Nightlight: A Parody by The Harvard Lampoon


Nightlite has many, many hilarious moments, that will make you laugh aloud.

You must be familiar the entire, Twilight Series and Host by Stephenie Meyer to appreciate the humor behind this parody.

Harvard Lampoon does a fantastic job at making fun of the characters and entertaining you.

With that said, there is something a bit off . Don't expect it to be much like, Twilight because it is far from it,

Check it our or borrow it. It is a slim book and not entirely worth the price.


Grade: B


Synopsis [From the Publisher]

About three things I was absolutely certain. First, Edwart was most likely my soul mate, maybe. Second, there was a vampire part of him–which I assumed was wildly out of his control–that wanted me dead. And third, I unconditionally, irrevocably, impenetrably, heterogeneously, gynecologically, and disreputably wished he had kissed me.

And thus Belle Goose falls in love with the mysterious and sparkly Edwart Mullen in the Harvard Lampoon’s hilarious send-up of Twilight.

Pale and klutzy, Belle arrives in Switchblade, Oregon looking for adventure, or at least an undead classmate. She soon discovers Edwart, a super-hot computer nerd with zero interest in girls. After witnessing a number of strange events–Edwart leaves his tater tots untouched at lunch! Edwart saves her from a flying snowball!–Belle has a dramatic revelation: Edwart is a vampire. But how can she convince Edwart to bite her and transform her into his eternal bride, especially when he seems to find girls so repulsive?

Complete with romance, danger, insufficient parental guardianship, creepy stalker-like behavior, and a vampire prom, Nightlight is the uproarious tale of a vampire-obsessed girl, looking for love in all the wrong places.
