Discussion Questions
 * Who are the main characters?
 * Who is the protaganist and antaganist so far?
 * What happen on days in school when it was sunny out?
 * Who is Bella Swan? Where is she from? Why did she move?

MEETING NOTES: This week we talked about what happened during the book. We went over the characters, plot, and themes. We really like the book so far. We also talked about Bella's move and her relationship with her parents. Then we talked about Edward's siblings. We thought it was a little weird how they all lived in the same house and were adopted brothers and sisters; they were dating each other. Finally we talked about how Edward ignores Bella and even tries to switch out of her biology class. The book is an easy read and is very interesting.

Discussion Questions: 1.What is going on right now? 2. What is Edwards secret? 3. How does Bella feel about the secret? 4. What did Bella think why Edward was not in school? 5. Why did Bella faint?

Meeting Notes: The book is getting really good. Bella and Edward are finally friendly and they are starting to like each other. Edward could not take Bella's amazing smell when she walked into biology class. She saw blood and fainted because she could not handle it. He had to leave for a while. They hung out a few times and she knew something about Edward was not normal. He finally told her his big secret. Edward is a vampire. He told Bella to be scared and stay away but she likes him too much and he loves and cares about her but he really does not want to hurt her. She is not afraid of him.

Discussion Questions: 1. Why won't Edward answer all Bella's questions? 2. Why does Edward think that it is a danger to Bella to be friends with her? 3. What does Bella's dad think of Edward? 4. Why did the Cullen's always play baseball in the thunderstorm? 5. Why do the Cullen's have to end the game early?

Meeting Notes: Edward will not answer all of Bella's questions because he just doesn't really want her to know or find out what she asks about. Edward thinks that it is a danger to Bellla to be friends with her because he is a vampire, he knows that he can hurt her. He is trained not too but he still can get out of control and kill her and he doesn't want to hurt her. He loves her. Bella's dad does not hate Edward, but he does not really like him. Charlie thinks there is something stange about Edward since he does not know the secret, and Edward does act slightly different from a human. The Cullens do not have a lot of outdoor time because they are not like regular people. They play baseball during thunderstorms because they are so strong that they pitch the ball so fast and hit the ball so hard that it makes a loud noise like thunder, so they cannot play on a regular day because people will hear the loud noises and try and find out what it is. Something scary happened. The other family of vampires heard the Cullens playing baseball, and stopped by. They smelt the human who was Bella and now they are chasing after her.

Disscussion Questions: 1. Where does Bella go after James sees her at the baseball game? 2. What does Bella have to tell Charie so she can get out of the house? 3. What vision about Bella does Alice see? 4. How does Bella escape from the airport? 5. Where does Bella ask the taxi driver to take Bella?

Meeting Notes: This book is amazing. Everyone in our group has more to talk about and more questions that keep us interested. Since it's getting near the end of the book a lot of things are happening now. Since more events are occurring quicker the book is easier to read. In the book we learned why James the hunter is chasing after Bella. Edward and his family are determined to save her. Were not to sure how far Edward will actually go to save her, because it might result in someone dieing.
