I think it's Twilight when Bella, Edward, and Jacob meet and the story begins.

Breaking Dawn is my favorite because Bella finally turns and becomes what she's wanted from the beginning.

My favorite is Breaking Dawn because it's still entertaining to read the highs and lows of Bella's life as her love story finishes.

My favorite is Breaking Dawn because it brings together the characters and myths of the Twilight world.

I love the Twilight Saga & I have read them all so many times but my all time favorite is Twilight because that is the beginning of how Bella & Edward met. Its basically the introduction of their love story & how true love conquers all.

I would say The Host because the stakes are higher. It's life or death for everyone.

The Host is an amazing book and is by far my favorite of Stephanie Meyer's works. The sci-fi feel to it is much more entertaining and captivating than the Twilight series, which I also loved

The Host was an exceptional book that explored what it meant to be human. It was also more than just a romance novel, which is more than I can say for the Twilight series. I am definitely looking forward to the movie adaptation of the Host since it looks like it will be more enjoyable than the Twilight movies.

Stephenie Meyer's has done an Excellent job in writing a whole different world of Vampires with her Twilight Saga Books. She has introduced us to a new style of Vampires that don't match up to our traditional Anne Rice stories. I love the way she wrote Twilight in Bella's Point of View. I also would love and hope to read Midnight Sun in Edward's Point of View if Mrs. Meyer's would ever change her mind to do so. The Host is completely the opposite of The Twilight World. If I should need to pick my favorite book from Stephenie Meyer's Collection: I would say I just simply can't since I love all her talented work. Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, The Short Life of Bree, Breaking Dawn, The Host... I Love them all... Thanks!

I love all her books, but I would have to say that my favorite is Twilight. It was the first to instroduce me to the Cullens and I have loved all the them after that. I just wish she would write more of them. I have not read the Host yet but I plan too because my sister loved it and suggested I read it.

Love to see read this book,send my way

I think my favorite book is New Moon, the ending when Bella and Edward are finally back in the same room and finally confessing how much they mean to each other is so touching.
therealbella said...
Man, that is a really tough one. I love all of her books. If I have to choose though I think it would have to be New Moon. It was the most emotionally envolved and we were introduced to Jacob. It also gave us someone else to root for. It was just a really good book that left you wanting more.

I would definitely say the Host. I love Twilight but the Host is just so much more sci-fi and adult. I wish I could get everyone to read it - maybe this movie will encourage some people!

Breaking Dawn is my favorite because it had the most actin of all her twilight saga books and I love the way she tied it all together and painted a picture of everything for you as you read.
Swampgirl said...
Breaking Dawn was a very good read. She closed out that story in a very good way.
"Welcome to the party, pal."
"I am serious... and don't call me Shirley."
"When am I gonna learn how to punch?"
"These go to eleven."
"Benjamin, have you ever been severely beaten about the face & neck?"
"Just keep swimming, swimming, swimming."
"You're gonna need a bigger boat."
"Jessica's got cable."
"Squirrel!"
