Twilight: pages 5-25

Isabella Swan "Bella" decides to move from sunny Phoenix,Arizona to rainy Forks,Washington to live with her father Charlie, in order to allow her mother to travel with her new husband, Phil Dwyer, a "minor league" baseball player. Even though she never had many friends in Phoenix, Bella quickly discovers she is the new kid and everyone is extremely curious and envy of her in Forks, where she is quickly befriended by several students. Much to her embarrassment, she discovers that several boys are going out of there way for her attention. Bella finds Forks a bit repetitive and lacking in joy. She never liked the rainy city when she was a little kid, and even referred to it in Twilight as her "own personal hell on earth". However, there is one exception to this boring life in forks and his name is Edward Cullen, the gorgeous, mysterious boy she sits next to in her biology class.
