 | Twilight (The Twilight Saga, Book 1) by Stephenie Meyer
Buy new: $6.04 / Used from: $4.74 A great book that really pulls you in and lets you relate to the characters, even though there is some supernatural involved. I read the entire thing in one day.

|
 | New Moon (The Twilight Saga, Book 2) by Stephenie Meyer

This is an amazing and touching play that anyone can appreciate.

|
