What is 'Midnight Sun' about by Stephenie Meyer?

Answer 1

Bella has a small birthday party with the Cullen's at their house and gets a paper cut from her birthday presents wrapping paper, Jasper who is the newest to the family still cant resist blood so lunges at Bella. Edward knocks Jasper back to save Bella and succeeds It was high time the Cullen's started to move because people would start to recognize they weren't ageing so Edward takes Bella to the woods to talk to her. Edward breaks up with Bella to protect her because she nearly died at her little birthday bash and he doesn't want to hurt her again. He leaves her in the woods and she lays down and sleeps. Her life was miserable and Jacob Black helped her out and they started to fall in love. Alice ( Edwards sister) Had a vision of Bella jumping off a cliff and dieing so Edward goes to the royal, foreign clan (the Volturi), who by the way are the leaders of the vampires. He wants to expose himself to the humans who live there so they scarper and the Volturi don't get any blood so they get annoyed and kill him because he cannot live without Bella being alive. What Alice didn't know was that Bella had been jumping off for fun and Jacob saved her so when Alice found out she came to tell Bella about Edward. They traveled to Italy (where the Volturi lives) to get Edward and save him just in time before he went out into the light to reveal his shimmering vampire skin. Part of the Volturi clan see them and take them to the top room of their home. They are let go only if Bella becomes a vampire soon because humans cant know about vampires... AND THEN THEY GO HOME SAFELY SOON TO HAVE MORE ADVENTURES!! :)

Answer 3

As to why the publishers picked the tulip, just look up tulips online and you'll find lots of answers....

"The meaning of tulips is generally perfect love. Like many flowers, different colors of tulips also often carry their own significance. Red tulips are most strongly associated with true love... White tulips are used to claim worthiness or to send a message of forgiveness. Variegated tulips, once among the most popular varieties due to their striking color patterns, represent beautiful eyes."

"A Turkish legend may be responsible for the red tulip's symbolism. The story goes that a prince named Farhad was love struck by a maiden named Shirin. When Farhad learned that Shirin had been killed, he was so overcome with grief that he killed himself - riding his horse over the edge of a cliff. It's said that a scarlet tulip sprang up from each droplet of his blood, giving the red tulip the meaning "perfect love."

Answer 5

New Moon starts off with Bella's 18th birthday i believe and her getting a paper cut at the Cullen's house. Since they're a house of vampires, Jasper, the last person to join the coven can't control himself so he lunges toward Bella. Instinctively, Edward pushes Bella out of danger but she gets knocked into broken glass which Dr. Cullen has to take out. Because of that scene, Edward decides to leave Bella telling her he doesn't want to be with her anymore. This crushes her and she isn't herself for ages. Until she hangs out with Jacob Black before he finds out that he was a werewolf. Laurent and Victoria both make an appearance in the book. Laurent was killed by the wolf pack and Bella finds out Jacob is a werewolf by a dream The book just talks about Bella's relationship with her best friend Jacob. They like each other but she can't forget Edward, her soul mate. She puts herself in danger because whenever she does, she sees and hears Edward warning her that she promised him that she would stay out of trouble. Some of the crazy things she did was ride motorcycles that Jacob fixed up, walk close to strangers near a bar which she thought were the perverts from Twilight, and cliff diving. While Bella was cliff diving she didn't check the current so she almost drowned to be only saved by JACOB! (: They go back to find Alice at Bella's house. She saw a premonition that Bella jumped off that cliff to suicide. Edward finds out and calls the house, but Jacob picks up and tells him that Charlie went to a funeral. Not distinguishing who's funeral it was for since Harry Clearwater dies. Edward thinks it's Bella's funeral so he goes to Rome to provoke the Volturi. Alice and Bella rush to Rome saving Edward just in time before he stepped in direct sunlight. As they're leaving, 3 people from the Volturi show up and tells them Aro requests to see them. They meet and fight. They let Bella go only because Alice tells them they plan on turning her and shows Aro the vision. They leave, returning to Forks they see Jacob outside. He tells her father that she has been riding motorcycle so Charlie grounds her and forbids Edward from "stepping one foot through the door" since he was the reason his daughter disappeared for 3 days.

Stepheine Meyer said she will publish Midnight Sun but she has to finish with the Twilight Saga first then will continue to work on it.

Answer 7

Isabella "Bella" Marie Swan is thrown an eighteenth birthday party by Alice and Edward Cullen, the vampire she loves, and the rest of their vampire family. While unwrapping a gift, the paper cuts Bella's finger. Jasper, the newest member of the 'family' to attempt a non-human diet, leaps for Bella, overwhelmed by the scent of blood. Edward and his family protect Bella, but the realization of the danger Bella faces due to her proximity to vampires terrifies him. Edward reveals that he believes vampires are soulless creatures who will not experience an afterlife. Edward constantly struggles with his relationship with Bella because he does not want to turn Bella into a damned creature. Edward convinces Bella that he doesn't want her anymore, and he and his family depart from Forks in an attempt to keep her safe.

Four months pass and Bella has become a "zombie," existing but not really living. Trying to please her father, Charlie, Bella goes to a movie with her friend Jessica. When Bella spots a group of men in an alleyway, she remembers a time when Edward save her before, and decides to approach the men. Bella then hears Edward's voice in her head, warning her to stay away from them. Believing she may be on the verge of insanity, she concludes her subconscious mind is helping her believe that Edward cares whether she lives or dies. Thinking that the delusions are triggered by recklessness or being in a dangerous situation, she seeks other ways to trigger Edward's voice.

Jacob Black, Bella's friend from the nearby reservation, returns in New Moon. Bella finds two motorcycles on the side of the road and decides that they are the perfect way to hear Edward's voice. However, they need work and she remembers that Jacob has some mechanical skills. Jacob agrees to fix them and teach Bella how to ride. When Bella rides, Edward's voice scolds her for being "reckless and childish and idiotic." Jacob and Bella become very close friends, with Bella relying on his warmth and friendship in order to heal from Edward's leaving. Jacob is romantically interested in Bella, even though she makes it clear that she wants nothing more than friendship with him.

Jacob suddenly becomes very ill and fevered, but Bella faces firm resistance when she tries to contact him. Finally, Bella contacts him, only to learn that Jacob has become a follower of Sam Uley. Anxious without Jacob in her life, Bella fears she may slip back into her "zombie phase." Desperate, she returns to Edward's meadow in an attempt to get close to a past memory. There, she runs into the vampire Laurent, who tries to attack her. When a pack of giant wolves appear and scare off Laurent, Bella escapes.

Bella confronts Jacob, who is forbidden to explain anything to her. However, he tells her that she already knows because he told her the first night they met. Bella eventually recalls a story about werewolves and vampires and realizes that Jacob, and the rest of Sam Uley's gang, are werewolves.

Bella's life becomes even more difficult when Victoria arrives in Forks. Victoria seeks to avenge her mate, the vicious tracker vampire James the Cullens destroyed in Twilight. Rather than kill Edward, Victoria sees killing Edward's "mate" as a fair trade, not realizing that Edward and his family have left Forks. It is up to Jacob and his werewolf pack to protect Bella from Victoria's revenge. Bella spends most of her time wandering around alone since Jacob is often away with the pack searching for any sign of Victoria. She soon gets frustrated, desperate to hear Edward's voice. Although she had planned to try cliff diving with Jacob, she cannot wait, and jumps alone. The weather is tumultuous, and the current pulls Bella under. She hears Edward's voice pleading with her to try to fight the water, but soon she is too fatigued and resigns herself to death. Her last thoughts are "Goodbye, I love you," before Jacob saves her life.

Afterward Bella and Jacob learn that Harry Clearwater, a friend of their fathers, has passed away. Jacob then takes Bella home, where she finds Alice waiting for her. Bella rejoices in Alice returning but soon realizes that it is only temporary. Using her gift of seeing visions of the future, Alice "saw" Bella jump off the cliff and thought that she was committing suicide. She did not see Jacob save her because, as she later finds out, she cannot see werewolves in her visions.

During Alice's stay, Jacob is angry that Bella chose the "bloodsucker" over him. During Bella and Jacob's argument, Edward, posing as Carlisle, calls Bella's house. When Edward asks for Charlie, Jacob, who answered the phone, informs him that Charlie is "at the funeral." Although Jacob means Harry Clearwater's funeral, Edward mistakenly believes that Bella has died. Not wanting to live in a world without Bella, Edward travels to Volterra, Italy to anger the Volturi, a "royal" vampire family, into killing him by exposing the existence of vampires.

Bella and Alice rush to Italy and save Edward just in time. The three of them meet with Aro, a Volturi leader who can read minds through touch. Aro provides them with an ultimatum: either, Bella, as a human who knows of the existence of vampires, must die, or be turned into a vampire. Although Edward rejects both options, Alice shows Aro that Bella will become a vampire and the trio are released.

Bella and the Cullen family all return to Forks. Edward confesses to Bella that he left in an attempt to protect her. Bella desperately wants to become a vampire so she can remain with Edward, but Edward refuses. Bella then asks the Cullens to vote on whether they feel Bella should be changed into a vampire. All but Rosalie and Edward agree that she should be changed. Edward, who abhors the idea of Bella becoming a vampire, convinces Carlisle to wait until after graduation to change Bella. Edward offers to change Bella himself, but conditions his offer on Bella's agreement to marry him. Bella is terrified of marriage, and refuses.

In the epilogue, Bella thinks back to her "pre-zombie" state and says that "it was as if the last eight months were just a disturbing nightmare." Charlie is furious with Bella for her unexplained three-day absence, but she knows that with Edward at her side, everything will be okay.

Answer 8

its Bella's birthday and Alice throws her a small birthday party.But on some rapping paper she cuts her finger in a house of six vampires!!!! NOT A GOOD IDEA !!!

also Eward leaves :(

he does it for her own good thinking she might get over him and move on even when he's hurting himself too.But Bella can't live without him and goes in to a major breakdown that's when she becomes friends with Jacob, who turns out to be a little more than just your average 16 year old...

then when Alice sees Bella jump off a cliff and die ( well you'll have to read the book for this part to make sense) Eward goes off to die himself so he maybe with her after death. the only problem is she didn't die.

will she make it in time to save Edward???
