Books To Read if You Love the Twilight Series

by Laurie Espino

The year is 2005; Grey’s Anatomy’s first episode premiered, Mariah Carey was at the top of the music industry with her comeback album, The Emancipation of Mimi, and MySpace was the social media platform of choice. It’s hard to believe two decades have passed since the Twilight book and movie series turned sparkly vampires into a pop culture cornerstone. With the saga’s 20th anniversary around the corner, there’s no better time to jump back into the vampire lore. Whether you were Team Edward or Team Jacob, here are 10 books to sink your teeth into.

    In Nightfall

    by Suzanne Young

    Welcome to Nightfall, Oregon, a beachside town that’s so quaint it borders on boring. Theo and her brother, Marco, are stuck here for the summer with their superstitious grandmother. There’s one rule they must obey: Be home before dark. But the troublesome siblings were never ones to follow the rules … Villainous vampires have never looked so good in this deliciously chilling thriller from New York Times bestselling author Suzanne Young.

    A Werewolf’s Guide to Seducing a Vampire

    by Sarah Hawley

    If the Twilight Saga taught us anything, it’s that vampires and werewolves hate each other — but not in this cute rom-com! Werewolf Ben Rosewood never expected to encounter a centuries-old vampire when he unwittingly bought an enchanted crystal, but that’s precisely what happened. Eleonore Bettencourt-Devereux is a vampire ready for revenge. The unlikely pair find themselves working together in more ways than one. With her signature zany humor, Hawley delivers an unlike love story full of fangs and magic.

    Bella spent the better part of half the first book trying to figure out what Edward’s eccentricities meant. Cassie Greenberg knows there’s something off with her new roommate, Frederick J. Fitzwilliam. When she finds a bag of blood in the refrigerator, she gets a pretty good idea of what she’s dealing with. Inventive and refreshing, this rom-com will fill you with emotions and have you wishing you had your own centuries-old vampire boyfriend to swoon over.
