't have a whole lot to do with Twilight itself. I would say that the majority of the book is about "other" vamps and ware's.

She also makes mistakes in terms of what actually happened in the twilight series. Her inaccuracies get tiresome and frustrating.

The guide is also full of quizzes that are a waste of time, energy and effort.

I personally would not waste my money on this, wait for the offical guide.


Grade: D (because the info on other vamps and wares is a bit interesting)


Synopsis (B&N)
Everyone's in love with vampires, and if his name happens to be Edward Cullen, then readers of the wildly popular Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer can't help but be crazy about him. For all those who adore Bella Swan, Edward, and the rest of the Cullen family and can't get enough, this companion guide is a must-read and a terrific gift. The series follows an unlikely couple: Bella, a teenager, and her boyfriend Edward, a vampire that has sworn off human blood. But their love is ill-fated--being a vampire, Edward must keep his passion in check, lest he is driven to suck Bella's blood.
With legends, lore, and myths about everything from vampires to werewolves to immortality, a bio of the author, and a ton of insight into the four-book series, this companion guide will give millions of readers the information that they've been waiting for since book one.
