Hey Guys!
Welcome back to Book Travelling Thursdays! A tag set up by Catia @ The Girl Who Read Too Much and Danielle @ Danielle’s Book Blog. Be sure to check out both their pages and to find more information about this tag visit them on their Goodreads Group Page.
This week’s theme is A Book You’re Thankful for – I decided to choose Twilight by Stephenie Meyer for this one. Why?
Well whilst in school I liked to read but I would never read for fun only when I was forced to for my English lessons until I picked up Twilight. I fell in love with this series to the point I would re-read the series every week. Twilight made me fall in love with reading for pleasure too, without this series I wouldn’t have known the amount of happiness I could get from reading at home and escaping into a new world.
I owe the series a-lot of gratitude.

Favourite Covers:
These are actually the two covers I own myself, the original Black Cover was my first copy and the white cover is my second copy and it is simply gorgeous. The pages are outlined in red and the bookspine has Twilight written in Red writing. It looks gorgeous and truly stands out on your bookshelf, I only ever purchased the first book with the white cover but maybe one day I will own the rest so I have the full white collection… when I have that beauty and the beast library I constantly dream about.
I can’t actually decide which one of the others I like least, because I’m not really a fan of any of them. I don’t like when book covers have models on them, I like being able to mentally envision the character for myself rather than being influenced by the one on the cover.
If I saw the German cover on a bookshelf I think I would also think it was a Victorian type book, it reminds me of Jane Austen and Jane Eyre. Rather than a contemporary vampire romance novel.
There we have my Book Travelling Thursday!

Which of these covers are also your favourite and least favourite?
I’m thankful for Twilight as well I mean it started so many people reading more so that is one big yes in my books, your white edition is beautiful! Another series I’m thankful for is Heaven and Flowers in the Attic there such soap opera books but they made me love reading when I was a teen so I’ll always be thankful for them 😀 Great post!

It’s great to see someone else who is thankful for Twilight and who it got them into reading more too. I see such mixed opinions on it now!
