Anontation: Bella Swan has never been an "it" girl, but upon moving from Phoneix, AZ to small-town Forks, WA she has seemingly become to object of desire for all the males. Except for one, his obvious dislike makes her wonder why he's offended and why on earth she is so drawn to him.

Booktalk: I don't think most people wake up in the morning and hope to die today. And it's not like I crave death...it's just I crave a permanently altered state that some day I will attain. Nor do I think most people allow their attractions to something--or someone who could kill you in an instant, but I can't help it. I don't like blood but I do love him. And I know he's drawn to me, and I know it's not just because of my blood!
