Twilight Surprise

The much-anticipated tenth anniversary edition of Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight has arrived in stores from today, but it may not quite be the book fans have imagined.

81qBmqMWSvL“I’M SO SORRY,” writes Meyer in a foreword explaining how she’d been asked to write some extra content for Twilight’s 10th anniversary. “I know there is going to be a lot of wailing and gnashing of teeth because this new bonus material is A, not entirely new, but mostly B, not Midnight Sun” (her unreleased companion novel to Twilight, written from Edward’s point of view, which was abandoned after chapters were leaked onto the internet).

Inspired by feedback she received on the original novel, Meyer has reinvented her original story, reversing the genders of Edwards and Bella, along with most of the other characters in over 400 pages of bonus content. So for all you twilight team players out there, you will now get to choose between Team Edythe & Team Jules (we see some new t-shirts forming already).

But we’ll let her tell you more about it:
