  7. The book i raeding is called twiligh.
    This is about a girl ,isabella swan, who moves to a town called folks where she meets edward cullen and falls in love but doesn't know that he is really a vampier who has a grudge over her best freind jacoube black.

    I would recomend this to people who like a little bit of horror, Adventure and fantasy.

    I think this book is one of the best i have read and i would give it a nine out of ten.
