I was just wondering how she got the titles for the books because I don't think there anything to do with the books themselves. But I might just not of noticed it.

  1. I just always thought "Twilight" cause it's like the end of life the way Bella has known it. "New Moon" because it's about Jacob the whole werewolf thing, "Eclipse" because Edward wins out over Jacob. "Breaking Dawn" because it's the beginning a their new life.


  2. i donno what twilight meant

    new moon- a new moon is when the moon doesnt show, so its the darkest night. in the book it was bellas darkest time without edward

    eclipse-its when the sun is covered by the moon. jacob was the sun and edward was the moon. basically because bella chose edward over jacob

    i donno breaking dawn either lol :]

  3. yeah it does say it in the book somewhere cause while i was starting to read the book i was wondering that and ive found that it says twilight in twilight new moon in new moon and etc.

  4. She explained that on her website-

    Why did you pick the title Twilight?

    Twilight was not the easiest book to title. When I started sending out queries, I called it Forks for lack of a better idea. The first thing my agent advised me was that the title was going to have to change. We played around with a lot of different titles, and nothing seemed to convey the right feel. We brainstormed through emails for about a week. The word twilight was on a list of "words with atmosphere" that I sent her. Though these words were meant to be used in combination with something else, the word twilight stood out to both of us. We decided to try it out, and, after a little adjustment time, it started to work for both of us. It isn't absolutely perfect; to be honest, I don't think there is a perfect title for this book (or if there is, I've never heard it). When I look at the titles other countries have used (examples: Germany: Bis zum Morgengrauen which is "Until Dawn" or "Bite" if you add an "s" to make it "biss" (if you look at the German book cover on the Twilight International page); Finland: "Temptation;" France: "Fascination;" and Japan, which has split it into three separate books: "The Boy Whom I Love is a Vampire," "Blood Tastes Sadness," and "The Vampire Family in the Darkness."), it seems like I might be right about that. (Both New Moon and Eclipse were much easier to title, and the titles also fit better.)

    There are also sentences in each of the books that have to do with the title.



    "Twilight. Another ending. No matter how perfect the day is, it always has to end." -Edward, Twilight

    Not tonight. Tonight the sky was utterly black. Perhaps there was no moon tonight - a lunar eclipse, a new moon - New Moon

    "The clouds I can handle. But I can't fight with an eclipse." - Jacob, Eclipse

    But I can't find that one Breaking Dawn quote.

  5. The title of each book is used in a sentence at least once in each book.

    Plus, Twilight is the beginning;

    Then New Moon;

    Then Eclipse;

    Then Breaking Dawn.

    Lifelike stages.
