Q&A: I found the book through my friend Megan. This book impacted me because, for me, it was not a usual, normal book I would read. It is a fantasy book, and after I read it, I started to like it. After I finished the first two chapters of the book, it changed my opinion. The book also gave me a different way of looking upon things, especially about love. I would recommend this book because it is not a normal love story. I would also say it is not fully about romantic love, but also about family love, this author has put amazing work into this story. Her Twilight series is really great to read. I would recommend her because her style of writing is different from most authors. There is an underlying message in the book. The message is about love and doing whatever it takes for it, not only romantic love but also love for the family. Making sacrifices for a person one truly cares about is worth fighting for. Stephenie Meyer shows many examples throughout the book of the risks Bella takes for her family and for the love for Edward.
