Review:
I've been meaning to write this review for a while, but every time I sat down to do it, something came up. So today, it's my day off and I have nothing to do but clean later. It's raining outside, the air is cool, and I'm as comfortable as I could be. Fall is in the air and I cannot wait.

If you don't already know, I am a huge Twilight fan. I've loved it from the very beginning and I'm still crazy over it. So I was excited when I learned this book was being done. I pre-ordered it as soon as it was available, but my husband and I moved to Ohio and my mother ended up getting the package. She kept forgetting to send it to me, and when we moved back...she lost it. So after a few months, I finally got to read it. I was not disappointed.

This book was amazing, beautiful words, and illustrations fit for them. The Twilight Saga: The Official Illustrated Guide is a very in depth view at the characters and backstory. An illustrated journey into the world of Twilight. It makes me almost desperate to re-read the series.

There's so much information that we, as readers, would never have known about the characters, events, and mysteries in the world of Stephenie Myer and her books.

I only had one complaint about this book. At times it seemed very repetitive, but honestly, with a book like this, there's no way it can't be repetitive at some point, with all the characters and their stories weaving together in so many different ways.

This is a must-read for fans of The Twilight Saga.
